Armor-Edge® All Steel Joint Assembly -- For Spall-Free Construction Joints When Consecutive Placements Are Required (New Construction)
Spall-Free Construction Joints
Reduce floor and truck maintenance costs by eliminating joint spalling using Armor-Edge® joint assemblies. This is the ideal edge protection solution for high-traffic areas, freezer buildings and floor designs where the construction joints are expected to open up more than 1/8 inch (3 mm), including:
Armor-Edge® joint assembly is an engineered system that ensures smooth surface transitions with the square and true profile of cold-finished steel bars. And, you avoid out of joint cracking from restraint with an alignment assembly that yields as the construction joint activates.
Accelerate construction schedules and eliminate the need for highly-skilled on-site labor by eliminating on-site custom fabrication, welding and grinding.
Performance-Based Engineering
Armor-Edge® All Steel Joint Assembly for New Construction When Consecutive Placements Are Required
Reduce floor and truck maintenance costs by eliminating joint spalling using Armor-Edge® joint assemblies. This is the ideal edge protection solution for high-traffic areas, freezer buildings and floor designs where the construction joints are expected to open up more than 1/8 inch (3 mm), including:
- Shrinkage-compensating concrete
- Post-tensioned concrete
- Steel reinforcement in dosages >0.5 percent by cross-sectional area
- High Volume Synthetic Fibers (HVSF), >7.5 lb./yd.³

- The fully aligned assembly reliably arrives on-site ready for immediate installation
- Prefabricated crosses and T’s tie directly into the joint assembly lengths
- A flat surface to finish against delivered by the cold-finished steel of the joint assembly bars
- An in-built ledge to support joint filler is an option
- Easy adjustment to the correct elevation using mounting brackets, stakes and bolts
Performance-Based Engineering
- To minimize cracking, the alignment assembly bolt is designed to strip as the concrete shrinks and the joint activates freely and without restraint
- The edge of the concrete at the joint adjacent to the Armor-Edge® joint assembly is completely protected by the straight and true edges of the Grade 1018 cold-finished steel certified to meet ASTM A108
Armor-Edge® All Steel Joint Assembly for New Construction When Consecutive Placements Are Required
- Eliminates stripping with leave-in-place form
- Includes a leave-in-place form embedded with the Diamond Dowel® System to deliver consistent load transfer
