Overview
EN 15651-4:2017 is the CEN European standard for cold-applied, non‑structural elastic sealants used in movement joints in floors for interior and exterior building applications - specifically sealants for pedestrian walkways. It defines terminology, performance requirements and test methods for sealants used in floor joints subject to pedestrian loads (including trolleys), balconies, terraces, warehouses and movement joints between concrete slabs. AVCP (assessment and verification of constancy of performance) and marking requirements are covered in EN 15651-5.

If the evaluated secant tensile modulus value exceeds the values specified below for either or both temperatures, the sealant shall be classified as high modulus. Specified values (see Tables 2 and 3, second column) are as follows: — 0,4 N/mm2 at + 23 °C; — 0,6 N/mm2 at - 20 °C. The secant modulus shall be the mean value of the three measured values. Round the mean value to one decimal place. EXAMPLE: Measured values 0,43 N/mm2 0,40 N/mm2 0,46 N/mm2 and mean value 0,43 N/mm2. Reported value0,4 N/mm2 .

The specific intention is to ensure that the sealant continues to perform at - 30 °C, which is a common winter temperature in cold climate areas.
