| Emseal offers Migutrans expansion joint system  Emseal announces the availability of Migutrans floor expansion joints. A new line of durable expansion joints, Migutrans is ideal for resistance to point-loads in a variety of demanding traffic applications such as hospitals, shopping malls, airports, casinos, sports facilities, stadiums, and warehouses. The sophisticated design of Migutrans eliminates dangerous, noisy, unsightly and expensive joint deterioration as well as occupant and revenue disruption involved in replacing failed systems. The complete line of Migutrans options caters to a variety of design conditions in both new and retrofit construction.Wheel-and-axle-load ratings ensure suitability for use by virtually all vehicle types, from casino coin carts and mobile medical equipment to the heaviest forklifts, maintenance, and materials-handling equipment. Supplied in pre-assembled lengths, the surface-mounted or flush-recessed bolt-down Migutrans systems incorporate dirt-and dust-sealed, tilting and sliding interlocking components which accommodate horizontal opening and closing as well as differential lateral and vertical movements. Flooring point-loads are the number one destroyer of interior floor expansion joints and surrounding materials in any facility. Unlike 'rubber-and-rail' systems, which have a short life span, Migutrans offer a durable long-term solution. Another common joint bridging method, cover-plates and lightly constructed 'centering-bar-and-plate' systems, create slip, trip and noise hazards. The solid interlocking design of Migutrans ensures a smooth rolling surface while attenuating sound and handling transient floor loads. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
