Frequently Asked Questions
What expansion joint types are available?
We offer elastomeric, modular strip, and compression-seal joints rated for specific movement ranges and load classes.
How do I choose the correct bearing?
We evaluate load spectra, rotation needs, and seismic design to recommend elastomeric, pot-type, or spherical bearings.
Are these products tested for GCC climates?
Yes—every joint and bearing undergoes thermal cycling, UV exposure, and cyclic-load testing per ISO and DIN standards.
Can you retrofit existing bridges?
Absolutely. We measure on-site, produce custom parts, and supervise installation for refurbishment projects.
What is the typical service life?
With proper installation and maintenance, our systems last 30+ years under normal conditions.
Do you provide installation training?
Yes—our engineers deliver hands-on installation workshops and detailed manuals.
What maintenance is required?
Periodic inspections and lubrication (for some bearing types); we supply refurbishment kits and spare parts.
Can joint seals be customized?
We extrude bespoke profiles to match your dimensional and performance specs.
How quickly can you deliver?
Standard profiles: 1–2 weeks; custom extrusions: 4–6 weeks.
Do you offer on-call emergency repairs?
Yes—a dedicated hotline and rapid field-service teams are available 24/7 for critical infrastructure.
