Expansion Joint Manufacturers Association

The Expansion Joint Manufacturers Association is an organization of a metal bellows expansion joint manufacturers. It was founded in 1955 to create and maintain a set of standards for quality expansion joint design and manufacturing.[1] The EJMA standards are used worldwide as a reference for the proper selection and application of metallic bellows expansion joints. The standards are a combination of a variety of expansion joint manufacturers' knowledge and experience.

The EJMA organization performs extensive technical research on a variety of topics concerning the design and manufacturing of expansion joints.[2] This knowledge contributes to providing new versions of the EJMA book of standards.

gollark: Partly because I'm used to editors autocompleting very slowly or badly.
gollark: I'm mostly happy to use anything which does syntax highlighting, good ctrl+F and autoindent.
gollark: And it is bad and uncool because it is very verbose to do some things in.
gollark: Extra friction with creating types discourages good practice in the form of creating dedicated sensible types where necessary.
gollark: In Java if you want to declare a new type to store some data and have equality and hashing and whatnot, it's horrible and complex and you can't even do operator overloading.
