JDV 4.190 – Seismic vertical expansion joint

The JDV 4.190 seismic vertical expansion joint

The JDV 4.190 seismic expansion joint is suitable for openings ranging from 80 mm to 200 mm. This recessed profile is aesthetically pleasing due to its discreet design and is intended to be covered with lightweight wall coverings. Self-centering, it accommodates movements of ±50%. The JDV 4.190 vertical expansion joint thus absorbs movements of up to ±100 mm.

This profile aligns perfectly with the JDH 5.190 floor expansion joint. Mechanical fasteners secure the profiles to the floor, interior walls, and ceiling. Depending on project requirements, the S dimensions of the profiles can be adjusted. Please consult us.

What is a vertical expansion joint?

A vertical expansion joint is an empty space, free of any material between two parts of a structure. These joints run the full height of a building. They are essential in large buildings because they help prevent cracks or damage to the structure over time. Seismic or standard expansion joints are designed to accommodate varying degrees of contraction, expansion, and shear movements. The engineering office determines the expected openings and movements of the expansion joints.
Vertical expansion joints are protected by profiles. At VEDA FRANCE, we offer a wide range of solutions: flexible sealing profiles such as our PSO in nitrile, cost-effective joint covers such as our CJP, expansion joints for small expansion movements such as our JDV 4.06, and more. Please feel free to contact our team for assistance in selecting the vertical expansion joint best suited to your needs.
