One of the requirements for large, commercial buildings is the ability to move without damage. 

While it may seem like a small detail in the grand scheme of construction, picking the right expansion joint covers will help ensure the building’s structural integrity. 

Ceiling expansion joints are essential in building design, especially when working with large or multi-structure buildings. 

You don’t really see them, but concrete floor expansion joints are a big deal in commercial buildings. They’re one of those hidden things that keep the place solid and safe. Picking the right ones can make a huge difference in how long your floor lasts.

A Guide for Construction and Engineering

In modern building construction, expansion joint design plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety, functionality, and longevity of structures. Properly designed joints accommodate movement due to thermal changes, seismic activity, and other forces that could reduce a structured lifespan.

As manufacturers of Expansion Joint Systems, we frequently encounter common mistakes that lead to bidding confusion and ultimately, costly change orders in construction projects. In this article, we will shed light on some of the prevalent issues found in construction documents, along with a three-step design process to minimize errors and ensure successful project outcomes.
