| PROGRAMME 2003 |
 |
| Morning: 9.00 a.m. |
| |
Knowledge of the characteristics and the behaviour of polymer-bitumen waterproofing membranes |
| |
 |
Waterproofing materials
- petroleum bitumen
- the difference between tar and bitumens |
|
Polymers in waterproofing products
- APP and SBS polymer-bitumen mixes
- synthetic oils |
|
The reinforcement of the membrane
- non-woven polyester fabric
- biarmato (double-reinforced, non-woven polyester fabric and glass fibre mat)
- glass fibre mat |
|
The influence of the reinforcement on the thermo-mechanical behaviour of the membrane |
|
Possible problems with shrinkage at high and low temperatures and the banana effect on membranes reinforced with non-woven polyester fabric
- The solution: composite reinforcement |
|
A comparison of membranes:
- APP
- SBS
- Composite multi-layer with differentiated mix and composite reinforcement |
|
The finishes of the faces of the waterproofing membrane and relevant warnings for installation |
|
The rules and regulations
- Italian stadards
- European stadards
- CE Mark
- UEATC Agrement |
|
| |
Basic criteria for the correct planning of the build-up on a roof |
| |
|
The elements of the build-up:
- the barrier vapor
- the thermal insulation
- the waterproofing layer |
|
The importance of the connection to the support and between the layers and the relevant influence on the general behaviour of the build-up |
|
The new torch-bonding system for thermal insulation on the rusticated membrane PROMINENT without using the molten oxidised bitumen boiler |
|
Elements that have a negative influence on the behaviour of visible layers, causing flaws:
- bends
- breaks
- the layer and insulating panels lifting
- other |
|
Protecting the waterproofing layer from foot traffic:
- protecting the layer from foot or road traffic
- gravel |
|
Protecting waterproofing layers that won't be subject to foot traffic:
- self-protected: slate, metal
- painting and the relevant warnings for application |
|
Protection from the wind and hail |
|
12.30 - 14.00 p.m.: Working lunch
Afternoon 14.00 p.m.
|
| |
Planning the build-up and drawing up the specifications and the estimate with the Projectflux Installers Cd-Romin for the various fields of use |
| |
Flat Roof subject to Foot Traffic
- Flat Roof not subject to Foot Traffic
- Foundations
- Undertile
- Parkings
- Carparks
- Roof Gardens
- Protection From Electromagnetic Waves
- Protection From Ground Currents
- Protection From Radon Gas
- Other |
| |
Presentation of the Projectplan Prescritbers Cd-Rom in the various fields of use |
| |
Training on the diagnosis and solving the most common problems regarding the waterproofing layer with the projection of real cases |
| |
Presentation of the Internet web site |
17.30 p.m.
- Presentation of the course participation certificates
- End of work |
