Backer rod must exceed the width of joint opening by approximately 25%  to insure compression to inner wall surfaces of joint as it moves with expansion and contraction.

       d. Apply joint sealant  into joint opening. Sealant should  be applied starting at   lowest  point (grade) to highest point roof) in order to avoid air voids. Entire joint should be sealed at one time.  Do not start application one day and complete  the next. Tool immediately to insure a workmanlike appearance.
