Expansion Joint Systems
Survey, supply, installation and replacement of floor, wall, roof, seismic, watertight and fire-rated expansion-joint systems.
Technical scope
Carry movement without sacrificing fire, water or traffic performance.
An expansion joint is a moving interface, not a gap to fill. Expected movement, joint width, substrate, traffic, water, fire rating, finish, transitions and adjacent waterproofing determine the correct system.
Vortexen can survey existing or new joints, coordinate technical selection, repair edges and substrates, install compatible systems and document transitions. Fire-rated assemblies remain matched to the actual joint and accepted evidence.
Required inputs
- Joint location and construction
- Nominal width and movement range
- Traffic, water and chemical exposure
- Required fire or acoustic rating
- Adjacent finishes and waterproofing
- Drawings, photos and access programme
Delivery route
- Survey width, movement, substrate and transitions
- Confirm performance and accepted system
- Coordinate waterproofing, fire and finish interfaces
- Prepare edges and install the joint assembly
- Test where specified and record every location
Evidence expected
- Joint schedule and measured condition
- System detail and acceptance evidence
- Substrate and installation inspection
- Water, movement or fire documentation where specified
