GXA-25 to GXA‑125 Aluminium 

Floor‑to‑Floor Expansion Joint Cover with Ribbed Deck

The GXA Surface-Line Series surface mounted floor-to-floor expansion joint covers are designed to be fixed directly through the side members, normally in applications where the requirement for a recess has been overlooked. The detail below shows a 16mm x 20mm recess in the slabs, which is only required for joints less than 57mm wide. This effectively increases the width of the structural joint the system will accommodate. The GXA Series is installed on top of the floor finish, the tapered ramp reduces bumps for wheeled traffic. These joints can be used in conjunction with many floor finishes such as concrete toppings, terrazzo, tile, timber, epoxy finishes etc. They would commonly be used in locations such as shopping centres, hotels, office foyers, schools, airports and other pedestrian traffic situations.
