Armour Joint Lesa Type G-C is a sliding cover plate joint system designed for use when a new slab is poured against an existing slab. This system provides a reliable cover joint solution for ensuring the integrity of joints between the new and existing concrete slabs. The first side of the system is fabricated to enable it to be securely mounted into the edge of the existing slab, offering a seamless transition between the two concrete sections.
Type G-C incorporates all the benefits of the Armour Joint Lesa Type G system, including a sliding cover plate that accommodates movement as floor shrinkage occurs. The system also includes Lesa Hi-Move plate dowel sleeves, which are designed to ensure proper alignment and structural integrity of the joint. The dowels are epoxied into the existing slab, and a lateral movement sleeve allows for expansion and contraction, making this an ideal solution for high-movement areas.
This system ensures that joint opening and closure are carefully managed, preventing cracking and ensuring that the new slab integrates effectively with the existing slab. It’s particularly suitable for projects where joint performance is critical, ensuring long-term durability and effective load transfer across the joint.
