We extend the durability and life span of your building by combining bitumen, bitumen+polyurethane, polyurethane, polyurea based products and professional application in basic waterproofing, which is one of the most important waterproofing groups.
Surface preparation is very important before the foundation waterproofing process. With appropriate repair mortars, segregation, cold joints, vertical connections, weak places are repaired and made suitable for foundation waterproofing..
AFTER APPLICATION
Another important issue after the basic waterproofing process is the protection of the applied waterproofing layer. xps, eps etc. It should be used with thermal insulation boards in appropriate thickness and dns density. Appropriate drainage plate should be applied on the protection layer.
DRAINAGE
The spaces between the bubbles on the drainage plate ensure that the flowing water is drained safely and the structure is protected. The drainage board has extremely high compressive strength and important technical features in tunnel and infrastructure applications.
IMPORTANCE OF WATERPROOFING
Many technologies, products and methods are being developed to seal buildings.
The most common causes of permeability are porous or defective material, poorly sealed joints, cracks in structural members, building defects and inadequate/inappropriate surface treatment.
Leakage of water causes new cracks to form. If waterproofing is not taken into account in the repair, the work will not be long-lasting. Gravitational force, surface tension, and capillary action control the movement of water relative to a structure’s body mass. Therefore, it is necessary to have a solid knowledge of building physics. Waterproofing is very important for the stability of the structure. Once damaged, it cannot be restored to its original state.
It gives results when waterproofing is done properly. The approach should be scientific and systematic. There is no shortcut in waterproofing. All steps and standards must be followed to get results.
Water leaking into buildings due to groundwater, rain and snow freezes or enters into chemical reactions, causing the reinforcement to lose its properties and cause corrosion, that is, rust. The resulting corrosion causes the structural system of the structures to rot and weaken over time. In buildings without waterproofing, the reinforcement loses approximately 60 percent of its initial bearing capacity after 10 years. Waterproofing ensures that buildings are strong by protecting them from the corrosive effects of water.
A nation’s civilization is generally judged by the type of buildings and structures it builds. Water is the creator and at the same time the destroyer of the structure. This is why waterproofing a building is so important. If the ingress of water does not stop in time, it seriously damages the building. The life of a structure depends on its structural stability, and contact with water disrupts this structural stability.
Waterproofing of buildings against the damaging effect of water arises from the need to be protected from water and moisture, which adversely affect the materials used in construction. This negative impact manifests in a variety of ways, such as health problems, structural deterioration, corrosion in a building such as cancer, facility damage and several other problems.
Please note that even a hair-thick crack is sufficient for water to enter any surface. Therefore, the building should be treated with great care.
Using quality materials is a prerequisite. Problems with dampness, leakage and seepage can be effectively avoided by the professional team using materials of acceptable quality.
Today, the chemical industry has revolutionized the construction industry, just like any other industry. Developments in waterproofing materials and technologies are used in the modern construction industry, not only for their ease of application, but also for longer durability and less, easy maintenance. A lot of research is going on globally to prevent water from entering the structure.
