Abstract:
Tiles  21  and  22  are laid up with other tiles in the usual way at and along the joint  18,  the joint  18  comprises a female strip  23  and a male strip  24  each of which have fastening flanges  25  and  26  and respective 90° walls  27  and  28.  A slot or rebate in the female section  29  holds an expandable seal, typically in this case a hydrophilic seal. The female part and the male parts are assembled for relative movement so that a small gap perhaps 2 mm at  31  may be accommodated while the the upper plate section  23  still provides a contiguous coplanar link between the parts.
