ABSTRACT:
A method of joining a first structure to a second structure using a joint element. The joint element has a base and at least two legs extending from the base and the legs define a slot having opposing sides and a bottom. The method comprises attaching the joint element to the first structure and inserting the second structure into the slot. The method further includes injecting an adhesive into the slot. The method also includes ensuring a cavity is formed between the bottom of the slot and the second structure and the cavity is substantially free of adhesive.
