Brawny

By N Unison Patented

Is an innovative aluminium car park expansion joint system which offers multi-directional movement including ‘differential-vertical'.

By NF

aluminium car park expansion joint system which offers multi-directional movement including ‘differential-vertical'. Designed for flush mount installation

By NF AqP

aluminium car park expansion joint system which offers multi-directional movement including ‘differential-vertical'. Designed for flush mount installation including movement joint waterproof seal

By NS

Surface mounted aluminium cover plate is designed to be retrofitted & work as a platform over our Aquo -P expansion joint waterproof seal

By NA is a sub-category under By NS. It has the same horizontal movement range as By NS but can be used without the Aquo-P system.

By N AqP

The aluminium cover plate system is designed as a platform over the AquoP expansion joint water seal. Perfect for rooftop car park decks where waterproofing is critical.

By N Aq H

The aluminium cover plate system was installed as a platform over the AqH Hypalon water-proof barrier gland. This product is mounted to the horizontal surfaces of the car park. It is designed to negate preparation work to the inside of movement gaps in order to minimise potential disruption to the operating building space below.

By C

An Extra Heavy Duty floor cover plate system designed for use with heavy rolling traffic such as forklifts, pallet trolleys, and scissor lifts. Suitable for use in loading docks, back-of-house areas, and bulky-goods retail trading floors. Unique square-edge design minimises wheel impact, which promotes longevity. Accommodates multi-directional movement. ByC is normally supplied with high-grade mill-finish alloy cover plates. But can be supplied with stainless steel, natural and colour-anodised aluminium, or bead-blasted cover plate.

By CT

The same extra Heavy Duty systems as ByC however have “T” bracket modification, for use in exposed aggregate, terrazzo, stone or paving.

Aquo-P

Endorsed by major shopping centres globally, Aquo P expansion joint water seal performs without generating noise, keeping car parks, bridges and open-air concrete structures watertight.

Specially formulated polyethylene foam water seal expansion joint. Where traditional waterproof seals leak (at junctions and upturns), Aquo P uses simple, quality welding technology. When correctly installed the system provides a 100% waterproof expansion joint seal. It has UV inhibitors for longevity and is tested to a 3-metre head of water, making it ideal for concrete swimming pools and dams. Aquo P can be used in conjunction with the Unison cover plate and fire rating systems. It is suitable for most types of construction including internal and external expansion joint waterproofing: multi-story car parks, rooftop car parks, hospitals, retail centres, amenities, stadiums (especially seating plats), and convention centres. Unison have successfully waterproofed thousands of kilometres of movement joints using Aquo seal in the past 21 years.

Dz FTAq

A combination of Unison's high-movement Aquo P expansion joint water seal, and a pedestrian-friendly rubber tread piece. DzFT is a semi-rigid system designed by Unison's engineers, as a cost-effective topping for the highly flexible AquoP water seal. The flush-mounted system requires no wider rebate other than that of AquoP. Ideal for stadium plats. DzFT/AqP is recommended for use in expansion joints in car parks and other concrete structures where waterproofing is critical. Developed for Brisbane Airport Car Park

Aquo-C

Aquo C is an EPDM Compression Seal. It is a cost-effective solution for concrete expansion joints which do not require a watertight seal. Aquo C can be used in carparks, wharves and industrial building joints or other concrete/masonry movement joint applications.

Dz H

Revolutionary design combines slim visual width, low profile and hidden fixings. This heavy-duty floor cover plate system is designed for use in polished concrete, roll-coat epoxy, tiles, vinyl and other floor finishes. The low profile and slender width allow for minimal substrate rebating. Leaves no visual grout line when applied to polish or trowel-finished concrete. Suitable for bulky-goods retail (ie Bunnings, Ikea & All Supermarket loading dock) with rebating constraints. Stadiums, transit centres, carparks and other buildings with suspended-slab concrete.

Si By

Seismic Brawny (SiBy) is a carpark cover plate system with high movement capacity in all directions. SiBy is designed for small and large seismic movement gaps. It can house 6mm to 10mm thick cover plates, flush-mounted. SiBy is designed so that during normal seasonal-thermal movement the cover plate actuates flush with surrounding aluminium housings to ensure shopping trolleys, pedestrians and passenger vehicles have a smooth transition across movement gaps. It also has the capacity for the second phase of movement during a seismic event. The sliding plate housings are mounted with edges flush with the carpark wearing surface… retaining the wearing surface, and therefore protecting the edges. A heavy-duty system for use in carparks for shopping centres, convention centres, airports and other heavy-duty, slow-traffic, seismic applications.

Unison has supplied and installed most Westfield Centres within Australia and New Zealand.
