  I am an ordinary foreign trade salesperson specializing in rubber waterstop . There are countless stories to share from my experiences in the foreign trade business! Allow me to recount a particularly interesting encounter with a discerning customer. Once, our company received an order from abroad, and the client turned out to be exceptionally particular. From product color to packaging, every detail was subject to stringent scrutiny. At that moment, I thought to myself, this will not be easy!

  PVC waterstop   is mainly used for foundation engineering that is integrated with concrete and installed in construction joints and deformation joints during concrete pouring. Such as tunnels, culverts, water diversion aqueducts, water retaining dams, liquid storage structures, underground facilities, etc. The construction method of PVC waterstop is the same as that of ordinary  rubber waterstop .  When pouring and burying, it is necessary to make the interface between it and the concrete flat, and the joint part should be firmly bonded.  During the pouring and burying process, the concrete should be fully vibrated with appropriate force to ensure good bonding with the concrete and achieve the ideal waterproof effect. Attention should be paid to some issues during the construction of PVC waterstops.  Due to the presence of many sharp stones and steel bars in concrete, it is important to avoid mechanical damage to the waterstop during operation.  When...

  Construction preparation Check whether the specification, model and quantity of LRB  lead rubber bearing  meet the design requirements, and whether the appearance has defects such as damage and deformation. Prepare tools and equipment required for installation, such as crane, jack, wrench, level gauge, etc. Clean the top surface of the bridge pier and abutment to ensure that it is flat, clean and free of oil stain, debris, etc. LRB lead rubber bearing installation Lift the LRB lead rubber beam slowly to the installation position on the top surface of the pier and abutment with the crane. During hoisting, it shall be kept stable to avoid collision with pier and other objects. The position and elevation of LRB lead rubber beam shall be adjusted so that the center position overlaps with the design position and the top elevation meets the design requirements. Jacks, spirit levels and other tools can be used for adjustment. When the position and elevation of LRB lead rubber ...

Pultruded fiberglass grating and molded fiberglass grating are two common types of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) products, which have significant differences in production process and performance Manufacturing process: Pultruded fiberglass grating: Using pre manufactured  fiberglass profiles , a grid structure is formed through assembly and connection. Molded fiberglass grating: Mix resin and glass fiber and place them in a mold for high-temperature and high-pressure treatment to shape them. Two types of grilles Appearance and surface texture: Pultruded fiberglass grating: Due to the use of profile assembly, the surface can be divided into flat, sandblasted surfaces, grids, and porosity that are flexible and adjustable. Laying sand fiberglass extruded grating The molded fiberglass grating has the following surfaces: Flat surface: The surface is flat without any additional textures or patterns. Concave surface: The surface has a concave texture, which can increase the a...

Cut fiberglass grating only after completing its entire production. Manual cutting requires the cutting staff to control the machine. Large cutting machines have small errors and need fixing before cutting. When cutting, the installation size should be 2mm-5mm smaller than the customer's requirements. This allows space for the grille panel. Grind the fiberglass grating flat The picture shows the staff grinding down the fiberglass grating 1) Tool selection Linear cutting: You can cut fiberglass grating on-site with mechanical methods. Use ceramic or diamond disc cutters. Ordinary steel saw blades can cut it, but they are not recommended. Curve cutting: Use electric or steel saws with metal cutting blades to cut grids, arcs, and curves. The picture shows a portable cutting machine: Handheld cutting machine Polishing: Use handheld angle grinders, grinding machines, files, or sandpaper. Drilling: Drill holes over 12mm with Fried Dough Twists drills. Use portable electric hole machines...
