When it came time to build a new parking structure at the Louisville International Airport to keep up with the busy airport's booming growth, Mark Postma, a project engineer with Carl Walker, Inc., Kalamazoo, Michigan, specified Dow Corning ® NS Parking Structure Sealant to seal expansion joints on the new 4,304 space parking structure.

"Some sealants won't extend much," says Postma. "This material has high elongation properties that minimize stress on the concrete and sealant at the joint interface."

Dow Corning ® brand Parking Structure Sealants are an investment in lower life-cycle costs, less downtime, maintenance savings and longer lasting parking structures. They last longer than urethane sealants because they withstand movement, UV and weather exposure, and substrate expansion and contraction without becoming brittle or losing adhesion. They are available in fast-cure, self-leveling and non-slump formulations.
