Urethane waterproofing materials which currently being used most commonly in the Korean domestic market have high applicability and construct layers without forming any joints, but under the influence of low temperature and low humidity, as well as the thickness of the applied layer, the curing time of this material may become extended in construction sites. To resolve these issues, a proposed method of using water-hardening type of polyurethane waterproofing materials are being developed. However, there currently lacks any standards or evaluation methods on determining an optimal mixture ratio of water for the water-hardening polyurethane waterproofing materials. Therefore, for the establishment of a board applicability of the water-hardening polyurethane waterproofing methods in construction sites, this study objectively analyzes the changes in the performance of these materials depending on the changes of the water mixture ratio and attempts to procure the optimal ratio on the basis of forming a provisionary standard.

Due to a lack of objective and adequate study on the physical effects on hydroponic polyurethane waterproofing material water mixture ratio, construction site workers are having to rely on their hands-on experience to determine a mixture ratio, resulting in difficulty of maintaining quality management. Particularly in cases of rooftop exposed type hydroponic polyurethane materials, the varying temperature conditions make it further difficult for quality management control. in this regard, this study conducts tensile strength testing and compares the tensility change rates hydroponic polyurethane waterproofing materials with various water mixture ratios ranging from 0%~50% and exposed to alternating temperature change between -20℃ to 60℃ in the span of 1 hour after curing for 14 days.

Waterproofing is a very important process in terms of durability of buildings. The materials used for waterproofing work to protect the concrete structure from external deterioration factors. In particular, the waterproofing materials applied to the exterior of the concrete structure have various problems due to changes in the external environment and variables in the construction process. The waterproof layer is repeatedly dried and shrunk according to changes in the external moisture environment, and the surface may be deteriorated due to exposure to long-term sunlight. In the case of the roof waterproofing in the structure, the waterproof layer which does not have a sufficient curing period shows much swelling and floating phenomenon. These defects, such as swelling and lifting, account for most of the defects that occur in the waterproof layer of the concrete slabs. Generally, it is difficult to expect the same level of performance as the initial state even if the waterproofing work is repaired when a defect occurs. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the defects of the waterproof layer such as swelling and lifting by forming a waterproof layer which can be integrated with the concrete surface by using a polyurethane type waterproofing material having a relatively low defective ratio compared to other waterproofing materials. So in this study, the basic properties of polyurethane waterproof sheet reinforced with non-woven fabric are investigated in order to understand field applicability.

Scientific methods that measure the physical demand requirements of a construction operation have not been arrived at maturity in construction community. It is attributed to the difficulty involved in performing controlled experiments on the operation and its' volatile jobsite environment. This paper presents a method that measures the physical demand requirement of the waterproofing activity and verifies the differences between various operations (e.g., a primer painting and a polyurethane coating) consisting of the activity. Two hypotheses, which are involved in the operations, are summarized as follows: [Hypothesis 1] when one performs the same amount of work; the one's average heart rate required for the polyurethane coating operation is higher than that required for the primer painting operation. [Hypothesis 2] when one performs the same amount of work, the one's break time required for the polyurethane coating operation is longer than that required for the primer painting operation.

To resolve these issues, a proposed method of using water-hardening type of polyurethane waterproofing materials are being developed. However, there currently lacks any standards or evaluation methods on determining an optimal mixture ratio of water for the water-hardening polyurethane waterproofing materials. Therefore, workers and construction workers are relying on their hands-on-skills and experience to determine this ratio and are not able to obtain a consistent performance quality out of these materials. Therefore, for the establishment of a board applicability of the water-hardening polyurethane waterproofing methods in construction sites, this study objectively analyzes the changes in the performance of these materials depending on the changes of the water mixture ratio and attempts to procure the optimal ratio on the basis of forming a provisionary standard. The study prepares mixtures of varying ratio(no water added, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40 and 50) and conducts comparative analysis respective mixtures' performances and their changes in the physical properties in an objective manner and proposes a provisional optimal value that can serve as a data base that can be used as a reference for future studies.

In the composite waterproofing method in which a polyurethane coating waterproofing material is applied on the modified asphalt waterproofing sheet, the organic solvent is diluted in the coating waterproofing material in order to improve the workability. However, since the organic solvent is not volatilized before the curing of the polyurethane coating waterproofing material, the organic solvent causes dissolution of asphalt layer, thereby causing oil leakage. As a result, a polyamide film having a high dissolution resistance property was laminated on modified asphalt sheet, and through testing the dissolution resistance was visually confirmed and quantitative analysis of the polyamide film by SEM-EDX analysis was also used to confirmed the dissolution resistance of the polyamide film.

This study is to analyze the cause of the defects in polyurethane waterproofing, a material commonly used on the roof of buildings, and to determine if it has a relation with the curing conditions of humidity and temperature and the moisture content of the base structure. As a result, it was confirmed that the waterproofing coating did not adhere when the moisture content of the base plate was 10% or more. When the temperature and humidity conditions were 20℃ and 80%RH, none of the properties deteriorate but when the temperature was 40℃, 60%RH, air bubbles were formed on the surface, and at 40℃ and 80%RH, the basic properties of the dry coating film were less than the KS F 3211 performance standard.
