What might cause the waterstop to leak?

  There are many times when Chengdu waterstop is used in life and construction projects. We can understand its basic function - waterstop through the name. Due to the use environment of the waterstop, the substances are different. There may be water leakage during use. What is the reason? We together look.

The selection of the Minka waterstop should be determined comprehensively according to the importance level of the structure, the deformation amount of the deformation joint and the water pressure, the application (application) of the waterstop, the working environment, economic factors and other conditions. What are the reasons for the water stop leaking?

1. Improper material is easy to damage

The material of the existing back-mounted waterstop is soft and hard. The "claw edge" of the back-mounted waterstop processed with the former is thin and soft, and the "claw edge" is easily overwhelmed by the coarse aggregate when the lining concrete is poured, causing it to lose or reduce the water blocking efficiency; For stick-type waterstops, long gauges are easily damaged during storage and transportation, while short gauges need to be spliced ​​during construction. Waterstop damage and splicing are hidden dangers of water leakage in construction joints.

2. Only plug the water without draining the water

All groundwater that may leak through the construction joints has passed through the waterproof layer. If this part of groundwater is provided with a downward drainage channel, the chance of its leakage along the construction joints will be reduced. In fact, for the construction joint waterproofed by the middle-buried waterstop, the gap between the waterstop and the waterproof layer has some water seepage and drainage capacity, which will help the waterproofing of the construction joint.



The existing back-stick waterstop is only blocking but not draining in terms of design guidelines. The seepage water passing through the waterproof layer will hold pressure around the back-mounted waterstop and wait for seepage. If the back-mounted waterstop itself has defects or construction quality problems, water leakage in the construction joints is inevitable.

3. The waterstop on the top of the cave is not dense

The existing back-mounted waterstop relies on the claw edge to be implanted into the concrete to prolong the water seepage process and increase the water seepage resistance to waterproof. At the top of the tunnel, it is difficult to pour and vibrate the lining concrete, and the corners and claw edges are not easy to be filled with concrete; when the initial support profile of the tunnel is not regular and the top of the hole is over-excavated, the back-mounted waterstop Accurate placement and dense filling at the top of the cave are even less guaranteed.

Only by taking effective technical measures, that is, the back-mounted waterstop can be applied to the waterproofing of the construction joints at the top of the tunnel.

The random joints of waterstops appear on the construction joints in the following situations: First, for the convenience of construction, when pouring the lining foundation, the waterstops of about half the length of the construction joints are pre-buried at the construction joints on both sides of the tunnel. The waterstops on both sides are overlapped at the top of the tunnel; the second is that the initial support profile of the tunnel becomes larger, and the length of a single waterstop provided according to the normal specifications cannot meet the length requirements of the variable-length construction joint, so the waterstop has to be carried out during the construction. take longer.

Save the cost of construction joint waterproofing materials, and use several short sections of waterstop to connect the length to complete the waterstop of a construction joint. Undoubtedly, the joint of the waterstop is a hidden danger of water leakage in the tunnel construction joints.

4, the shape is not reasonable enough

The unreasonable shape is manifested in two aspects: one is that the depth of the effective water-stop edge is insufficient, and the coarse aggregate at the corner is difficult to enter, and the corner is not easy to be compacted; There is material consumption without a significant increase in seepage (resistance) along the way.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ELECTRIC BIKE LCD DISPLAY

图片
An  e-bike display   serves an important purpose. Even if the motor is the element that defines an electric bike the most, the E-bike display is an extra feature that underlines the benefits of the integrated technology that distinguishes the machine. The E-bike display monitors the values of all essential parameters that you must be aware of when riding. Most people have only seen an e-bike speedometer. The electricity meter, which shows the instantaneous power output, the pedal assist, the battery capacity, USB charging, and so on, is one example. This article will go over the features and functionalities of E-bike displays.   Capacity of the battery The battery life is displayed at the very top of the screen. Because it is critical in calculating the amount of charge remaining after riding. Riders of electric bikes can use their remaining battery power to assess how far they have cycled. The fading line from left to right indicates battery drain. While cycling, the bat...

THE BEST USE OF LED VANITY MIRRORS

图片
The lighting capability of  LED Mirrors  is almost similar to natural lights. This mirror serves the dual purpose of making a place look beautiful and assistance in self-grooming to people. However, they are more acknowledged for decorating the place. They give a clear vision and are feasible to view yourself than any other form of lighting. They are not only used at homes but in offices, hotels, and boutiques. These mirrors are brilliant to uplift the aura of the place. They provide a classy environment with high energy efficiency. The environmentally friendly characteristic makes them extremely desirable.    WHAT IS AN LED MIRROR? An LED mirror in simple terms is a mirror with the addition of LED bulbs. This could be anything from strip lights around the side of the mirror to create a ‘back-lit’ effect or bulbs straight on the front to create a vintage vanity LED mirror style.  LED mirrors come in all shapes, sizes and styles...

Benefits of Dumbbell Training

图片
  Dumbbell training offers numerous benefits for individuals looking to improve their strength, fitness, and overall well-being. Here are some of the key advantages: Increased Muscle Strength: Dumbbell exercises allow for isolated muscle training, helping to build strength in specific muscle groups. This is particularly beneficial for targeting weak points or imbalances in the body. Improved Muscle Symmetry: By working each side of the body independently,  Hexagon Rubber Dumbbell  training helps improve muscle balance and symmetry. This can reduce the risk of injury and enhance overall aesthetics. Enhanced Range of Motion: Dumbbell exercises often require greater joint mobility and stabilization than barbell or machine exercises. This can help improve flexibility and functional movement patterns. Versatility: Dumbbells offer a wide range of exercise options. You can use them for various exercises, including squats, lunges, presses, curls, and more, making it easy to desig...
