Bridge Expansion Joint System (BEJS) is a traffic-durable bridge and roadway expansion joint which provides a primary watertight seal. It is designed to handle harsh environmental conditions and features greater movement capability, better low temperature flexibility and higher temperature stability than other technologies.
Ideal for new construction or retrofit of failed bridge expansion joint systems
Bridge Expansion Joint System (BEJS) is a traffic-durable bridge and roadway expansion joint which provides a primary watertight seal. It is designed to handle harsh environmental conditions and features greater movement capability, better low temperature flexibility and higher temperature stability than other technologies. Non-invasive anchoring provides for quick turnaround and repairs. The BEJS System helps prevent and/or decrease maintenance costs to bridge bearing pads and support structures. Primarily designed for D.O.T./Infrastructure markets, it is ideal for new construction and retrofit of old or failed bridge expansion joint systems in: Concrete-to-concrete substrates / Rebuilt joint faces / Where demolition and removal of existing embedded metal angles is not feasible or affordable / As a lasting replacement for all failed liquid-sealant joints in parapets, sidewalks, jersey-barriers, etc.
The system is comprised of a precompressed, silicone-and-foam hybrid installed into field-applied epoxy adhesive on the joint faces, with the silicone bellows locked to the joint faces with a silicone sealant band. The BEJS SYSTEM features a hydrophobic acrylic impregnation infused into the cellular foam base material resulting in low-temperature flexibility not available in asphalt, wax, or isobutylene-based products.
Watertight, tensionless silicone bellows Traffic Durable Pre-compressed Primary Seal Uniquely handles skewed joints and shear movements Rapid Installation - New or Retrofit Non-invasive Anchoring Continuity of seal through curbs, sidewalks, parapets
Used to replace old or failed bridge expansion joint systems. Ideal for concrete-to-concrete substrates. For nosing material-repaired substrates. Also used for metal reinforced edges, as a replacement for failed bolt-down joint systems, and as a replacement for failed strip-seal joints. Ideal for phased night time maintenance. Use to seal control joints under continuous asphalt roadway surfaces or under asphaltic-plug joints.
