ASTM E 1783 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Preformed Architectural Strip Seals for Buildings and Parking Structures
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Feb 10, 1996
Scope:
This specification covers the physical requirements for the fully
cured elastomeric alloy and the
movement capabilities of preformed architectural compression seals
used for sealing expansion
joints in buildings and parking structures. The preformed
architectural strip seal is an
elastomeric extrusion. This extrusion is either a membrane or tubular
having an internal baffle
system produced continuously and longitudinally throughout the
material. These extrusions are
secured in or over a joint by locking rails or an end dam nosing
material. The architectural strip
seal is compressed and expanded by this mechanical or chemical
attachment.
NOTE 1 - Movement capability is defined in Test Method E 1399.
This specification covers all colors of architectural strip seals.
NOTE 2 - The products described in this specification are manufactured
from thermoplastic
elastomers defined as "fully cured elastomeric alloys" in Test Method
D 5048.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values given in parentheses
are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
