FAQ
Questions Expansion Joint Design owners ask.
- 01
How does the capability handle seismic requirements?
The calculate_seismic_displacement capability calculates additional movement based on the designated seismic zone classification and the building length.
- 02
Can I get specific sealant recommendations?
Yes, by using get_sealant_recommendation, you can receive specific material types and application notes based on the total movement capacity.
- 03
What happens if the building has an irregular shape?
When using design_joint_specification, setting hasIrregularities to true will trigger a safety factor increase in the required gap width to prevent structural collision.
