Expansion joints
They permit displacements and rotations between abutted structural parts, ensuring continuity of the carriageway and watertightness.
They come in a wide range of formats, each format having a certain movement range to accommodate, with only the types of materials used remaining constant.
Based on a design of reinforced rubber modular elements, MACROAD expansion joints offer the following advantages:
- simple and cost-effective inspections and maintenance
- minimal noise and vibration
- ultimate comfort for passengers in transit
- optimum functioning and durability of all components
- minimal interference with the structure
- format easily adjusted to many shapes to accommodate layout of structure and design engineers' preference
- several different types of anchorage to suit customer requirement.
The series of expansion joints available are labelled as follows:
