How to do Waterproofing On Terrace Floor ?
How to do Water Proofing On Terrace Floor & Water Tank
INTRODUCTION
/ SCOPE
The purpose of the
application of waterproofing is to prevent the water to percolate or penetrate
into any water susceptible concrete members.
OBJECT:
- To ensure all concrete members
should be water tight  
PRINCIPLE
Concrete
is highly susceptible to water penetration. Microstructure of concrete has air
voids through which water can percolate and pass through by forming
capillaries. Water if percolates would rust the steel reinforcement
deteriorating the strength on concrete
MATERIAL
Cement,
Sand, Water proofing compound, Bitumen (VG-10) 80/100 , Clay Brick tile, Good
soil, Anti-termite chemical, Cow Dung , Bhoosa, 
Fire Wood, keroscene oil
APPARATUS /
EQUIPMENT
 Trowel, Tagadi, Brush, Chisel, Hammer, Wire
brush,  
HEALTH AND SAFETY
PROVISION
- All works shall comply with safety procedure 
- All field personnel will use PPE
 MUD PHUSKA
PREPARATORY
WORK:
-  Plaster of parapet, Mumty machine room ,Water
     tank, Expansion joint treatment at terrace level must be completed before
     start of water proofing
 - Scaffolding or left out material
     should be removed
 - Any debris or deposit on
     the surface should be removed. 
 - The surface must be
     thoroughly cleaned and free from dust, dirt loose materials, oil or
     grease.
 - Level should be marked on
     parapet minimum 600 above terrace 
 - All rain water pipe is to
     be fixed
 - Ridge line to be marked
 
 PROCEDURE OR METHODOLOGY:
- Convex gola of 1:2:4 cement
     concrete with water proofing compound shall be prepared along parapet,
     mumty and shaft wall. 
 - Uniform layer of bitumen(VG-10)
     shall be applied on terrace. Painted with hot bitumen of approved quality penetration
     80/100  or equivalent @1.7Kg/Sqm.
     Bitumen shall be applied on parapet upto a height of  100mm above finish floor level.
 - Good soil shall be laid in
     desired slope with minimum thickness of 75 mm.
 - Compact the laid soil with wooden
     rammer. 
 - Do ATT after completion of
     compaction.
 - Prepare a homogenous mix of
     good soil , cow dung & bhusa in ratio 8:1:1.
 - Spread homogenous mix over
     compacted soil, thickness shall not be less than 25mm
 - Allow surface to air dry till
     cracks appear
 - Fill the cracks with the same
     homogenous mix
 - Lay the brick tile over dry
     surface of homogeneous mix with the help of mud mortar
 - Joints in brick tiles shall
     not be less than 6 mm.
 - Joint of parapet and tile
     surface should be treated with concave gola.
 - Pointing of brick tiles shall
     be carried out with 1:4 cement mortar
 - Prepare khurra at RWP
     location
 
INSPECTION
§  80:20 ratio of bitumen and
kerosene is to be maintained during boiling
§  Bitumen shall be applied on roof
surface between 180°C-190°C.
§  Slab should be dry before
application of bitumen.
§  Level is marked on walls before start
of work
§  Bitumen shall not have any air
voids
§  Soil should contain Optimum Moisture
Content before filling
§  The surface of finished roof shall
be kept wet for a period of 7 days.
