Stadium Expansion Joint Installation at Mets CitiField–SJS SYSTEM from EMSEAL

Structural expansion joints are design elements necessary for accommodating movements within structures. These movements are caused by thermal changes, wind, dynamic loading and unloading, and seismic forces. Even an enthusiastic, 42,000-fan-driven “wave” can cause differential vertical deflection at stadium expansion joints.

Because expansion joints bisect the entire structure, they are essentially a gap through every element of the building–floors, walls, foundations, roofs, bathrooms, suites, waterproofing, and structural supports. As such, these gaps through the building must be made watertight and insulated while at the same time must accommodate movement and traffic over the joint material.
