The resulting document, EJMA Standard , is not merely a catalog; it is a comprehensive engineering treatise. It provides the equations, methods, and criteria necessary to design bellows type expansion joints that can withstand the rigors of high pressure, high temperature, and cyclic loading.
The standard provides methodologies for calculating the thermal expansion that a piping system will experience and how much movement an expansion joint must accommodate. It includes formulas for determining the stress and reaction forces on the expansion joint. Ejma Standard.pdf

The EJMA Standard is a widely used guideline for the design, fabrication, and installation of expansion joints in piping systems. The standard provides detailed recommendations for the selection, design, and application of expansion joints to accommodate thermal expansion, contraction, and other movements in piping systems.
Besides standard research articles, EJM publishes several other types of contributions, each with its own guidelines:
The Standards of the Expansion Joint Manufacturers Association (commonly referred to simply as EJMA) is the globally recognized technical handbook for the design of metallic bellows expansion joints.
