AGOM elastomeric reinforced joints for roads, called AGFLEXBJ, are designed to enable service displacements up to 500 mm (±250 mm) with respect to the bridge decks they are fastened to. Entirely waterproof, they are secured to the structure with suitable anchor bolts. The joint movement can be obtained or by deformation of rubber elements vulcanised with rolled steel reinforcements or by compression and extension of rubber bellows. The gap between structures is overcome by a bridge steel zinc coated plate. AGFLEXBJ joints also allow displacement of the structure’s parts relative to each other in any direction.
Expansion joint type AGFLEX BJ500 is designed to enable service displacements up to 500 mm (±250 mm).
It can support also transversal movements up to ±176 mm.
