A connection means of a building structure and a method of using same

Abuilding structure connecting means (1) and a method for connecting an end portion (3) of at least one first building element (5) having a thickness (T5), to an end portion (7) of at least one second building element (9), the connecting means (1) comprising: * a first joint element (11) for connection to the end portion (3) of the first building element (5); the first joint element (11) having a length substantially corresponding to the thickness (T5) of the first building element (5); * a second joint element (13) for connection to the end portion (7) of the second building element (9); and * at least one elongate member (20) for slidable engagement with at least one of the first joint element (11) and the second joint element (13), such that relative movement between the first joint element (11) and the second joint element (13) in at least one direction is prevented.
