Movement Joints in Buildings

416
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.
The simplest type of movement joints, working joints, are...

    Area of Science:

    • Dance science
    • Sports medicine
    • Kinesiology

    Background:

    • Modern dance involves diverse techniques with distinct physical demands.
    • Repetitive execution of these techniques can lead to overuse injuries in dancers.
    • Understanding injury patterns is crucial for dancer health and performance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a foundational database for modern dance injury research.
    • To investigate the relationship between specific modern dance techniques and injury occurrence.
    • To identify variations in injury sites and frequencies across different techniques.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was administered to 164 professional modern dancers.
    • Dancers reported all injuries sustained over the preceding five-year period.
    • Data collected included injury site and the dance technique being practiced at the time of injury.

    Main Results:

    • A total of 229 injuries were reported by the surveyed dancers.
    • Injury patterns differed significantly based on the dance technique.
    • Knee injuries were more prevalent in Graham technique dancers (25%) compared to Horton (10.8%).
    • Lower back injuries were more common in Horton technique dancers (21.6%) than Graham (16.7%).

    Conclusions:

    • Dance technique is a significant factor influencing the type and location of modern dance injuries.
    • Specific techniques, like Graham and Horton, are associated with distinct injury profiles.
    • This data provides a basis for technique-specific injury prevention strategies in modern dance.
