Structural movement joints refer to the spaces or gaps intentionally designed and installed in a building's structural elements, such as walls, floors or roofs, to accommodate for the natural expansion and contraction of the materials caused by various factors like temperature, wind, and seismic activities. A construction joint, on the other hand, is a joint left deliberately or unintentionally during construction to separate different building elements or to separate different phases of construction. Repair systems, on their part, refer to the various materials and techniques used to repair damaged or deteriorated concrete structures, including repair mortars, bonding agents, and coatings.
