TRADITIONAL VS MORDERN METHOD

The structure serves as a protective barrier against various weather conditions like the sun, wind, and rain. Additionally, it provides security from unknown threats during the night. This is the reason why humans have developed the concept of home structures as a shield. For residents seeking a peaceful living environment, professionals in need of comfortable workspaces in commercial complexes, and industries searching for suitable locations.

Humans naturally seek protection from the elements such as wind, sun, and rain, as it is a crucial aspect of our lives. Therefore, humans have developed structures that are designed to provide this much-needed shelter.

The structures are designed in such manner that allows human beings to access their natural elements as well.

Water, along with other natural elements, is crucial for human survival. Without it, we cannot live.

"JAL HI JEEVAN HAI “

“JAL – WATER IS THE LIFE (JEEVAN) FOR THE ALL HUMAN BEING”

Despite the fact that “JAL” is essential for sustaining life, we must ensure that our infrastructure remains safeguarded against water damage.

Water received on the terrace & other roof has to be completely taken out effectively and speedily

There are the several travel path which reroute the water paths and in the process permit stagnation and this will lead the damage the structure

There is some outline area where water stagnation seen

1Rain water with wind effecting the facade of the building
2. Terrace water stagnation
3. Staircase room above terrace is another area for water stagnation
4. Lift Machine room
5. Blow holes around the plumbing line is permitting the water seepage
6. Open type balconies
7. Overhead tank above the terrace
8. Water supply distribution line
9. Sanitary drainage plumbing line
10. Canopies
11. Chajja “sun shade “
12. Vertical and horizontal fins

REASON TO WATER SEEPAGE & LEKAGE

1. TERRACE & CONCREATE SURFACE

Weather effects the concreate with contraction and expansion in different weather form a cracks over the surface like terrace –

chajja – lift room- staircase room etc.

2. SANATARY & WATER SUPPLY PLUMBING LINES

Blow holes are formed around the sanitary and water supply lines are reason to permitting the water seepage in the walls because plumbing lines have limitations for their useful service life

3. External walls cracks

Cracks over the walls due to improper plastering permit the water seepage and dampness

4. Joint of the concrete

Building structure are cast in different- different portion which generate cracks over the period lead to leakage

There are various causes of leaks and seepages in structures, influenced by the nature and purpose of the structure. Residential buildings are designed for living, while commercial complexes have their own specific design requirements. Similarly, factories and industrial plants are designed to suit their unique needs.

Different structure have different reason for seepage and leakage

Method of water proofing

In our present era, numerous techniques have been developed for waterproofing, encompassing both traditional and modern methods.

Some techniques have stood the test of time and remain popular among people. They have proven their effectiveness and are still widely used in various fields. Various techniques have been developed over time to meet the requirements of modern-day conditions and beyond.
