The invention relates to a connecting method and to a connecting arrangement for tensioning at least one first and a second component (1, 2) to be tensioned relative to each other, in particular by way of a non-positive connection on all sides. The connecting arrangement comprises at least one first and a second component (1, 2) to be connected by way of a non-positive connection on all sides, a through-passage (20) of the components, a pin (3) extending from the first component (1) through the through-passage (20), a tensioning nut (4), which is screwed onto the pint (3) for bracing the components (1, 2), and a cone pair having an inner cone (60) with a slot (8) and an outer cone (50). Part of said cone pair is configured as a conical tensioning element (5), which is disposed between thecomponents and the tensioning nut for radial tensioning on the pin and is axially movable. A clamping nut (7) is screwed onto the conical tensioning element (5) and can be tensioned against a stop surface (21) of the second component (2) in order to limit a moving ability of the tensioning element (5).
