Expansion Joint Covers

An expansion joint in a building is a deliberate gap or separation built into the structure to accommodate movement caused by thermal expansion and contraction, seismic activity, or ground settlement. These joints help prevent cracks, wall separation, and other damages by absorbing the natural movement of building materials. Expansion joints are essentially a planned discontinuity in the structure, allowing different sections to move independently.  The size and design of the expansion joint depend on the type of material, the expected movement, and the building's location and design.
