For more than 50 years Watson Bowman Acme has developed and manufactured expansion joints for some of the worlds most unique and complex projects. BAS Expansion Joints Ltd has partnered with WBA to provide specifiers with the definitive range of expansion joints for the New Zealand market. A key feature of the range offered is that all the expansion joints on this website are 'seismic joints'. WABO have non-seismic joints available but we think that in New Zealand buildings should be built for New Zealand conditions.

Let's talk about expansion joint (EJ) headers (or nosing as they are also known as). | BAS Expansion Joints (NZ) Let's talk about expansion joint (EJ) headers (or nosing as they are also known as). A bridge expansion joint is a critical part of any bridge construction, it allows for thermal expansion/ contraction between the superstructure of the bridge and the abutment as seasons change (hot to cold etc)....
We are extremely excited to finally see a EJ system we have been developing with our manufacturing partner hit the NZ Market. The first installation in NZ of our extremely unique BAS®ERJ is being installed on the Reeves Road Overpass this week. This is a 3-axis movement capable finger joint system that has been a 7+ year project for us.

Another bridge sporting BAS®NZ Elastomeric Bearings and Expansion Joints. William Stewart Bridge, built by Concrete Structures Ltd was almost complete and was waiting on the Joints to arrive.
