Designing Interior Expansion Joints for Aesthetics & Functionality requires an understanding of building science and properties of the adjacent components that expansion joints bisect. Sika Emseal offers a complete line of interior expansion joint solutions that aesthetically blend into the interior design and are functional systems providing fire resistance, sound attenuation, thermal & moisture protection, and traffic durability creating a comfortable built lived-in environment.
This video explains how to take field measurements of structural expansion joints. How to measure along the joint run and when intersecting building components like columns, walls and parapets is illustrated through animation. Expansion joint measurements taken and recorded by this method can then be translated into CAD Approval Drawings, become the basis of a purchase order, as well become the production drawings for fabrication of transitions and terminations connected to long runs of joint material by our manufacturing team.
