ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for defining an expansion joint seal with a belt comprising a body portion elongated in the longitudinal direction and having a first edge bead at one end and a second edge bead at the other end. A first edge bead is inserted within a larger diameter first cylindrical cavity elongated in the transverse direction and defined by inner and outer recesses between a first clamp bar and a first clamping surface. A second edge bead then is inserted within a larger diameter second cylindrical cavity, also elongated in the transverse direction and defined by a second clamp bar and a second clamping surface. Each clamp bar then is fastened to locate a bead edge loosely within a surrounding cavity. Finally, a sealant material is injected under pressure into each cavity, so as to surround the edge bead loosely positioned therein, and thereby create a tight seal.
