Standard 1/ Span Typical Installation Supports are placed at 1/ span (2%). Expansion joints need extra support at 1/2 span to prevent excessive deformation of the tray under heavy loads. New Over Support Typical Installation Supports are placed right under the joints of the installation. The splice adaptor allows a wider distribution of the support, therefore minimizing the stress and deflection of the assembly.
