Reinforced Rubber Joints For Large Movement

MEG TYPE

What are these?

They consist of a central plate covering the gap between the structural elements, vulcanised inside a rubber element.

Sliding is ensured by the presence of deformable rubber modules, vulcanised with steel plates and containing stainless anti-lifting steel bars.

The sliding capacity of the joint depends on the number of rubber modules of which it is composed. The system is designed so that, when the joint is cut vertically, at least one reinforcement element is always encountered.

The joint panel is 1.5 m in length and is supplied with rubber flashing for water collection and with the fixing system, consisting of anchor bolts, washers and self-locking nuts.
It has a water drainage system thanks to the insertion of an aluminium L-profile.

The joints are designed and manufactured in compliance with the international ETAG32 standard.
