Installation of a proper root barrier in a green roof system is very important in order to protect the concrete slab of roof and the root penetration in the waterproofing layer. To select the proper root barrier materials and methods, it is necessary to understand the environmental conditions affecting the waterproofing-root barrier system in green roof construction site. Therefore, we suggested as the environmental performance indexes four kinds of performance requirements; root penetration, chemical attack by chemical agent or fertilizer, load impact by soil depth and size of plant, and water pressure. The related four test methods were suggested for the inspection of these performance indexes. In this research, we could suggest for kinds of test methods as standard test methods to evaluate the environmental performance of waterproofing-root barrier for greening roof system.

In this study, the performance of water tightness of water expansional sealing material and gasket was evaluated. The water tightness test was performed varying the type of inner pressure condition, for which the water expansional sealing material was inundated for 5 days to evaluate the ability of water tightness. In order to carry out this test, we made use of two types of water expansional sealing material; general type and combined type with non-expansional rubber. In the case of gasket, EPDM gasket and complex gasket sticked to the water expansional sealing material were applied. The performance of water tightness depended on the construction defect and the deformation of segment. The construction defect and segment deformation were generally expressed by gap and offset of the construction joint. The results, of tests showed that the performance of water tightness was largely influenced by the gap between segments. Management criteria of gap and offset were proposed.

In this study, seven companies(A~G) designated as new construction technology selected and evaluated KS F 2622: Method of test for performance evaluation of membrane roofing systems that are similar to field application conditions. As a result of the test, it was confirmed that although all test specimens exceeded KS standards in the basic physical, it was difficult to obtain field quality performance in weak areas such as joints and vertical parts of the adhesive coating method in water-tightness, sagging resistance, swelling resistance tests except for fatigue(crack behavior) tests.

Insulation of rooftop is one of the major performance to energy-saving construction. Further, waterproofing performance is also important. For such a reason, it is need to develop waterproofing method containing thermal insulation property. This study was wanted to evaluate thermal insulation performance about the composite waterproofing method of thermal supplement type that is developed recently. As a result of waterproofing performance test, every test item was showed over the performance standards of KS (Korean (Industrial) Standards). And the result of thermal insulation performance test, the highest temperature in the styrofoam box was $25.91^{\circ}C$, the bubble sheet box was $17.28^{\circ}C$, the insulation sheet box was $15.47^{\circ}C$ and the waterproofing sheet box of thermal supplement type was $24.11^{\circ}C$. In observations of thermal bridges of sheet's joint, thermal bridges was not identified at the sheet's joint. As a result, composite waterproofing method of thermal supplement type is interpreted to have thermal insulation performance.

Surface of the wooden cultural heritage has been protected from moisture by natural oils (such as perilla oil and tung oil), which accelerated degradation. But we can find seldom the research on the processes and performances of oil coatings. In this study, the water resistant performances by wood direction were compared to 3 types of natural oil and 2 types of oil stain, and the effect of additional indoor conditioning and temperature of oil were appraised in longitudinal direction. The natural oils block moisture about 79.2% comparing to the control in longitudinal direction. Especially the tung oil showed the outstanding water resistance about 90.5%. The water resistant performances decreased about 8.8% by additional indoor conditioning for 2 years. Heated oil improved the water resistance about average 5.0%.(Max. 9.6% with linseed oil).

Since 1970s, urethane waterproofing method is broadly used in rooftops, underground spaces, and sports stadium for its outstanding ultraviolet blockage, watertightness, and elasticity. However, development of slippage-resistance and endurance, improvement of function considering convenience and visually pleasing of users, urethane waterproofing method is necessary, since rooftops and underground spaces have slippage and external force risks. Therefore, many improved waterproofing methods are being developed and, recently, embo-thane waterproofing method, which applies embo-spray coating system, has been developed. This paper explains exposure, nonexposure, and floor-material of embo-thane waterproofing method, and then perform experimental study for comparison with urethane waterproofing method about tensile strength, coefficient of expansion, performance of bond, anti-abrasion, and slippage-resistance. In addition, the performance index was presented for the superiority of embo-thane waterproofing method compared to urethane by setting up evaluation criteria considering not only physical performance but also design side of embo-thane waterproofing method, and Value Analysis applying AHP. Also for an assessment considering uncertain result, Monte Carlo Simulation Method was used to operate reliability analysis through statistic approach method.

불투수성 방수아스팔트는 아스팔트 혼합물이 골재와 골재 사이를 강력하게 부착하며, 골재간의 공간을 메우고, 골재표면을 두껍게 코팅하여 골재 상호간의 강한 접착을 유지시켜주는 열가소성 폴리머를 사용한 포장공법이다. 이러한 불투수성 아스팔트는 기존의 가열식 일반아스팔트 공법에서 문제시 되고 있는 내구성 저하와 잦은 유지보수로 인한 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 공법으로 차세대 고내구성 포장공법으로 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구는 불투수성 방수아스팔트 혼합물 개발을 위한 연구의 일환으로 상온과 영하 $10^{\circ}C$의 조건하에서 기존 아스팔트수지와 새로운 개념의 불투수성 고분자계 수지의 부착성능 비교 검토하였으며, 아스팔트혼합물의 부착성능도 실험을 통해 비교 하였다. 실험결과 불투수성 아스팔트의 부착성능이 기존 아스팔트에 비해 상온은 물론 저온에서도 뛰어난 성능을 발휘하는 것을 확인 하였다.

This research aims to make a contribution to the development of waterproofing technique for rooftops by analyzing and understanding the problems of the currently used waterproofing method and their causes. To do this, this research developed an eco-friendly waterproofing method that supplements the weaknesses of the conventionally used method by analyzing the problems of leakage resulting from design and construction work to diminish leakage, improving the quality of construction work, reducing labor required and the period of construction, and improving environment alconditions. The characteristics of the newly developed method are comparatively analyzed with the convention alpractices, and are evaluated on the site.

The demands about eco friendly space are increased as buildings are denser in downtown, and green system on the roof and the artificial ground are widely being applied. The construction of green system applies a waterproof layer, a root barrier and a protection concrete layer. Assembly of these many layers leads to a long construction term, and cause many defects. This study is to evaluate one layer-hybrid sheet which gets waterproof and root barrier performance simultaneously, which is developed to use in the new green system. As results, the performances of physical properties, durability, waterproof and root barrier not only exceeded quality standards but also showed excellent durability. In addition, mock-up test would be proceed to certify long term performance.

This study is about appling non-exposure waterproofing method which combines the Cement Polymer Modified Waterproof Membrane coating and Selfadhesive Rubberized Asphalt sheet to the Roof Structure, Because there are a lot of problems in previous methods. So We had the performance tests using waterproofing method which combines two materials, and we analyzed the results. This study showed us very important results. We had bond strength test and tensile test under high, normal and low temperature, and the results were successful. And we also tested for coping with crack and movement. We found that tested materials were safe in those conditions. I think that Non-Exposure waterproofing method which combines the Cement Polymer Modified Waterproof Membrane coating and Selfadhesive Rubberized Asphalt sheet is available to concrete structure.
