JDV 4.02 aluminium joint covers installation

1. Check the opening of the seismic joint and determine the corresponding model from the technical data sheet.
2. If necessary, remove any material left in the joint. Surfaces must be clean and dry.
3. Check that joint edges are level.
4. Position the two side plates on either side of the vertical expansion joint and mark the holes.
5. Drill the holes. Vacuum supports and holes. Position fasteners.
6. Put 7 staples along the entire length of each 3lm of the seismic vertical expansion joint.
7. Position the central plate centered on the joint gap.
8. Clip on the first cap. Apply pressure with the palm of your hand evenly along the length. The installation of the covers should be done without resistance. Then clip on the second cap.
9. The JDV 4.02 vertical expansion joint is now in place. Take care to protect it during the construction phase.
