Expansion joint

Concrete & Paving Materials
Expansion joint An expansion joint is a gap placed between sections of concrete to allow movement caused by temperature changes or structural expansion. Flexible filler material is typically installed within the joint.

Concrete expands and contracts as temperatures change throughout the year. Expansion joints provide space for this movement, helping reduce pressure that could otherwise damage adjacent slabs or structures. Proper joint placement is an important part of durable sidewalk, driveway, and curb construction.
