A rubbery asphalt layer of the membrane is facing directly to the underground structural body. A step of applying a protection concrete on the membrane that is applied on the concrete layer is added after the rubbery asphalt membrane applied step. Then, applying a steel frame or reinforcing steel to adjacent membrane and a formwork to an inner face of the external wall is added. Finally, pouring concrete to a space defined by the external wall and the formwork to allow direct contact of the rubbery asphalt of the membrane to the protection concrete and the concrete; and curing the concrete for around 7˜14 days to allow secure engagement of the waterproof membrane to the base slab and the external wall by capillarity induced by the solidfying process of the concrete so as to completely form a plant-root like waterproof layer to the concrete are added to complete the process.
Description
- The present invention relates to a method of applying a waterproof membrane to a base slab and external wall of an underground construction, and more particularly to a method that applies a self-adhesive waterproof membrane made of rubbery asphalt to the external wall and base slab of the underground construction. The rubbery asphalt will be melt to semi-liquid status when the external wall and base slab solidify to dissipate heat so that the molten rubbery asphalt is able to adhere to the external wall and base slab securely and therefore block the reticular external wall and base slab so as to accomplish the purpose of waterproof to the external wall and base slab of the underground construction.
- Due to the limited space available in metropolitan area, more and more buildings have underground constructions to function as parking lots, shopping malls, etc. However, unlike the constructions above ground, that are seldom influenced by moisture, the constructions underground are always influenced by moisture. The underground moisture often infiltrates into the interior of the underground construction to cause the interior space damp. It is well known in the art that when a space is damp, it is not suitable for people to live or store objects. The danger of the underground water has become an increasing threat to the underground construction. Therefore, how to keep water out of the underground construction so as to provide a dry, useful and safe space has become an important lesson.
- Currently there are two different methods to prevent water from infiltrating into the underground construction, the drainage and the water block-up.
- The drainage method is easy to implement, however, the amount of water drained is limited. To the area where large amount of constructions are dense and the soil is sensitive to soil settlement or displacement, the drained water may cause a great soil settlement or soil displacement. Based on the threat, large construction often adopts the water block-up method to accomplish the purpose of waterproof.
- The water block-up method is generally implemented to the external wall and the base slab of an underground construction and there are two ways of implementing the water block-up, one is the pre-coating of plastic waterproof membrane and the other is the pre-coating of self-adhesive waterproof membrane. The two methods of implementing the water block-up method is basically the same. The difference lies on the material of the membrane, which influences the waterproof effect. The following is an explanation to the implementation of the two different methods.
- Pre-coating plastic waterproof membrane
- With reference to FIG. 1, an
underground construction 1 has abase slab 11, anconcourse slab 12, atop slab 13 and anexternal wall 14. The plasticwaterproof membrane 2 is made of high molecular polymer, which makes themembrane 2 elastic and good acid and alkaline resistance so that after themembrane 2 is adhered to the external wall and the base slab, the external wall and the base slab have great waterproof ability. - The step(s) for implementing the method is to first prepare a
concrete layer 21 on the base slab and aprotective layer 23 on a diaphragm wall orretaining wall 15 of theexternal wall 14. Themembrane 2 is implemented on theconcrete layer 21 and the outside of theprotective layer 23. On themembrane 2 implemented on theconcrete layer 21, aprotection concrete 22 is formed. Then, adjacent to the side of themembrane 2 and the top of theprotection concrete 22, steel frame (not shown) is installed to become theunderground construction 1. With such an arrangement, themembrane 2 is able to directly contact theprotection concrete 22 and theprotective layer 23 so as to form a waterproof layer for different concrete layers. - Pre-coating self adhesive waterproof membrane
- With reference to FIG. 2, the plastic
waterproof membrane 3 is made of high molecular polymer, which makes themembrane 3 elastic and good acid and alkaline resistance so that after themembrane 3 is adhered to the external wall and the base slab, the external wall and the base slab have great waterproof ability. - The step(s) for implementing the method is to first prepare a
concrete layer 31 on the excavation site and aprotective layer 23 on a diaphragm wall or retainingwall 15 of theexternal wall 14. Themembrane 3 is implemented on theconcrete layer 31 and the outside of theprotective layer 33. On themembrane 3 implemented on theconcrete layer 31, theprotection concrete 32 is formed. Then, adjacent to the side of themembrane 3 and the top of theprotection concrete 32, steel frame or reinforcing steel (not shown) is installed to accomplish theunderground construction 1. With such an arrangement, themembrane 3 is able to directly contact theprotection concrete 32 and theprotective layer 33 so as to form a waterproof layer for different concrete layers. - Following is a comparison table showing the advantage and disadvantage of the two methods above.

Back-up engineering X O when there is a failure in the implementation of the membrane 10. Environmental pro- X O tection and safety feature - From the comparison above, it is noted that the pre-coating self-adhesive waterproof membrane has better performance.
- In general, the waterproof engineering to the underground construction is limited to the soil condition of the area where the working site is located and the worker is forced to implement the pre-coating waterproof membrane to achieve the waterproof effect. The waterproof membrane normally is chosen from PVC membrane, asphalt-polystyrene membrane, acetate-polystyrene . . . etc. No matter what kind of method is chosen for pre-coating waterproof membrane and what kind of material is chosen for the waterproof membrane, the conventional method is not satisfactory to meet the modem needs.
- After the conventional method for implementing the waterproof membrane is finished, more or less there is seep in the base slab and the external wall. In order to keep the interior of the underground construction dry, effective measure to eliminate water seeping is a must. However, to capture or patch the place where the water seep occurs is somewhat difficult and the project cost for capturing and patching the water seep often exceeds the original budget, which causes the uncertainty of the overall cost. Therefore, the construction industry often takes budget raising as a pretty common situation. The difficulties for capturing and patching the water seepage may be concluded as follows:
- 1. There is no complete contact between the waterproof membrane and the concrete body.
- 2. There are a lot of micro pores in the concrete body and when the water seeps into these pores; and flows around, it is almost impossible to tell where the water is coming from.
- 3. Because there is no certain way to pin point where the water is from, trial-and-error is often adopted to search for the exact location where the water infiltrates and seeps.
- Recently, the waterproof membrane produced by U.S. company called “GRACE” does have superior performance in waterproof effect when compared with the conventional method and whose back-up engineering is much easier. However, the ingredient of the membrane is unique and the cost is high, therefore, the overall construction cost is impossible to be reduced, which is a mission impossible for the construction industry trying to upgrade the waterproof effectiveness with a low cost.
- To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention intends to provide an improved method implementing waterproof membrane to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
- The primary objective of the invention is to provide a method that applies a self-adhesive waterproof membrane made of rubbery asphalt prior to the construction of external wall and base slab of the underground structure. The rubbery asphalt will be melt to semi-liquid status when the external wall and base slab solidify to dissipate heat so that the molten rubbery asphalt is able to adhere to the external wall and base slab securely by means of capillarity to drain the excessive water in the concrete and therefore block the porous surface of external wall and base slab so as to accomplish the purpose of waterproof to the external wall and base slab of the underground construction.
- Another objective of the invention is to provide a method to apply a rubbery asphalt that is able to be melted to a semi-liquid state so that the molten rubbery asphalt is able to adhere to the base slab and the external wall in an irregular manner so as to block water seep effectively.
- Still, another objective of the invention is to provide an improved method using easy accessible low-priced rubbery asphalt to replace with high-priced waterproof membrane.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a method that has no heat welding requirement, longer working period, special tools to perform tests (penetration and vacuum tests), poisonous gases generation while performing heat welding . . . etc.
- Other objects, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

- FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged schematic view showing the adhesion of the rubbery asphalt to the base slab and the external wall.
- With reference to FIG. 3, the present invention is to provide an improved method for applying a waterproof membrane prior to the construction of the base slab and the external wall of an
underground structure 1. Theunderground construction 1 normally has abase slab 11, anconcourse slab 12, atop slab 13 and anexternal wall 14. - The step for applying the method comprises:
- (a) applying a
concrete layer 14 on the working site and aprotective layer 43 on a diaphragm wall or retainingwall 15 of theexternal wall 14; - (b) applying a rubbery asphalt
waterproof membrane 4 on theconcrete layer 41 and the outside of theprotective layer 43; wherein arubbery asphalt 40 that is made of themembrane 4 is facing directly to the underground structure; - (c) applying a
protection concrete 42 on themembrane 4 that is applied on theconcrete layer 41; - (d) applying a steel frame or reinforcing steel (not shown and numbered) to
adjacent membrane 4 and a formwork to an inner face of theexternal wall 14; - (e) pouring concrete to a space defined by the
external wall 14 and the formwork to allow direct contact of therubbery asphalt 40 of themembrane 4 to theprotection concrete 42 and the concrete; and - (f) curing the concrete for around 7˜14 days to allow secure engagement of the
waterproof membrane 4 to thebase slab 11 and theexternal wall 14 so as to completely form a waterproof layer to the concrete. - During the curing process, the concrete dissipates heat at about 45˜60° C. The boiling point of the
rubbery asphalt 40 is at about 70˜80° C. Therefore, therubbery asphalt 40 is resilient and has a fixed appearance at room temperature. When the temperature rises to 40° C., therubbery asphalt 40 begins to melt to semi-liquid state. Accordingly, the present invention uses this feature of therubbery asphalt 40 to securely engage with thebase slab 11 and theexternal wall 14 of theunderground construction 1. - In step (e), using the dissipated heat from the concrete of the
base slab 11 and theexternal wall 14 during the curing process is able to melt the rubbery asphalt layer ofmembrane 4 so as to release the semi-liquidrubbery asphalt 40. The semi-liquid rubbery asphalt is viscous so that when it flows through the concrete, a part of therubbery asphalt 40 stays and then penetrate into the porous surface of the concrete structure. The main reason for the penetration of therubbery asphalt 40 is that the capillarity occurred on the concrete face expelling water contained inside the concrete during the curing process, the others are the soil pressure from outside of the wall, the earth reaction from the base slab and the self weight of the structure , etc. Therefore, the semi-liquidrubbery asphalt 40 is able to penetrate into the face of theprotection concrete 42 and theexternal wall 14. After the heat dissipation is over and the concrete is cooled down, the semi-liquidrubbery asphalt 40 starts to return to its original state. When the recovery of the rubbery asphalt is over, therubbery asphalt 40 is able to adhere to an outer face of the concrete of theexternal wall 14 and thebase slab 11 securely engaged with theprotection concrete 42. - With reference to FIG. 4, when the semi-liquid
rubbery asphalt 40 of thewaterproof membrane 4 adheres theexternal wall 14 and theprotection concrete 42 of thebase slab 11, therubbery asphalt 40 hasextensions 401 extending out like the plant root. Theextensions 401 fill the porous surface of theexternal wall 14 and theprotection concrete 42 so that after the semi-liquidrubbery asphalt 40 returns to its normal state, the porous surface of theexternal wall 14 and theprotection concrete 42 has a effective waterproof layer. - With reference to FIG. 5, another preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown, wherein the step (c) of the method shown above is able to be neglected. That is, the
protection concrete 42 on top of themembrane 4 is not necessary so that in step (e) therubbery asphalt 40 is able to have direct contact to the concrete. With such an arrangement and after the concrete curing process, the solidifiedrubbery asphalt 40 is able to have direct contact with theexternal wall 14 and thebase slab 11. - With reference to FIG. 6, when the semi-liquid
rubbery asphalt 40 of thewaterproof membrane 4 adheres theexternal wall 14 and thebase slab 11, therubbery asphalt 40 hasextensions 401 extending out like the plant root. Theextensions 401 fill the pores of the surface of theexternal wall 14 and thebase slab 11 so that after the semi-liquidrubbery asphalt 40 returns to its normal state, the porous surface of theexternal wall 14 and thebase slab 11 has an effective waterproof layer. - In the embodiment of the present invention, the
waterproof membrane 4 is composed of arubbery asphalt 40, a polyester with high density or a layer of fiber or a layer of polyester polymer. Therubbery asphalt 40 may be added with gravel, aggregates 5, slag or the like to increase the adhesion with the concrete. Therubbery asphalt 40 may be added to a single face of thewaterproof membrane 4 or both side faces of thewaterproof membrane 4. - The waterproof membrane of the present invention has an adhesion intensity with the concrete, which is up to 2.3 kg/cm. When gravel is added to the membrane, the adhesion intensity is increased to 2.4 kg/cm. From the following test tables, it is known that the adhesion intensity is well above the 1.0-2.0 kg/cm, the standard value.
