Bitor Expansion Joint System Solution
Why Need Expansion Joint System?
Between these blocks some spaces are left as expansion joints. The location and width of these spaces are determined by structural engineers, who also will determine the load capacity of the profile selected.
An expansion joint is a space that crosses the whole structure of the building: floors, walls, facades and ceilings.
The structural expansion joints absorb the movements of the building to control and prevent from the apparition of different pathologies in the structure. They also isolate the encounters between different structural elements such as walls, pillars, sinks, etc. avoiding the transmission of stresses between them.
We are specialized in expansion joint system solutions. And we are a participating enterprise in the compilation of National Architectural Standard Design Atlas – 14J936.
