                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My understanding is that they were covered by NZ Patent 264597 Floor to wall tie method of construction.</p>
<p>If you put that number in as the 'Case Number' at <a href="https://app.iponz.govt.nz/app/Extra/IP/PT/Qbe.aspx?sid=638858442939810825&amp;op=EXTRA_pt_qbe&amp;fcoOp=EXTRA__Default&amp;directAccess=true" target="true">NZ patent search</a> then you should find a couple of pdfs that describe the concept a bit.</p>
<p>As far as I know there hasn't been any specific testing on what they do as a diaphragm load path.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p> </p>
<p>So far I know it's a proprietary product cast into a wall panel to connect hollowcore floors and/or topping slabs.</p>
<p>Attached is the sort of detail I have, and that's about all I can find on google too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The building I'm assessing already has seating retrofitted, so primarily I need to know if these things provide any additional capacity to transfer diaphragm loads into the wall.</p>
