How can waterproof casing solve the problem of water seepage?
With the continuous development of construction technology, waterproofing technology is also improving. Waterproof casing is a key component in the building structure. Its main function is to prevent water seepage and leakage from the wall. The following will introduce how waterproof casing can solve the problem of water seepage.
First of all, the material of waterproof casing should be made of stable quality, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and high strength. The usual materials are PVC, polyurethane, EPDM and other materials. Among them, PVC materials have good weather resistance and corrosion resistance, suitable for waterproofing projects in a variety of environments; polyurethane materials have high strength and flexibility, can adapt to larger deformation; EPDM materials have excellent heat resistance, cold resistance and ozone resistance, suitable for waterproofing projects in a variety of climatic conditions.
Second, the installation of waterproof casing is also very important. In the installation process, the following points need to be noted:
1 . The length of the casing should be appropriate, not too long or too short. If it is too short, it will lead to poor waterproofing; if it is too long, it will lead to uneven installation, affecting the beauty.
2 . The casing should fit tightly with the wall and there should be no gap. If there is a gap, it will lead to water seepage problems.
3 . In the installation process, you need to pay attention to the slope of the waterproof casing. Generally speaking, the slope of the waterproof casing should be between 2% and 5%. If the slope is too small, it will lead to slow water flow, which will lead to water leakage; if the slope is too large, it will lead to poor drainage, affecting the waterproof effect.
4 . The connection of the waterproof casing is also a place where water seepage problems can easily occur. Therefore, special connectors need to be used to make the connection, and the tightness and waterproofness of the connection needs to be ensured.
Finally, the waterproof casing also needs to be checked and maintained regularly. During use, the waterproof casing may be affected by various factors, such as climate, external forces, etc., which may lead to damage or rupture of the casing.
