Expansion Joint

Expansion Joints are an assembly designed to safely absorb the temperature-induced expansion and contraction of construction materials, to absorb vibration, to hold parts together, or to allow movement due to ground settlement or earthquakes. They are commonly found between sections of buildings, bridges, sidewalks, railway tracks, piping systems, ships, and other structures. An expansion joint is an assembly that is designed to absorb safely expansion and contraction of different construction materials caused by heat. These joints also absorb vibration and permit movement due to earthquakes and ground settlement.
