ENGINEERED CONCRETE FLOOR SYSTEMS


TYPE G


SLIDING COVER PLATE JOINT

Type G provides a sliding cover plate joint system for a range of floors where high joint movement occurs due to the wide joint spacing. Type G is used in stressed slabs, jointless (high dosage) steel fibre slabs and shrinkage compensating concrete slabs. It has been in use since 2003. A robust cover plate slides over the joint as floor shrinkage occurs. Three versions (Types G45, G65, and G85) provide for expected joint width openings up to 85mm.
