Description 1 online resource (viii, 489 pages) : illustrations Series ASTM International selected technical papers, 2154-6673 ; STP 1583 Journal of ASTM International. Selected technical papers ; STP 1583 Summary These 17 papers were presented on June 25 and 26, 2014 at the Sheraton Hotel in Toronto Canada after the regular ASTM C24 meeting. The theme of this symposium was largely inspired by a comment made by a member: "Who cares about durability?" The volume of construction sealants compared to the volume of common construction materials on a major project is extremely small, however the building does not perform properly without sealants. Thus, the short answer to aforementioned question is: everyone should care. The durability of a building is directly related to that building's sealants. This book is the 5th volume concentrating on building sealant durability on an international platform. With the collaboration and dedication of the members of C24 who write and maintain standards, the owners and architects responsible for the world's iconic structures can be confident of the liquid applied sealant materials that make their buildings safe and comfortable. -- Provided by publisher Notes Contains 17 papers presented at the Symposium on Durability of Building and Construction Sealants and Adhesives held in Toronto, Ontario, June 25-26, 2014 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and indexes Subject Building materials -- Testing -- Congresses Sealing compounds -- Testing -- Congresses Sealing compounds -- Deterioration -- Congresses Adhesives -- Testing -- Congresses Adhesives -- Deterioration -- Congresses Adhesives -- Deterioration Adhesives -- Testing Building materials -- Testing Sealing compounds -- Testing Genre/Form Conference papers and proceedings Form Electronic book Author Carbary, Lawrence D., editor of compilation Wolf, A.
