This is a polymer-based joint sealant solution used in building and construction design applications to seal and protect joints between two substrates. Fountech used it to seal joints, gaps, and openings between two or more substrates to stop environmental elements that make available conditions that may lead to corrosion. It is designed to shield joint edges from corrosion. in concrete. Expansion Joint sealant solutions for concrete structural joints.
Many types of Joint sealant solutions with good properties are available. The basic Characteristics of a good joint sealant should be as follows.
The joint is where the different building elements and materials meet. A joint is where two components meet and occur mainly within segments of construction or at a part of an interface between two variants. Joint sealing facilitates construction as many components are made of different materials that need a joint to allow for movement of the structure but must keep water, air, heat cold and vapor-tight seal. As the most vulnerable part of a structure, the joint needs the best product to protect the structure from the environmental elements and only correctly specified and professionally applied high-quality joint sealants will manage to keep the building or structure sustainably airtight during its lifespan. Sika has a wide variety of joint sealant solutions that will suit all of your construction needs, browse our product lines to find which joint sealant is the solution for your next project
In building construction, an expansion joint is a mid-structure separation designed to relieve stress on building materials caused by building movement. Building movement at expansion joints is primarily induced by: thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes. sway caused by wind.
