What is a Waterstop?
A waterstop is an effective waterproofing solution that prevents water from seeping through construction joints and expansion joints in buildings. It is an essential material used in basement construction, reservoirs, water tanks, and various other structures. Definition of Waterstop A waterstop is a waterproofing product made from high-durability PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). It is placed in expansion joints and construction joints of concrete structures to block water infiltration at these points, protecting the structure from moisture and chemical exposure. Features & Advantages of PVC Waterstop PVC waterstops are made from 100% virgin PVC material, offering several outstanding benefits: High durability –...
Process and Important Considerations for Basement Construction
Unlike houses with gardens or yards, urban homes often face space limitations, making it challenging to design functional parking or storage areas. To address this issue, basement construction in townhouses has become a practical solution for maximizing space. Depending on the functional requirements of the homeowner, the basement can be built at different depths. However, constructing a basement is one of the most complex, time-consuming, and expensive stages of building a house. Let’s explore the construction process and key considerations with Cát Mộc. Basement Construction Process Site preparation, including demolition of any existing structures (if applicable). Driving reinforced concrete...
What Are the Red Line Boundary and the Building Line?
When planning to build, buy, or renovate a house, it is essential to understand construction regulations, including the red line boundary, building line, and setback requirements. Let’s explore these concepts with Cát Mộc. What is the Red Line Boundary? The red line boundary is a boundary line defined on planning maps and in the field to separate the land designated for construction from the land allocated for roads, infrastructure, or public spaces. In urban areas, the road boundary often coincides with the red line boundary, encompassing the roadway, sidewalks, and curbs. What is the Building Line? The building line is...
Construction of Foundation Reinforcement & Tie Beams
The foundation, or building footing, is a structural component located at the lowest part of a construction project. It plays a crucial role in directly transferring the load of the structure to the ground, ensuring the building’s stability and its ability to withstand the pressure from multiple floors. The foundation is one of the most critical elements to consider when constructing a house or any other structure, as it determines the strength, durability, and stability of the entire project. Foundation Reinforcement Construction Townhouses are a common type of residential building found in cities and urban areas where population density is...
Surveying Work in Construction
Surveying is an indispensable part of the construction process, determining the accuracy and quality of a project. So what role does construction surveying play, and what are its requirements? Let’s find out! What is Surveying Work? Surveying is the process of measuring, determining positions, elevations, and technical parameters of a construction project before, during, and after execution. This process ensures that all components are built in the correct location according to the design drawings, preventing misalignment that could affect the quality of the project. The Role of Surveying in Construction Surveying is present in almost all construction projects, from residential...
Positioning & Pile Driving Work
One of the most crucial tasks in the construction process is positioning the foundation and column axes. Proper alignment ensures that the structure conforms accurately to the design drawings, standardizing all elements along the reference axes. Given the importance of these factors, understanding the methods for determining foundation and column axes during construction is essential. Precise pile positioning ensures correct pile driving, minimizing errors during foundation construction. Any misalignment of piles not only affects the aesthetic quality of the foundation but, more importantly, reduces its load-bearing capacity if the piles are not correctly placed under the columns. Let’s explore this...
