Is it necessary to leave expansion joints in the door pasages?
Expansion joints must be obligatory used to separate the different rooms and also the joints with other kind of coverings. These expansion joints to leave in the door passages between the different rooms carry out an important double function: – To assure an optical flow more natural than design. – Laminate flooring is made of wood fibers. These are an “alive” element so they cause dimensional variations in the product, depending on the environmental conditions of the different rooms. Each room has a different temperature and humidity level. By means of the expansion joints in the door passages, we assure the creation of “hermetic” compartments, avoiding that contractions and expansions in adjoining rooms affect.
