Project Background

A £7 million investment in the Priory Shopping Centre to update and expand the complex to 30,000 sq ft of retail space. Part of the new design was a curved architectural glass roof. The refurbishment was carried out in 2009 by CD Sealants with Silicone 996.

Application

Resealing of existing mastic that had failed – worth £20 million. Back to back joint giving a complete through joint on the glass roof.
Joints approx 20/ 25mm wide 20mm deep.

Joint Backer Rod was applied to the back of the joint and then the Silicone 996 was applied ontop (joints 20mm wide and 10mm deep).

The Joint Backer Rod was removed from the joint under the canopy and filled with Silicone 996 as well (joints 10mm deep and 20mm wide giving a 20mm x 20mm joint).
