Abstract
A system includes a compressible, elongated gasket. The gasket includes first and second tubes aligned side-by-side and connected to each other along their common length by a first base and a second base, each of the first base and second base contacting both the first tube and the second tube. A method for sealing a joint between first and second wall panels is described. The method comprises obtaining a first compressible, elongated gasket; positioning the first gasket on an edge face of the first wall panel; attaching the first gasket to the edge face of the first wall panel; and placing the second wall panel adjacent to the first wall panel to compress the first gasket therebetween.
