Modular Expansion Joints
The modular expansion joint consists of multiple pieces to provide greater than 80 mm movement. It has horizontal moving capacities which continue such as 160 mm, 240 mm, 320 mm, 400 mm, 480 mm, 560 mm, and so on. For use in the transverse direction in the bridges, the carrier is fixed to the structure by means of structured ropes The modular expansion joints are designed taking into consideration the required movement capacity. This type of expansion joints is used in situations where the movements to take place on a bridge exceed the single-span joint capacity. Sealing is provided with rubber gasket. Thus, water and chemicals are prevented from damaging infrastructure and superstructure. Moreover, the steel elements are resistant to corrosion and have high fatigue strength. They radiate less noise. Each of our expansion joints is subjected to static calculations based on the EN and AASHTO H30-S24 load standards. Also used steel and rubber material are produced according to EN standards. Modular joints are produced accordance to ISO 9001.
