PVC CRACK INDUCERS SYSTEM
Description
CORKJOINT® Eze-Crack® PVC Crack Inducer System is a two-part rigid PVC Crack Inducer System used in concrete ground slabs and concrete pavements to induce controlled cracks at pre-determined locations while allowing for continuous concrete pouring. Eze-Crack® PVC is made from high quality rigid PVC and is installed into position during pouring of the concrete but after the levelling/screeding of the concrete has been placed and while the concrete is still wet, finished flush with the top of the surface.
As the concrete cures and shrinkage takes place, Eze-Crack® PVC will induce a crack downwards in a controlled fashion, helping to eliminate uncontrollable surface cracking of the concrete ground slab or concrete pavement. Position placement of Eze-Crack® PVC must be determined/advised by the Project’sDesign Engineer, so to achieve the best desired joint location for the concrete ground slab or concrete pavement.
