Abstract
An element is provided for connecting the chords of a lattice system, which consists of upper chords and lower chords, between which struts and/or stays are arranged, to a telescopic boom head. Thereby, the lower chords are directly connected to the telescopic boom head by means of bolts, while the upper chords can be connected to the telescopic boom head by a connecting element of variable length in such a way that—with respect to the connection of the lower chords—the upper chords can be connected to one another at a variable angle, and wherein the connecting element consists of two butt straps which can each be fastened at one end of mutually facing ends of the upper chords and can be connected to one another at different points.
