A relief joint slices through a building like cutting a section. In doing so, the joint encounters many different systems and materials. It is necessary to account for all these conditions and the factors effecting the joint: traffic (floor), moisture (exterior) as well as fire and sound separation.
Below are the eight common locations for expansion joints.
- Floors and Parking Decks
- Interior Walls
- Ceilings
- Exterior Walls
- Floor-to-Wall
- Wall-to-Wall
- Ceiling-to-Wall
- Roof
