The Armour Joint Lesa Type G provides a sliding cover plate joint system designed for floors that experience high joint movement due to wide joint spacing. This system is specifically used in stressed slabs, jointless (high dosage) steel fibre slabs, and shrinkage-compensating concrete slabs. It has been in use since 2003 and is known for its reliability in managing floor shrinkage and joint movement.
The Type G system consists of a robust cover plate that slides over the joint as the floor shrinks, maintaining the integrity of the joint while allowing for necessary movement. The system is available in three versions (Types G45, G65, and G85), with joint widths designed to handle up to 85mm of expected opening.
The sliding cover plate provides a reliable method for joint protection, ensuring that the concrete structure remains intact despite temperature fluctuations, shrinkage, and other stresses. The system also includes Lesa 10mm Hi-Move plate dowel sleeves for accurate joint alignment, and the design allows for easy installation, even in complex construction environments.

The Armour Joint Lesa Type G system offers a robust solution for managing joint movement in concrete slabs, providing reliable performance in areas subject to high joint spacing and shrinkage.
