The type of PVC Plastic Waterstop Tapes used in concrete works In the selection process, it is necessary to know whether to apply waterproofing in the joint or to prevent movement transfers, or to perform an application in which both features are predominant. If it is necessary to resist the pressurized water on the floor of the building, PVC Waterstop Tapes to be used in the joint should be used on the surfaces of the concrete that come into contact with water in a way that prevents water from leaking into the joints. If the pressurized floor does not contain water and it is desired to prevent the transfer of dynamic movements in the joint, then central type PVC Waterstop Tapes used in the center of the concrete section should be used. If the structure is on the seismic belt or is built in places where collapse is expected, then the band type that will absorb the excessive stresses that will occur and resistant to the stresses in the diagonal direction should be selected. Table A shows the usage areas of tape types.
