ASTM C1193-00 - 10.6.2000
 
1. Scope

1.1 This guide describes the use of single and multicomponent, cold-applied joint sealants for parallel joint sealing applications in buildings and related adjacent areas, such as plazas, decks, and pavements for vehicular or pedestrian use, and types of construction other than highways and airfield pavements and bridges.

1.2 The elastomeric or non-elastomeric sealants described by this guide meet the requirements of Specifications C834, C920, and C1085.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are provided for information only.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, 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. For specific hazard statements, see Notes 1 and 2.
