EXPANSION JOINTS

TS TYPE VEKKON EXPANSION JONITS

Expansion joints are integrated with bridge decks in order to accom modate the relative movement between the structure’s segments, as well as the movement between the superstructure itself and support abutmets. Such movements is the result of thermal expansion and contraction, creep and shrinkage of concrete, substructure settlement, live dynamic loads and other causes.

CARPET TYPE VEKKON EXPANSION JOINTS

Carpets show grooves at both ends. They are connected with special sealant material. All carpets are manufactured in middle position. Under earthquake loads the opening movement of joints can be approximately twice the normal tension movement. TYPES: T100, T160, T230, S120, S200, S250, S350
