Product Details

Weidun® 008 EVA Waterproofing Membrane is a kind of anti-seepage material composed of high molecular polymer as the basic material, which can prevent liquid leakage and gas volatilization.

Its a thin, flexible, and impermeable sheet made from a combination of ethylene and vinyl acetate polymers.

  • Excellent crack resistance
  • Excellent weather resistance
  • Strong elasticity, light specific gravity, high elongation
  • No open flame, easy to apply
Uses

Weidun® 008 EVA Waterproofing Membrane is designed for tunnel waterproofing project.

How To Use
Surface Preparation

The surface of the tunnel walls and floor need to be cleaned and prepared for the application of the EVA waterproofing membrane. This may involve removing any existing coatings, smoothing out any rough areas, and ensuring that the surface is dry and free of debris.

Primer application

A primer is typically applied to the prepared surface in order to promote adhesion between the surface and the EVA waterproofing membrane. The primer may need to cure for a specified period of time before the next step can be taken.

Membrane Installation

The EVA Waterproofing Membrane is then applied to the prepared and primed surface using an adhesive or heat-welding method. The membrane is typically rolled out and cut to fit the dimensions of the surface, with care taken to ensure that it is installed without any wrinkles or bubbles.

Seaming

The seams between adjacent sheets of EVA waterproofing membrane need to be sealed in order to prevent water from seeping through. This may be done using heat welding or by applying a separate sealing tape.

Backfilling

Once the EVA waterproofing membrane has been installed and inspected, the tunnel can be backed with soil or other materials as necessary.

Advantages
  • Excellent water resistance -suitable for applications where water pressure is high, such as tunnels
  • Flexibility – can be bent and wrapped around complex tunnel geometries, ensuring a tight seal and preventing water intrusion
  • Durability -resistant to degradation from UV light, chemicals, and extreme temperatures,ensuring, a long service life
  • Cost effective- Especially for large tunnel project.
Storage and Handing

To prevent damage, support rols on end in an upright position and store in a clean,dry location, covering as necessary to protect from environment damage.
Monitor environmental conditions during storage, handing and application.

FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear, honest answers about how our Product.

How is EVA waterproofing membrane installed in tunnel projects?
Tunnel waterproofing with EVA membrane is a specialized installation process involving substrate preparation, protective layers, membrane positioning, fixing, detailing and seam welding. Because tunnel geometry and site conditions can be complex, the installation method should be designed for the specific project. Please contact the membrane supplier for detailed technical guidance before construction.
Does EVA waterproofing membrane need to be welded?
Yes. The overlap seams of EVA waterproofing membrane rely on welding to form a continuous watertight layer. Seam quality is therefore critical to the performance of the entire tunnel waterproofing system, and welding should be carried out and inspected by trained installers.
Where is EVA waterproofing membrane commonly used?
EVA waterproofing membrane is widely used in tunnels and other underground engineering applications where a flexible continuous waterproofing layer is required. The complete system is normally designed together with protective geotextile, fixing details, welded seams and waterstop solutions.
Why is installer experience important for EVA tunnel waterproofing?
Tunnel surfaces, penetrations, corners, fixing points and construction joints create complex detailing requirements. Experienced installers are important because membrane positioning, allowance for movement, welding quality and protection against puncture all directly affect the final waterproofing performance.
What should be checked after EVA membrane welding?
After welding, the overlap seams and detailed areas should be carefully inspected to confirm continuous and reliable joints. The project inspection method should follow the specified tunnel waterproofing procedure, and any defective seam should be repaired before subsequent construction proceeds.
