Introducing the Waterstop Steel Plate, also expertly referred to as the steel plate waterstop strip, a quintessential solution in the realm of waterstop materials. Below, you will find a comprehensive overview of the advanced waterproof steel plate, designed for unparalleled performance:
1. Material Characteristics
Waterstop steel plates are meticulously crafted from premium, corrosion-resistant materials such as galvanized or stainless steel, ensuring exceptional longevity and performance. Alternatively, some versions are manufactured from Q235 steel plates, noted for their outstanding rigidity and durability. Ingeniously engineered in V-shaped, U-shaped, or flat plate designs, these steel plates accommodate diverse construction requirements. The edges are thoughtfully folded to significantly enhance bonding strength with concrete, providing robust and reliable sealing.
2. Working Principle
Ingeniously positioned at the juncture between new and old concrete (the construction joint), the waterproof steel plate serves as a formidable barrier against water infiltration. Should water attempt to seep through the joint, this plate effectively obstructs its path. Even if water manages to penetrate between the steel plate and the concrete, the plate's inherent width significantly prolongs the infiltration route, thereby delivering a superb waterproofing effect.
3. Specification and Model
The waterproof steel plates come in a variety of specifications to suit different needs, including dimensions like 200mm * 2mm, 200mm * 3mm, and 300mm * 2mm. They are generally crafted in lengths of 3m or 6m for convenient transport, but can also be tailored to specific requirements. A thickness of at least 3mm is typically mandated, with the width being meticulously aligned with design specifications to ensure optimal performance.
4. Installation Location and Method
For maximum efficacy, the waterproof steel plate is strategically installed at concrete joints, employing welding or overlapping techniques to establish a seamless and continuous waterproof barrier. During installation, it is imperative to ensure the steel plate is flawlessly integrated with the bottom plate reinforcement, and that all necessary protective measures are meticulously implemented to safeguard its integrity.
