A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Sealants for concrete curtain wall panels are classified as cement mortars, oil-base calking compounds, and polysulfide sealants; several case studies of success and failure of joints sealants are presented, showing that cement mortar is satisfactory for small concrete units, bricks, and stone masonry, that oil-base calking compounds are adequate for precast panels in smaller units but need maintenance, and that polysulfide sealants are superior for sealing joints and between large concrete panels, with low maintenance.
