Bridges research package - EP 6: skirtings and edge terminations as well as connections on mountings (VSS2006/516_OBF)
Overview
Background & policy context:
The EK 5.10 has, when writing the standard SN 640 450, the edge connections and connections to fixtures not treated, although the execution of these details for the functioning of the waterproofing system is of great importance. The crucial reason was the diversity of existing systems, combined with a lack of standardization for the relevant data (collected experience objective background on the various systems).
The research project is planned as thorough study of work, because of the Preparatory Commission believes that therefore standardisation required information is scattered in many national and international documents available (literature, documents of professional associations, manufacturer instructions, experience of builders).
Objectives:
The main goal of the single project is to study
- Which systems are basically suitable for edge connections to waterproofings and fittings
- With what systems of a functioning edge connections, dense and permanent connection to improvements can be achieved
- How the systems concerning site suitability (temperature and humidity) can be assessed
- How the connections in situ can be reviewed resp. checked
- What is the long-term experience with various systems (survey)
