Compliance Statement
Scope of Use
The 615 system must be used within the limitations specified by Inpro for the particular product configuration.
- The nominal structural joint width must be confirmed against the approved construction documentation and Inpro product data before manufacture or installation.
- The surrounding substrate must be structurally adequate to support the expansion joint system and its fixings.
- The system must be installed onto a level and suitable substrate in accordance with Inpro's installation requirements.
- The 615 architectural joint cover does not determine the required structural seismic gap. Structural joint width and movement requirements remain the responsibility of the project structural designer.
- The required movement range must be established by the project structural engineer or other suitably qualified project designer.
