Joints are the place where two bones meet. All of your bones, except for one (the hyoid bone in your neck), form a joint with another bone. Joints hold your bones together and allow your rigid skeleton to move.
Hope this helps?! :)
Expansion joints are typically categorized into several types, including compression joints, which accommodate horizontal movements; tension joints, designed for vertical movements; and hinge joints, which allow angular movement. Other types include sliding joints, which permit lateral movement, and bellows joints, made of flexible materials to absorb thermal expansion and vibrations. Each type is designed to handle specific movement and stress conditions in structures, pipelines, and machinery.
Shear connection joints are used to transfer forces between different structural elements, such as beams and columns. These joints are designed to resist shear forces that may occur due to loads applied to the structure. The connection can involve bolts, welds, or other fastening methods to ensure a strong and stable connection.
Immovable joints, also known as synarthroses, are designed to provide stability and support to the skeleton. They allow for very little movement or none at all, which is important for protecting vital organs and providing structural integrity to the body. Examples of immovable joints include sutures in the skull and the tooth sockets in the jaw.
There are two general types of joints, movable and immovable. Under the movable category there are four types of joints: Hinge joints: in knees and elbows Pivot joints: in neck Gliding joints: in wrists and ankles Ball-and-socket joints: in shoulders and hips
In our joints our hinge joints are located between two bone our hinge joint is our elbow.
The anatomical structures designed to cushion joints is the cartialge. The combining form is chrondr/o

No, not all joints can bend. Joints such as the fixed joints in the skull, called sutures, do not allow for movement. They are specifically designed to provide stability and protect the brain.

Sealed ball joints are not designed to have grease added. They have been permanently sealed, and can only be replaced when there is a problem.
Ligaments are collagen structures, and the are not designed to stretch. Ever. If they do, your joints become unstable.
No, synovial joints joints are freely movable joints. There are six types of synovial joints: gliding (arthrodial), hinge (ginglymus), pivot (trochoid), ellipsoid, saddle, and ball and socket.
Yes, some joints in the body, such as the elbow and knee joints, can accommodate multiple bones coming together at a single point. These joints are designed to provide stability and allow for movement between the connected bones.
If you have a factory steering knuckle, ford designed them for the ball joints to not be removable. If you are thinking that your ball joints are bad for some reason, you will need to get after market steering knuckles, and ball joints for replacement. Costly, I know but worth it. I suggest MOOG, I've always have had good experience with them.
Using tar in concrete expansion joints is generally not recommended. Tar can become brittle over time and may not provide the necessary flexibility required for the joints to accommodate movement. Instead, materials specifically designed for expansion joints, such as elastomeric sealants or flexible fillers, are preferred as they can better handle the thermal expansion and contraction of concrete.
