Standard EN SampleCold Applied Joint Sealant Systems for Concrete Pavements: Methods of Test
Also Known As:
BS 5212-3:1990 is a standard that provides methods of testing for cold applied joint sealant systems used in concrete pavements. The sealants are specifically designed for application in outdoor environments such as roads and airfields, where they are exposed to various weather conditions and potential traffic stresses. The purpose of this standard is to ensure the performance and durability of these sealant systems.
The standard outlines the testing procedures that need to be followed to evaluate the effectiveness of the sealant systems. These tests include evaluating the sealants' adhesion, elongation, hardness, and resistance to various environmental factors such as water, aging, and temperature fluctuations. These tests help to determine the ability of the sealants to effectively seal joints and prevent the ingress of water, dirt, and other contaminants.
