baguettes de scellement

French term or phrase: baguettes de scellement
Hi. I don't have sufficient context to understand what the "baguettes de scellement" are:

"... À l'examen du dossier, nous estimons que la preuve permettait à la première juge de conclure que les infiltrations d'eau qui sont survenues résultaient de la présence anormale d'eau sur le toit en raison d'un barrage de glace ; à la lumière de l'ensemble de la preuve, la première juge pouvait conclure que les infiltrations d'eau tenaient plus de problèmes inhérents à la conception de l'immeuble ou à son utilisation qu'à l'installation déficiente desBAGUETTES DE SCELLEMENT ou à des vices de qualité des matériaux de revêtement utilisés..."

Any building specialists know what these refer to?

Merci!

better grouting joints
no straight word - as so often building craft terminology, one has to find credible translations

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you. I also do not find this in IATE, could you please be more specific about the source? When I search Google for grouting beads i get a lot of hits about mosaic art.
