Expansion joints are designed to accommodate movement within a building or structure. Concrete structures naturally expand and contract, causing the width of structural joints to increase or decrease. Our manufacturers offer a variety of expansion joint systems designed for different applications, including floor-to-floor, floor-to-wall, wall-to-wall, and seismic conditions.

Proper sizing and installation of an expansion joint are critical to its performance. We recommend confirming the actual minimum and maximum joint opening before installation because joint dimensions can change significantly. If an expansion joint is improperly sized for the expected movement, it can lead to product failure or costly replacement.
