Caution

1. This method is not suitable for use over any existing joint in the subfloor. In such cases vertical movement is likely to occur. A Micro Joint is only effective against horizontal stress.
2. All other consideration and requirements for movement accommodation must be observed. Perimeter and doorway joints must be installed.
3. This method does not meet the requirements of BS 5385. It is simply a way of providing protection when standard products are unacceptable. We would suggest that this concept is put forward to clients as risk reduction and an indemnity is requested.
