Thanks Colbyt. How is it applied? Between the house/foundation and ramp
(sandwiched between), is it applied over top of the joint between the
house/foundation and ramp, or some other way?

Hi. I want to build a concrete ramp for my shed where I keep my wheel
barrow and push mower, so instead of lifting them in, I can just roll'em

up.
I was reading on quikrete.com about building concrete ramps, and it says
when steps are being built against a house or other foundation be sure to
apply a ½" mastic expansion joint.
How do I do this and what additional materials do I need to create this
mastic expansion joint? Thanks for any help.



All I have ever seen used is the 1/2" thick black material (1/2' thick
3-4"
tall and about 4' wide).

It should be stocked at Lowes or HD on the same asile as the other
concrete
products. If not ask I know I have seen it there.
