Expansion Joints


When buildings are connected there will be different settlement rates. There may be building sway, rotational movements, expansion and contraction.

What is an expansion joint?

  • An expansion joint is an opening within a structure, at a predetermined location, to absorb movement of the structure.
  • The joint allows for small movements which can be caused by high winds forcing the structure to sway.
  • Expansion joints prevent cracking / fracture at certain weak points of a building.
