2 C/S EXPANSION JOINT COVERS No matter how much movement de Young Museum A major consideration of the de Young project was that the expansion joint covers must be virtually invisible within the museum s weathered copper skin. Architects Herzog & de Meuron specified CS XLS cover system knowing it could be seamlessly incorporated into the facades copper panel frame. The 24" XLS covers are designed to release from the wall to provide full seismic movement. 2

Orange County Performing Arts Center In the interior of the magnificent Segerstrom Concert Hall, Architects: Pelli Clark Pelli specified C/S 12" LAF Seismic Wall Covers. Virtually imperceptible the LAF wall covers are lightweight, match the concert hall s wall finish without visual interruption and provide full movement of the joint without damage to surrounding wall surfaces. 3

4 San Francisco International Airport Architect: Skidmore, Owings & Merrill Throughout San Francisco International Airport s base isolated main terminal, massive C/S wall floor and ceiling covers provide four way movement up to 60" while being virtually invisible. The SSR Stone Paver floor joints are 200' long and provide 36" of movement. C/S EXPANSION JOINT COVERS Solving complex building Utah State Capitol Building Project Manager: Parsons Corporation A seismic upgrade was required for this landmark building. Parsons specified C/S Gyrometric cabs (Model MACC) and SSRW Seismic moat covers to provide egress from the building during seismic activity.

5 Newseum Architect: Polshek Partnership To provide movement and security between the Newseum and the adjacent Canadian Embassy, Polshek Partnership specified SC-1200 Exterior Covers and SRJ-1200 Roof Covers that tie both buildings together. The covers with factory mitered transitions are attached to the building s delicate marble surface. movement problems for 40 years. Center for the Intrepid, Armed Forces Physical Rehabilitation Center Architect: The Smith Group C/S supplied unobtrusive SM-2 Wall Covers to match blend surrounding wall surfaces and to provide multi-directional thermal movement in order to keep the facility walls from cracking.

6 Selection Chart Floor Covers The size of joint and movement dynamics dictate whether you require a standard or seismic expansion joint cover system. Before making a selection, there are other decisions you must make. The selection of the floor cover is often the most critical step in the specification process since the performance of the floor cover has the greatest impact on the occupants of the building. The presence of rolling loads and the need for hygiene are major considerations in cover selection, while aesthetics in seismic covers is also a significant issue.

7 For a complete catalog, including details and specifications, call or visit Wall & Ceiling Covers Having selected the floor cover, identifying a matching wall cover is a relatively simple task. When it comes to seismic covers, however, there are options driven by both functionality and aesthetics. Choose from covers that become detached from the wall to minimize damage or ones that are self-closing to minimize post-event maintenance. Many of our wall covers are designed to accept a range of surface materials to maximize concealment of the cover. Specialty Covers Specialty covers, such as roof covers and vehicular joint systems, are available for most joint sizes and movement dynamics.
