Expansion profiles are mounted in concrete floor plates to compensate movements in plate sections. Concrete plates are exposed to internal and external pressures. Damage occurs mainly at the edges of plates near to connections. Connection of floor plates should compensate their mutual horizontal movements (perpendicular and parallel to the expansion joint) which are usually caused by thermal expansion and shrinkage of concrete. At the same time the connection must also block vertical movements of floor elements which is a consequence of traffic, heavy loads and uneven passive earth pressure.
Conecto Sinus expansion joints allow for a movement between floor plates:
Plastic Conecto Sinus joint is innovation solution on the expansion joints market. Due to unique construction and best quality materials it gives feeling when driving over it, that there is no joint on the floor. Using sinusoid joints you could avoid floor cracking and difficult and expensive reparations. Conecto Sinus profiles completely absorb shocks and they are completely invisible in usage. Usage of Conecto Sinus joints minimizes operation costs. They reduce problem of damaged fork-lift wheels, loading equipment and goods destruction due to shocks. The system is complete, easy to install and ready for application.
Conecto Sinus system allows for the free movement of forklifts which wheels are particularly damaging for wrong made expansion joints.
