Sealants in Construction
Autor Jerome Klosowski, Andreas T. Wolfen Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 noi 2015
The definitive guide to sealing operations in construction, this latest edition of Sealants in Construction focuses on the most current technology, methods, applications, and standards relevant to sealant performance. Providing guided direction on how to choose and apply sealants, determine the properties of those sealants, and test and establish the cause of sealant failures, it addresses the design and engineering of structurally glazed systems and the chemistry and properties of various generic types including silicones, hybrids, and urethanes.
Divided into two parts, the book first covers basic topics relevant to the practical side of construction sealants, and is geared toward those interested in choosing the proper sealant. The second half introduces advanced topics that are more technical, includes historical context along with practical examples, and is directed toward anyone requiring more depth in these areas.
An indispensable resource essential to your collection, this book:
- Explains the proper way to test sealants
- Evaluates standard test methods that are used with construction sealants
- Provides examples of emerging test methods appropriate for use with construction and highway sealants
- Outlines methods for calculating the required joint sizes in conventional sealing, glazing, and structural glazing
- Details the composition of the most popular types of sealants and hybrids
