  2. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

    A expansion joint, or movement joint, is an assembly designed to hold parts together while safely absorbing temperature-induced expansion and contraction of building materials. They are commonly found between sections of buildings , bridges , sidewalks , railway tracks , piping systems , ships , and other structures.

  3. Pin and hanger assembly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_and_hanger_assembly

    Pin and hanger assembly. A pin and hanger assembly is used to connect two plate girders of a bridge.These assemblies are used to provide an expansion joint in the bridge. One beam (the anchor span) is set on a pier with a short section cantilevered out toward the next pier.

  4. Flashing (weatherproofing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashing_(weatherproofing)

    Flashing refers to thin pieces of impervious material installed to prevent the passage of water into a structure from a joint or as part of a weather resistant barrier system. In modern buildings, flashing is intended to decrease water penetration at objects such as chimneys , vent pipes, walls, windows and door openings to make buildings more ...

  5. Hinged expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinged_expansion_joint

    The expansion joint hinges provide for angular movement and will resist pressure thrust forces. [4] Individual hinged expansion joints used in piping systems are restricted to pure angular rotation by its hinges. As a pair, hinged expansion joints will function together to absorb lateral deflection.

  6. Slide plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_plate

    A slide plate is a linear bearing that may be part of the expansion joints of bridges, high temperature horizontal ducts of water-tube boilers and other mechanical or structural engineering applications. In each case one plate is fixed and the other slides on top as expansion or contraction occurs.

  7. Flare fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_fitting

    The tool used to flare tubing consists of a die that grips the tube, and either a mandrel or rolling cone is forced into the end of the tube to form the flare by cold working. The most common flare fitting standards in use today are the 45° SAE flare [ 2 ] [ 3 ] ,the 37° JIC flare, and the 37° AN flare.

  8. Joint (building) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_(building)

    A building joint is a junction where building elements meet without applying a static load from one element to another. When one or more of these vertical or horizontal elements that meet are required by the local building code to have a fire-resistance rating, the resulting opening that makes up the joint must be firestopped in order to restore the required compartmentalisation.

  9. Metal expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_expansion_joint

    They are differentiated according to the three basic types of movement: axial, angular and lateral expansion joints. Expansion joints have usage in various sectors, like energy production, paper industry, chemical industry, water treatment, oil and gas. Expansion joints can be used wherever thermal movements or vibration occurs in pipelines.
