Silicone
Sealants for Construction |
Focuses
on the basic roles of building sealants and the most common
types of sealant applications, including weatherseal and
structural glazing |
|
002 |
Silicone
Sealants and Coatings for Building Restoration |
Promotes
a better understanding of sealant chemistry, properties
and application techniques, including good joing design |
|
003 |
Silicone
Sealants for Structural and Protective Glazing |
Covers
glazing for new construction and retrofitting, promotes
a better understanding of glazing designs and techniques,
and provides timely information on the recent advances
in protective glazing to negate severe weather, criminal
activity or bomb blasts |

004 |
Determining
the Cause of Joint Failure |
Discusses
the most prevalent causes of sealant failure in today's
construction applications, identifies symptoms typically
associated with one type of failure versus another and
provides procedures for identifying the root cause (or
causes) of that failure as a prerequisite for successful
remediation. |

Construction
Aesthetics |
Reviews
industry research regarding the aesthetic attributes of
various sealant types on both a product-specific and generic
type basis. The presentation reveals that there is variation
in sealant aesthetics within a generic sealant type and
concludes that sealant aesthetics instead depend on the
specific product formulation and how it performs in a
given environment |
