Joint design
All structures move. Correct design of joints allows controlled movement to occur while retaining the weather and watertight
functionality of the structure. Movement occurs as a result of long term shrinkage of concrete, settlement, loading, vibration, and
impact, but, the most important source of movement, results from temperature change. Even the best quality joint sealants, applied
by trained installers will fail if joints are not correctly designed.
L = x L0 x T
L = Resulting change in length
= Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of the material (Typically concrete = 12.5 x 10-6 m/m)
L0 = Original length of the building element
T = Net change of temperature in the element
Example: Consider 2 concrete elements each 10 m long (see diagram below). Extreme temperatures: -5C winter, +45C in
summer. Therefore, the movement is calculated using the equation above, as:
10 meters 10 meters
Fixed ends
Potential movement at butt joint = 2 x 6.25 mm = 12.5 mm (for a temperature change of 50C)
Note: BASF take no responsibility for design of joints. This information is provided as a guide only.

The minimum theoretical joint width is calculated based on the calculated movement and the movement capability of the joint sealant:
Therefore, in the above example, and using MasterSeal NP 472 with a movement capability of 25% = 50% total movement
capability
But, beware, this theoretical minimum calculation can cause significant problems if we do not consider the temperature at the
time of the installation of the joint sealant, and the ACTUAL size of the joint at this time!
Consider, as an example, if the structure is built in spring at a temperature of 10C, with the 25 mm joint width as calculated.
But the sealant is not installed until late summer when the ambient temperature is then 40C. Both the concrete elements will
have expanded by 3.25 mm and the joint will have closed by 7.5 mm to an actual width of 17.5 mm. Most of the potential
movement of the joint will be as the concrete shrinks over winter time to -5C. This 45C temperature change will cause the
joint gap to widen by 11.25 mm.
11.25 mm as a percentage of 17.5 mm = 64.3% movement far greater than the 25% movement capability in expansion of the
sealant which could, over time lead to cohesive or adhesive failure either in the sealant or substrate.
For these reasons, use of a Safety factor of 2 is recommended when designing joint widths (or use twice as many joints, if
aesthetics allow).
However,
for joints > 12 mm wide the joint depth should equal 0.5 x
width.

Silicones
Versatile material used in a wide range of applications
characterized by excellent UV resistance and bond to most
substrates without primers. Widely used in structural glazing
applications but these specialist materials are not included in
the MasterSeal range.
Polyurethanes
For many years the workhorse sealant and adhesive material
for construction and industrial applications. With good
performance characteristics in all fields, they are used in a
very wide range of situations.
Hybrid materials
The latest technology, combining the best features of silicone
and polyurethane polymers in one polymer. They exhibit
excellent adhesion characteristics and UV resistance, and
high tolerance to dampness, without formation of bubbles,
which is a known limitation of polyurethanes. Two terms are
widely used in the industry:
MS polymer (Modified silicone)
SPUR or StPUR (silane or silicone terminated polyurethane).
These are essentially the same technology.
Polysulfides
Long established with a proven track record in the sealant
market with excellent resistance to fuel and chemicals.
