An efficient and reliable installation for a water tight and an aesthetically pleasing transition between adjacent building or construction components is provided with use of a backer rod material for placement between adjacent building or construction components for subsequent caulking. A closed cell foam backer rod material includes a terminal end portion of the backer rod joined to a remainder thereof by a frangible connection or perforated joint. The frangible connection or joint in the backer rod is nonlinear or arcuate-shaped to provide a crown- shaped or convex-shaped backer rod surface to receive the caulking compound to finish the joint. After the backer rod material is installed into the joint, the terminal end portion of the backer rod is removed by being torn along the frangible joint. A bead of caulk or similar finishing material is applied in the recess to provide a smooth and aesthetically pleasing transition from the frame to the wall. The convex or crown shape of the exposed surface of the backer rod material allows for and promotes integrity of the caulking compound during shifting, expansion and/or contraction of the adjacent building components relative to each other.
Une installation efficace et fiable pour une transition étanche et esthétiquement agréable entre des composantes de construction adjacentes est présentée pour être utilisée comme matériau de tige d'appui pour le positionnement entre les composantes de construction adjacentes en vue d'un calfeutrage subséquent. Un matériau de tige d'appui en mousse cellulaire fermée comprend une portion d'extrémité terminale de la tige d'appui jointe à un reste par une connexion frangible ou un joint perforé. La connexion frangible ou le joint dans la tige d'appui est non linéaire ou courbe pour offrir une surface de tige d'appui en forme de couronne ou convexe pour recevoir le composé de calfeutrage pour finir le joint. Après l'installation du matériau de tige d'appui dans le joint, la portion d'extrémité terminale de la tige d'appui est retirée en étant tordue le long du joint frangible. Une perle de calfeutrant ou un matériau de finition similaire est appliquée dans le creux pour fournir une transition lisse et esthétiquement agréable du cadre au mur. La forme convexe ou en couronne de la surface exposée du matériau de tige d'appui permet et favorise l'intégrité du composé de calfeutrage pendant le déplacement, la dilatation ou la contraction des composantes de construction adjacentes entre elles.
