Exterior and Interior Wall Joint Installation in Washington and Oregon
Our rated and non-rated exterior wall joint installation includes tunnels, planters, cavity walls and a variety of facades like EIFS, CMU, block or brick. Our interior wall joint installation includes office buildings, hospitals, and mixed-use retail/condos.
In exterior walls, expansion joints are designed primarily to allow movement between adjoining wall sections due to thermal expansion, wind loads and seismic activity. They also seal out the elements like rain and wind, forming an essential part of the cladding system.
In interior walls, expansion joints provide room for adjoining wall sections to move while creating aesthetically pleasing joints between wall sections. As part of the firestop system, they also help prevent the spread of smoke and toxic gases during fires while minimizing the transmission of noise and odors between adjacent rooms.
In both interior and exterior applications, expansion joints are essential to the structural integrity and safety of a commercial building.
