Nystrom Specialty Building Products: Manufacturer of Building Products

A relief joint slices through buildings as if a knife sliced it into sections. In doing so the joint encounters many different systems and materials. Locating joints is an art, sometimes introducing a joint in one location introduces movement in a different location. In complex buildings such as airports, malls and hospitals, there are many wings. At each change in building direction an expansion joint is required. The 8 common building joint locations include:

1. Floors
2. Interior Walls
3. Ceilings
4. Exterior Walls
5. Floor-to-Wall
6. Wall-to-Wall
7. Ceiling-to-Wall
8. Roof
