The waterstop is partially or completely buried in the concrete during concrete casting. There are many sharp-pointed stones and sharp steel bars in the concrete, because the tear strength of plastic and rubber is 3-5 times lower than the tensile strength. Once the water stop belt is punctured or torn, no large external force is required, and the crack will expand. Therefore, during the positioning of the water stop and the concrete pouring process, the positioning method and the pouring pressure should be paid attention to avoid the water belt being blocked. Puncture, affecting the effect of stopping water. Then, Shanshui Rubber will explain the specific considerations for you.

1.The water stop belt should not be exposed to the sun for a long time to prevent rain, and should not be in contact with highly polluting chemicals.
2.In the transportation and construction, to prevent mechanical and steel damage to the water stop.

3.During the construction process, the waterstop must be reliably fixed to avoid displacement during pouring of concrete and to ensure the correct position of the waterstop in the concrete.
4.The method of fixing the waterstop is: using additional steel reinforcement, special fixture fixing, lead wire and template fixing. If you need to pierce, you can only choose the edge installation area of the water stop belt, and do not damage other parts.
5.When the user orders, the length of the product should be calculated according to the engineering organization and the design drawings. The special-shaped structure should have the drawings, and the waterstops should be connected as a whole in the factory. If the connection is required in the field, the electric heating plate can be vulcanized and bonded. Or a method of cold bonding (rubber waterstop) or welding (plastic waterstop).
