Steelflex® Strip Seal Expansion Joint Systems

For decades, cast-in-place Steelflex® Strip Seal Expansion Joint Systems have provided superior watertight performance and longevity over bolt-down, segmental and pourable expansion joint systems. Because of this proven performance, Steelflex® Strip Seal Expansion Joint Systems have become the most preferred choice of owners and specifying engineers around the world for accommodating up to 127mm (five inches) of total structural movement.
[ 80mm movement as per MORTH specification]

 

 

 

 



System Components
Cast-in-place Steelflex® Strip Seal Expansion Joint Systems consist of two
proprietary components: steel rail profiles and a matching neoprene sealing element.

Steel Rail Profiles
Steelflex® rail profiles are one-piece construction, manufactured using innovative hot rolled/non-machined, non welded. All proprietary steel rails are available in ASTM A36 or ASTM A588/A572 steel grades.
Recent design improvements have eliminated all horizontal
"legs" on the proprietary steel rail profiles to facilitate proper concrete placement during installation. Independent field and laboratory testing has demonstrated that improperly consolidated concrete around the steel rail, anchorage, and/or reinforcement could lead to performance issues. Anchorage of the proprietary steel rail profile into the dec_ concrete is the primary load carrying mechanism and, therefore, is it critical to ensure long-term performance.
Steelflex® SSCM2 rail profile has become widely accepted worldwide as an economical standard in the industry. Other proprietary steel profiles are also available to satisfy your specific project needs.

This expansion joint system confirms to the specification of IRC
and approved by MORTH vide circular no. RW/NH/34059/2/2001/S&R(B) Dt. 03.02.2003
