Building construction — Jointing products — Sealants — Determination of tensile properties at maintained extension

Specifies a method for the determination of the tensile properties at maintained extension of sealants used in joints in building construction. The sealant to be tested adheres to two parallel contact surfaces of prepared test specimens which are extended to a defined width. The extension is maintained under defined conditions. Any breaks in adhesion or cohesion are recorded.
