Expansion Joints: How thermal expansion solutions can become big pressure problems

Almost all industrial facilities—whether process, power, manufacturing or research— have at least one and often many expansion joints to provide engineered solutions for issues such as thermal expansion, piping fit-up, equipment nozzle loads and vibration isolation. Sometimes they are a last resort. Other times, they are widely accepted as an extra means of safety. Grow your understanding of expansion joints with three key takeaways from this free whitepaper from ASME’s expert instructor, Jim Meyer.
