Leakage has become "architectural cancer" Waterproofing projects require quality assurance

Recently, the China Construction Waterproofing Association released the 2013 National Construction Leakage Investigation Project Report, which surveyed a total of 2,849 buildings in major cities across China. The leakage rate of building roof samples reached 95.33%, and the leakage rate of underground building samples reached 57.51%. The household sample leakage rate reached 37.48%. A series of surprising data reflects the current situation of building leakage that is not optimistic in China. The leakage problem known as 'building cancer' has been pushed to the cusp of public opinion.

Zhu Dongqing, chairman of the China Waterproofing Association, said that a previous national investigation of waterproof leakage was started in 1990. It has been a long time ago and the industry has developed rapidly in recent years. It is hoped that the current status of the waterproofing industry will be specifically investigated through this survey. It provides basic data for governments, enterprises, and consumers to analyze the causes of construction leakage and solve the difficulties and guide the healthy development of the industry.

The 2013 National Construction Leakage Investigation Project Report pointed out that the overcapacity in the industry is the cause of the high leakage rate, and the defects in the construction system and the strict supervision of the quality of construction projects are the fundamental reasons for the high leakage rate. Experts believe that to fundamentally solve the problem of leakage, we should try to implement a waterproof project quality assurance insurance system.

High-quality, high-priced waterproof material is difficult to enter the terminal market

In the industrial chain of the construction industry, the waterproof industry is often overlooked and the industry presents a lot of chaos. It is understood that in the waterproof industry, the production capacity of formal enterprises with production licenses is less than 60%, and the number of SMEs with backward production processes and energy-saving and environmentally-friendly technologies is too high, and most of them are backward production capacity. What is more, there is no license production and system. Counterfeit dens have formed a semi-public "base." The serious excess production capacity leads to vicious competition in the industry. It is directly reflected in the production of waterproof products that do not meet the relevant national standards and the proliferation of inferior products.

There is a market for demand. Behind the “prosperous business” of a non-formal waterproofing company is the defect of construction management system and the lack of supervision. Zhu Dongqing explained that there is a huge demand for irregular waterproof products in the construction market because many construction projects still implement the 'lowest bid winning system'.

The cost of waterproofing projects is too low, and a variety of unqualified waterproof products with low prices have appeared on the market. Ye Linbiao, deputy director of the Technical Committee of the Waterproofing Technology Committee of the Chinese Architectural Society, once stated that low-price winning bids are a very bad and unwritten system. If prices are low to a certain degree, it will be impossible to guarantee project quality.

According to reports, waterproof projects usually use the 'total package system', but the total package units often do not have waterproof construction qualifications, they will subcontract out waterproof, decorative and other professional processes, and lower prices to make profits; and subcontracting companies for the points ' A glass of cake will also subcontract the construction work to other low-cost manufacturers. Moreover, the supervisory system in the engineering field is in the form of formalities. It does not do a good job in the supervision of materials and construction and directly creates a huge market for inferior or low-level products.

The ultra-low threshold of the waterproof industry, the lack of construction project management system, and the unfavorable supervision have become a hotbed of counterfeit and shoddy products, making it difficult for high-quality, premium-priced waterproof materials to enter the terminal market.

Lack of perfect waterproof construction technology

Waterproof materials are semi-finished products for construction projects, and they must be subjected to excellent construction techniques in order to reflect their use value. Unqualified operation in the waterproof construction is also an important cause of leakage.

Fan Tianshun, Assistant Secretary-General of the China Quality Association and Director of the User Work Department, said that the current water-proofing techniques and methods lack perfect standards. The construction staff lacks sound construction techniques and lacks understanding of the stringency of the operation steps, directly affecting the waterproofing. The quality of the project, which is always a problem in the construction process.

According to industry analysts, the unqualified construction process is also related to the duration of the construction unit's construction. Some construction projects do not follow the requirements for construction, do not pay attention to waterproofing, and even perform ultra-conventional construction, resulting in reduced lifespan of waterproof layer and leakage. Hidden danger.

Although there are special supervisors and quality monitoring stations for construction work, it is understood that supervision work is often not done in a proper manner and is purely a form. They do not participate in supervision during the construction process, but perform an inspection after the completion of the construction. The lack of supervision with the government has exacerbated the failure of waterproof construction.

In the future, we will implement the waterproof project quality assurance insurance system

Leakage of buildings is not unruly. Its difficulty lies in the need to realize the harmonization of the five links of the system, waterproof design, waterproof material, construction process, and maintenance supervision. In the fundamental way to solve the leakage, experts believe that we should try to implement the waterproof project quality assurance insurance system.

Zhu Dongqing stated at the 4th Waterproof Industry Summit that the solution to the leakage problem at this stage relied mainly on the government and mobilized the industry and enterprises to carry out comprehensive management. The government mainly exerts its power to cut off the demand side of counterfeit and shoddy products, improve the bidding mechanism, and eliminate the simple price bidding mode. With the engineering quality as the core, it strengthens the quality supervision in the engineering field and creates a fair competition environment. The company strengthens self-discipline, promotes industrial upgrading, and jointly resists vicious competition in the market. Industry associations assist the government to strengthen supervision, carry out industry autonomy, and expand the dynamic supervision of industry quality.

Comprehensive management is the main quality management method at this stage. To completely solve the problem of building leakage, experts believe that a waterproof project quality assurance insurance system should be tried. At present, China has adopted a five-year warranty period and a 5% quality deposit system on building leakage problems. Compared with the 70 years of high profits of residential property rights and production of inferior products, it is not enough to mention leakage. 'Everything', because even if there is a leak, it just needs to be repaired. However, it is understood that developed countries and regions such as Europe and the United States generally implement a waterproof project quality assurance insurance system. Once a building leaks, the insurance company pays the premium first, and the insurance company determines the premium of the waterproof engineering company according to the risk situation. The more the waterproof company suffers, the higher the insurance premium is. The higher, therefore, the leakage rate of buildings in Europe and the United States is extremely low.

With the frequent exposure of leakage problems, the government, industry, companies, and society have begun to realize the importance of waterproofing. However, as Ye Linbiao said, there is still a long way to go before the complete solution to the building's waterproofing problem is resolved.
