coverings on concrete joints
I think "intercrystalline grout" refers to "concrete joint", where it is prone to water leakage. Caps are "coverings/covers". So, the whole term is "coverings on concrete joints" or "concrete joint covers".

Sorry but I have a second thought. It may simply mean "concrete covers" because cracks may occur anywhere, not just joints. "Intercrystalline" may just show the property of concrete; "covers for concrete, which is made up of tiny pieces of concrete powder, sand grains, etc.".
