Armoured
Systems

The Definition

System Mechanics

Armoured joints work in synergy to provide active anti-shear, positioning, and anchoring. By creating a high-straightness metal shield at the joint edge, we ensure the concrete remains perfectly linear through its lifecycle.

These systems utilize sleeved dowel plates that allow free longitudinal (20mm) and transverse (10mm) movement, fully complying with UK TR34.4 global standards.

Load Transfer: High-strength plates bridge the joint, ensuring vertical load continuity even when slabs expand.

Edge Reinforcement: Galvanized steel profiles provide a permanent shield against mechanical impact from heavy logistics equipment.

Active Alignment: Standardizes joint opening during concrete shrinkage while maintaining a perfectly level floor surface.

The Necessity

92% Failure Origin

Industrial flooring statistics reveal that 92% of problems are joint-related. Proper isolation and modular construction are essential for high-performance slabs.

EXPANSION JOINT Prevents slab deformation.
CONSTRUCTION JOINT Modular pour isolation.
STRUCTURAL JOINT Connection to walls/columns.
Armoured Joint Mechanical Load Transfer Diagram 1
Standard Saw-Cut Joint

Common expansion solution but lacks edge reinforcement. Unprotected edges are high-risk zones under heavy traffic.

Edge Spalling Failure

Caused by aggregate sinking, joint vibration, and insufficient edge strength. Leads to severe concrete crumbling.

Differential Settlement

Lack of load transfer plates leads to "stepping" between slabs. Severely impacts AGV robot tires and precision ops.

PRO SOLUTION
Armoured Joint Mechanical Load Transfer Diagram 4
TTPRO Armoured System

Prevents vehicle wheels from direct crushing. Effective elimination of edge spalling and long-term joint opening issues.

Anti-Shrinkage

Effectively absorbs thermal and drying shrinkage stresses, preventing large-scale slab cracks.

Settlement Stability

Load transfer plates buffer external settlement and uneven loads, maintaining surface levelness.

Lifetime Durability

Disperses external impact forces, protecting the concrete matrix and extending total service life.

Armoured Shielding

Permanent galvanized steel shielding prevents heavy logistics equipment from damaging joint edges.

Project Execution

Layout Principles

Set armoured joints approx. 20mm below design floor elevation.
Layout horizontally along columns; max bay size 30m × 30m.
Install joints horizontally across high-traffic passages/aisles.
Maintain slab bay aspect ratio below 1:1.5.
Isolate loading docks (platforms) using armoured joints.
Isolate from building structures (walls/columns).
Remove all support rebars (underground & reinforcement) before adjacent pour.
Isolate floor from foundation/column caps using PE slip membranes.
Protocol

Installation Sequence

01Positioning

Use laser levels to calibrate elevation.

02Anchoring

Fix to subgrade via rebar supports.

03Second Pour

Remove temporary fixing rebars before adjacent pour.

04Sealing

Clean and apply joint filler after curing.
