| Description |
The joints and cracks in pavements are sealed to
prevent dirt, stones, and water from entering these openings. Water and
incompressible solids in the joint inhibit normal pavement movement and cause
extensive pavement damage. The demands made on the sealant material depend on
pavement behavior. The movement of the pavement is a function of joint spacing,
joint width, temperature range, moisture content, subbase type, and traffic
volume.
