Abstract:
A fire and/or water resistant expansion joint system for installation into a building joint in vertical and horizontal configurations is designed such that it can be used for either an inside or outside corner. The system comprises a core having a fire retardant therein. A layer of a water resistant material is disposed on the core to facilitate the compression of the expansion joint system when installed between substrates. The system can be delivered to a job site in a pre-compressed state ready for installation into the building joint.

Claim (Index 1):
A fire and water resistant expansion joint system, comprising:\n a core; a fire retardant in the core in an amount effective to pass movement cycling and fire endurance testing; and a water resistant layer disposed on the core; wherein the water resistant layer facilitates compression of the expansion joint system between substrates; and wherein the expansion joint system is angled around a corner, and the fire and water resistant expansion joint system and the core with fire retardant therein are configured to pass the movement cycling and fire endurance testing.
