Abstract

A damp-proof member 1 comprises two superimposed sheets 2 of damp-proof course material which is mouldable such as bituminous polymeric material, pitch- filled polymeric material, p.v.c. or the like. The two sheets 2 are joined together as by high-frequency welding at 3 and each sheet 2 also has crease lines 4 and 5 transverse to the weld line 3, the crease lines 4 being formed in one direction and the crease lines 5 in the opposite direction. This ensures that the bridging member 1 can be folded to a desired configuration about the crease lines 4 and 5, The sheets 2 are only secured together at the weld line, so on either side thereof there are two overlying "flaps" forming sleeves 6. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Bridging member The invention relates to a bridging member.
According to the invention there is provided a bridging member for bridging between two damp-proof members or between a damp proof member and an abutment comprising a sleeve into which a free end of a damp-proof member can be inserted.
There may be two sleeves.
The member may be creased, to provide for the assuming by the member of the configuration of the damp-proof members in use, for example Z-shape.
A bridging member embodying the invention is hereinafter described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the member according to the invention; Figure 2 is an end elevational view of the member in one configuration; Figure 3 is an end elevational view of the member in a second configuration; and Figures 4-7 show transverse sectional views of the member according to the invention bridging between two damp-proof members.
The damp-proof member 1 comprises two superimposed sheets 2 of damp-proof course material which is mouldable such as bituminous polymeric material, pitch-filled polymeric material, p.v.c. or the like. The two sheets 2 are joined together as by high-frequency welding at 3 and each sheet 2 also has crease lines 4 and 5 transverse to the weld line 3, the crease lines 4 being formed in one direction and the crease lines 5 in the opposite direction. This ensures that the bridging member 1 can be foided to a desired configuration about the crease lines 4 and 5, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. The sheets 2 are only secured together at the weld line, so on either side thereof there are two overlying "flaps" forming sleeves 6.
In use to bridge a gap between two dampproof courses 7 and 8 which bridge a cavity in a cavity wall and take up a desired configuration such as of Z-shape, the facing ends of the two members 7 and 8 are offered up to and inserted into the respective sleeves 6, so forming a continuous bridge between the members and across the cavity.
In Fig. 4, the ends of the members 7 and 8 are pushed into the sleeves 6 "dry", that is without the need to use an adhesive.
Figs. 5 and 6 show the use of an optional adhesive or non-setting mastic bead 9, while Fig. 7 shows use of a seal 10 such as a cellular foam seal (or impregnated non-cellular foam), or from H.F. weldable or non-weldable materials.
The bridging member 1 may be formed in one moulding/welding operation by superimposing the two sheets 2 and inserting in a high frequency welding press to form the weld line 3 and crease lines 4 and 5 simultaneously. To ensure that the sheets 2 are not secured together at the crease lines 4 and 5, a release agent is incorporated between the sheets. This could be an integral surface coating on the sheets, or can be a separate release agent sheet, for example of silicone rubber.
The member 1 can be used to "finish off" a run of d.p.c. at an abutment such as an end wall, or to connect a d.p.c. with a cavity tray, which could be integral with the member.
1. A bridging member for bridging between two damp-proof members or between a damp-proof member and an abutment comprising a sleeve into which a free end of a damp-proof member can be inserted.
2. A bridging member according to Claim 1, in which there are two sleeves.
3. A bridging member according to Claim 2, in which the member is creased, to provide for the assuming by the member of the configuration of the damp-proof members in use.
4. A bridging member according to Claim 2 or Claim 3, the sleeve(s) being formed by the superposition of two sheets of mouldable material which are secured together at one position.
5. A bridging member, according to Claim 4, the position comprising a weld.
6. A bridging member according to Claim 5, the member being creased by crease lines transverse to the weld.
7. A bridging member according to Claim 6, including adhesive between the sheets.
8. A bridging member substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
9. A damp-proof course including a bridging member according to any preceding claim.
