Modified BESISTA Tension Rod System [M8]

BESISTA® International, a German firm specializing in tension and compression rod systems, manufactures the tension discs in question. They're utilized as structural components across various civil engineering projects. These discs have been integral to constructing landmark buildings like Rathaus Galerie in Essen, Germany, TUI Arena in Hannover, and PwC Parkside in Zurich, Switzerland. In a finite element analysis comparing the original and modified designs, it was observed that the Von-Mises stress around the bolt hole (slot in the new design) reduced significantly, despite a 10% increase in load application. The original disc's photo serves as reference from the company website: http://besista.eu/en/special-elements/cast-circular-discs-wind-bracings-tension-rod-system/.
