Expansion Joint Systems in the Middle East
All building structures are prone to movement caused by unequal concrete settling, concrete creep, shrinkage, seismic activity, wind velocity, and thermal changes. Given the hot, arid climate, Middle Eastern infrastructure calls for builders to pay greater attention to thermal changes in developing their building designs.
Summers in the Middle East often rise above the scorching 45°C mark. Such extreme temperatures can lead to substantial movement, compromising the safety of building structures and their occupants. Hence, Unison Joints has been enlisted to supply their trusted line of expansion joint systems in the Middle East. Unison has supplied some significant gulf projects such as:
- Ministry Of Education building in Riyadh
- Al Habtoor Island resort and Spa, a 7 star resort on the Palm Jumeriah
- Al Wahda Mall in Abu Dhabi
- Sahara Centre in Sharjah
- Burjuman Centre in Downtown Bur Dubai

Also known as movement joints, expansion joints are designed to transition architectural gaps that absorb movement. The systems fill or hide unsightly gaps finishing off with a safely trafficable surface for pedestrians, vehicles, equipment and other traffic loads.
