System Bituline covers the modified
bituminous and their accessories together with their application
methods.
Bituline membranes are used for the waterproofing of flat and
low pitched roofs, terraces, wet surface flooring of underground
surfaces such as foundations, basement and pools or of
particular engineering such as multistory parkings or motorway
bridges.
Advantages:
* Bituline membranes, the fundamental element of waterproofing,
are manufactured of high quality bitumen modified with polymers
and reinforced with polyester or fiberglass of different
thicknesses and whenever required with various coatings on the
surface and therefore have a broad product range enabling the
selection of the most ideal material that fits best to a
particular application need.
* Thanks to the modified bitumen, insulation retains its
flexibility even under very low temperatures, free of any
cracks, while loosening rather late and thus maintaining its
form under high temperatures. This is why Bituline system may be
used safely under any climatic conditions.
* The fact that the Bituline membranes are manufactured using a
state-of-the art technology equipment at a factory environment,
ensures homogeneous waterproofing as well as integrity of
materials in terms of quality, which eliminates any insulation
risks due to difference in performance, as common with the
traditional systems implemented through application by laying of
product mixes prepared in site.
* The membranes are combined together by fusion welding and then
simply bonded onto the desired surface. This welding technique
makes waterproofing permanent. The waterproofing of the Bituline
system is also complete at joints.
* The reinforcement set into the membranes increases the tensile
strength and pressure resistance of the waterproofing. System
Bituline is thus available for use safely at such locations
where levels of exposure to mechanical stresses are considered
high, such as motorways ,bridges, road pavements, etc
* Available with granulated mineral or aluminum coated with a
wide range of colors at request, Bituline membrane is especially
ideal for use as a final coat waterproofing material, as they
are not affected from airborne particles of chemical and
biological nature and are resistant to UV beams, while providing
aeshetically attractive surfaces all times.
Bituline
Prima
Prima series membranes
The “prima” series consist of plastomeric membranes modified
with “Atactic Polpyropylene”(APP).Bituline Prima membranes are
in compliance with the cold and warm weather conditions of mild
climate zones, offering economic and reliable waterproofing
system with a wide spectrum for different types of buildings.
Bituline Extra
Extra
series membranes
The” extra” series consist of plastomeric membranes modified
with “Atactic Polypyropyleon”(APP).Extra series membranes having
increased their tensile strength with stronger polyester
reinforcement perform better at high and low temperatures
regions with extreme climatic conditions with its flexibility
and durability. EP410 is an especially formulated “heavy load”
membrane for use in the waterproofing of highways.
Bituline Maxima
Maxima series membranes
The :maxima” group contains elastomeric membranes modified with
“Styrene Butadiene Styrene”(SBS).Having the highest possible
flexibility even at lowest temperatures, Bituline Maxima
membranes are especially suitable for cold climates, and are
also ideal for “bundle” type foundation waterproofing against
underground water subject to pressure as well as for roof
subject to high vibrations or dilatation.
Bituline Aluminium
Aluminum foil coated membranes are used as the final layer
material like granulated types. Their technical specifications
are identical to Extra Group. (see: Technical specifications
sheet) On request Bituline Aluminum can be supplied also as an
elastomeric membrane.
Bituline Perfor
Bituline Perfor, loose laid on the substrate, provides the
partial attachment of the first Bituline layer to be torched on.
This application system allows the perfect distribution of
vapour coming out of the building, avoiding any possible
problems of bubbling and blistering.
Application
Guidelines
The rolls should be handled and stored in vertically upward
position. If the use of materials in cold weather is desired,
they should be stored at standard room temperature for 24 hours
before application, in order to render workmanship easy and
sound. No applications should be made under cold weather
conditions where the temperature tends to fall below +5ºC.
The application of Bituline in two layers, the sublayer being
reinforced with fiberglass and the second layer with polyester
is considered to be a good practice, when waterproofing is to be
made on flat roofs with inclinations up to 5%. The selection of
the type and thickness of the membrane to be applied will depend
on the characteristics of the type or mode of utilization of the
building and to the climatic conditions prevailing in the area.
Excessive care should be taken to ensure that application
surface on which the membrane is to adhere is clean and dry at
time of application, and a single layer of undercoat Bituline
primer should be applied to the surface to ensure a good
retention. In full adhesion technique, all the surfaces along
which the upper membrane layer contacts with the ground or with
the sublayer membrane are treated with fusion welding technique
using a welding torch.
When
Bituline Perfor is used, the membrane shall facilitate an ideal
vapor distribution as it will adhere onto the ground on a
pointwise basis. However, Bituline Perfor should be laid
avoiding any material overlaps and should never be adhered to
the application surface at a prior time. The fusion weld should
be applied to the first membrane layer coming over and
appropriate measures should be taken to ensure that the bitumen
melt due to fusion adheres to the surface perfectly after
passing through the holes of Bituline Perfor.
Bituline rolls should be aligned so that they overlap one
another by 10cm both at length and width. Wile overlapping
mineral coated membranes at length, the granules must be
scrapped off completely, followed by their heating using the
welding torch and embedding them into the membrane, to produce
an overlapping length of 15cm.
Rows of membrane should be formed perpendicular to the direction
of slope in all layers, while care is taken to avoid
intersection or overlapping of joints to the extent possible,
employing the deviation technique.
At terrace type open roofs insulated with the conventional
system, the heat insulation layer is placed under the
waterproofing layer, wher there is a wide variety of options to
use for this purpose, including glass wool or rock wool with a
minimum density of 150kg per cubic meter and extruded or
expanded polystyrene foams( XPS or ESP) with a minimum density
of 30kg per cubic meter.

In inverted roofing system, there is no need for using of a
vapor barrier, as the heat insulation layer stands above the
waterproofing. On the other hand, heat insulation should be
absolutely provided by employing a waterproof material(i.e.XPS),
and considerations should be given to the fact that a certain
amount of heat loss would occur due to the passage of rain
waters discharged
underneath the heat insulation layer.

For waterproofing of light metallic roof system commonly used on
reinforced concrete, heavy
prefabricated or steel system, the sublayer membrane is fixed
onto the roof panel applying mechanical means. A membrane layer
coated with granulated mineral is employed as the second
layer. Here, as a widely flexible, moving roof system is in
concern, it is essential that membranes with high elastomeric
characteristics should be preferred.

It is normally essential for waterproofing made against
pressurized ground waters that the target structure should have
a mat foundation system where the insulating layer passes
beneath the
foundation and extends up to a maximum 20cm above the ground
level as a single piece layer on screening walls. It is also
very important that the waterproofing should be protected
against piercing once it is completed.
