JOINTED AND JOINTLESS SYSTEMS FOR INTERNAL CONCRETE FLOORING
When it comes to concrete slab on grade, there are two main options: jointed and jointless systems.
Jointed flooring is the traditional system and involves creating contraction joints to control cracking caused by stretching and shrinkage. While this method is effective, the presence of contraction joints can be a drawback.
On the other hand, jointless flooring is becoming increasingly popular due to its flexibility, higher load carrying capacity, and reduced maintenance. With fewer weak spots in the floor thanks to the absence of saw-cuts, jointless flooring requires less maintenance and the joint profiles only need periodic maintenance. Overall, jointless flooring is a faster and easier solution that offers greater flexibility and load carrying capacity.
