3 Reasons Why Metal Expansion Joints Fail

Expansion joints are widely used tools with many uses in construction and structural reinforcement. Most commonly seen in piping systems, metal joints work to add flexibility and reduce stress during thermal expansion and contraction.

Despite their versatility and dependability, metal expansions are like most equipment in that they have a service life and can fail when not used adequately.

Continue reading to learn three reasons why metal expansion joints fail.

Incorrect Installation

While shipping and storage play a significant role in the extent of their service life and efficiency in performance, ensuring that you properly install an expansion joint is equally essential.

Incorrectly installed expansion joints have an increased risk of failure as they won’t be able to protect pipe systems during expansion and contraction. Proper alignment also matters in expansion joint installation since it can help prevent leakages.

No Pipe Support

While expansion joints are crucial, it helps to have anchors and guides as support to reinforce pressure management. Without the help of pipe supports to hold bellows in place during movement, expansion joints can displace, causing failure.

It would be best if you also avoided stretching or compressing metal joints to fit positions or gaps since warping devices will also compromise their performance.

Corrosion and Deterioration

You can also attribute expansion joint failure to corrosion and deterioration. Metal surfaces should never come in contact with chlorides, but if they do, remember to flush piping systems with clean water. Chlorides can settle in convolutions of metal joints and cause corrosion, cracking, and rust.

Given their critical role in protecting equipment from friction and excessive pressure, expansion joints need just as much attention as the system they support. Metal expansion joints fail for many reasons, so ensuring proper installation, maintenance, and support implementation is crucial.

Otherwise, failure could damage the infrastructure, and in some extreme cases, it can lead to a complete system breakdown.

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: Outer Space Former Yugoslavia Sudan Ukraine Cambodia Myanmar Central African Republic Cameroon DPRK Uganda World No Tobacco Day Noon Guest/Briefing Tomorrow OUTER SPACE Today, the Secretary-General published a policy brief on outer space governance, the seventh in the Our Common Agenda series that is aimed at informing Member States ahead of the Summit of the Future next year. The brief was released to coincide with today’s start of the session of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space. In the policy brief the Secretary-General says we must ensure that effective governance is in place to propel innovation to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. The brief also outlines a number of recommendations for Member States and the UN system relating to the sustainability, security, and governance of outer space. FORMER YUGOSLAVIA You may have seen that in a press release earlier today, the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals concerning the delivery of the appeal judgement in the case against Jovica Stanišić and Franko Simatović. The Secretary-General takes note of this appeal and extends his thoughts to the victims, and survivors and their families who have suffered from the crimes for which both defendants have been found guilty.  The judgement marks the conclusion of the last case relating to core crimes that the Mechanism inherited from the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, which as you will recall was established in 1993 to prosecute persons responsible for serious violations of international humanitarian law committed in the territory of the former Yugoslavia since 1991. The Secretary-General commends the judges and staff involved in this case for their unfaltering dedication and hard work since 2003, when the first indictment was filed. SUDAN A number of you have been asking me this morning about Sudan and the closed consultation this afternoon, I can confirm that the Secretary-General did, indeed, ask to brief Security Council members on the dramatic situation in Sudan, that will be done in closed consultations this afternoon. And moving on to situation on the ground, the International Organization for Migration says more than 1.2 million people have been displaced inside Sudan as a result of the conflict. IOM’s estimates are based on preliminary reports from field teams, while additional reports are likely to emerge as humanitarian access improves. To help those in need, we and our partners continue to deliver aid wherever and whenever we can. The World Food Programme continued its distributions in Khartoum State, reaching 15,000 people trapped in the Omdurman area with emergency food. Across the country, WFP has now reached more than 782,000 men, women and children with food and nutrition support over the past four weeks. The agency is also providing emergency telecommunications services to all of the UN system and the wider humanitarian community in Sudan, where - as you can imagine - basic connectivity remains very much a challenge. As the UN Population Fund has started to provide life-saving medicines and reproductive health supplies to maternity hospitals in Wad Medani in Al-Jazirah state. Medical teams at this hospital are also providing reproductive health services to women and girls who have fled from the capital, Khartoum.

The coronation of King Charles III will be the first time a King of England has his coronation televised and only the second-ever British monarch to do so after Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. It’s a ceremony full of pomp and circumstance, cloaked in mystery and steeped in centuries-old traditions…that comes from a healthy dose of historical pettiness and happenstance. During the ceremony, the monarch will be presented with the crown jewels, almost all of which were destroyed, altered, or lost to time over the often-tumultuous centuries of British history. While the crown is the centrepiece of the regalia – what do sceptres, swords and a Scottish stone have to do with being anointed to the British throne? Global News explains.

When Russia invaded Ukraine just over a year ago, the question was raised if China could be watching what happened to determine if it could launch its own invasion of the independent island nation of Taiwan. For years, Chinese President Xi Jinping has said Taiwan would some day reunify with China but outside of military exercises near the island, there has yet to be actual movement that has signified if Beijing would take the next step and try to invade. Sean Previl takes a look at the history of the country, the political conditions it currently faces and what could happen if China did take that step.

This past weekend in St. John’s Newfoundland, hundreds of people hit the streets for the Atlantic province’s annual Mummers Parade. As part of this festive tradition, people gather up old clothes that have been lying around the house –tablecloths and oversized shirts are a favourite – and assemble a “mummer’s rig” or costume. Originally, mummering was a house-visiting tradition. It first appeared in Newfoundland and Labrador in the 1800’s, though the practice dates back much further than that. Mummers would visit their neighbours in disguise, looking for beer and a bite to eat. Alyssa Julie has more on the history of mummering - and the dark parts of its past.

Play Video: Breast cancer survivors say issues like early menopause, loss of identity often overlooked


Just days ahead of her 40th birthday, Hilary Boswell received a terrifying diagnosis – She had breast cancer. She received a unilateral mastectomy, a surgery she didn’t necessarily want but felt pressured into by her surgeon. It left her with one breast and, she says, it changed the way she saw herself. “I remember struggling so much with the idea of walking around with one boob,” she said. “I just really felt like I knew what I wanted… and yeah, I wish I had done it, “ she added, referring to a double mastectomy. Like Boswell, other cancer survivors sometimes struggle to accept the changes brought on by surgery or chemotherapy – such as early menopause, or loss of libido.
