Sealing and resealing of joints in buildings
Construction and Building Materials, 1995Abstract Sealants play a vital role in joints in maintaining the weather-tightness of buildings and engineering structures. This paper outlines the nature of joint movements and the requirements of sealants to fulfil this role. Aspects of economics, joint design, sealant system selection and joint preparation are then discussed, both in the context ...

Treatment of joints in building structures
Structural Survey, 1992Claims that joints in buildings have been well‐discussed in the literature, rightly, as they fail frequently. Reviews the principles of joint design and joint sealing, including the selection of sealants. Points out six key principles of sealant application techniques.

The influence of moisture on building joint sealants
Building and Environment, 1989Abstract In this study, the first phase of an investigation of the performance of sealants with porous substrates, the effect of wet and dry conditions on the properties of sealants mounted in test blocks of cement mortar and glass-reinforced cement (GRC) are evaluated.

Durability of Building Joint Sealants
2008Predicting the service life of building joint sealants exposed to service environments in less than real time has been a need of the sealant community for many decades. Despite extensive research efforts to design laboratory accelerated tests to duplicate the failure modes occurring in field exposures, little success has been achieved using ...

Sealants for joints in buildings
Structural Survey, 1992Discusses the history, development, and current state of the building sealant industry. Considers various joint designs as well as sealant application and oil‐based and butyl mastics, acrylic, polysulphide, polyurethane and silicone sealants. Surmises that the proper selection and application of sealant give the designer considerable freedom of choice ...

History of Building Joint Sealants
1996The use of sealants in facades became more widespread in the 1950s and 1960s with the increasing use of curtain wall construction. While most sealants specified for new construction today are silicone or urethane-based, older buildings may contain polysulfide and acrylic-based sealants.
