Expansion joints for bridges

Insametal manufactures supplies and installs expansion joints placed on bridges as a safety measure to prevent breakage in the bridge because of the expansion of its elements.

 

The expansion joint allows for providing an essential safety measurement that prevents possible breakages in the bridge by the dilation of elements

 

Dilation is caused when distinct elements increase their length because of meteorological conditions as can be temperature.

Expansion joints are composed of steel, adding more toughness to the structure and keeping a good lifetime of the structure. Insametal used to install these expansion joints in railway bridges.
