Expansion joints are specifically designed to absorb movement caused by thermal expansion and contraction in buildings and structures.

In prefabricated buildings, materials like concrete and steel expand and contract with temperature changes.

Expansion joints provide the necessary flexibility to accommodate these movements and prevent cracking or structural damage.
Additional InformationRiveted joint:
- It is a rigid connection and does not accommodate expansion or contraction.
Welded joint:
- It is a strong, permanent connection with no allowance for movement.
Threaded joint:
- This is used for mechanical connections that are fixed, not flexible.
