How should I achieve this? How should I choose professional waterproofing contractors? How should I resolve leakage issues?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Answer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. This is the biggest shortcoming in the minds of those who have been engaged in professional waterproofing for a long time! In China, there is no comprehensive textbook on waterproofing in civil engineering departments at universities; there are no professional courses on waterproofing in classrooms (at most, there are a few practical courses with a few hours of instruction, but because teachers have not been trained in professional waterproofing, plus a lack of practical experience, most of them simply do things superficially); even though they are highly respected professionals such as architects and construction engineers, they are unwilling to spend the time and effort to conduct in-depth professional research on waterproofing; all their knowledge of waterproofing comes from the information provided by some waterproofing materials manufacturers and the accumulated experience of water leakage encountered on the actual construction site. Basically, they only know the general aspects of waterproofing, not the whole picture; it is no wonder that the standards they design and implement only know the general aspects and lack the basic functions of suitable materials and suitable places; and they are far from matching the actual operation on the construction site! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently in China, the improvement in the quality of waterproofing engineering technology is taking place amidst the following circumstances: \u201cEveryone is willing,\u201d \u201cintegration is difficult,\u201d and \u201cimplementation is lacking.\u201d Coupled with the vicious market competition, the virtuous market mechanism is distorted, and the bad currency drives out the good currency, resulting in the current building leakage rate reaching up to eighty to ninety percent; by contrast, in Japan, due to the government\u2019s emphasis and the awakening of private consumer awareness, the waterproofing skill certification system has been implemented for more than thirty years, and the long-term waterproofing warranty system has been established (not only with mandatory legal regulations and the collateral warranty of insurance companies, but also with the establishment of a legal framework for the building leakage rate to be as low as 10%); when compared, this is truly embarrassing (even China has caught up; there is even a waterproofing engineering department established at a university in Hubei!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, the Taiwan Building Waterproofing Technology Promotion Association (WTA), with the active promotion of a group of dedicated scholars, experts, and waterproofing construction professionals, was officially established in January 1987, and translated the Japanese textbook \"Waterproofing Construction Code\" into a book, which is designated as the national exam textbook of the Japanese waterproofing skills certification system; in cooperation with the Ministry of Interior's Research and Development Institute, they published \"Waterproofing Design Manual\", which can be said to have established a complete system of waterproofing textbooks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. After many years of efforts by the WTA Waterproofing Association, Article 8 of the \u201cConstruction Industry Act\u201d passed by the Legislative Yuan in 1991 explicitly stipulates that waterproofing is one of the specific construction projects of the construction industry, and Article 33 stipulates that waterproofing must be carried out by a certain number of technical engineers at the construction site; starting in 1993, the WTA began to accept the Labor Commission\u2019s commission to administer the national examination for \u201cConstruction Waterproofing Technician\u201d certification; over the past 10 years, more than two thousand construction workers have obtained the certification as a \u201cConstruction Waterproofing Technician\u201d! It is believed that in another 20 years, we should be able to achieve the same level as advanced countries such as Japan and Germany\u2014where construction must be carried out by people with certification in waterproofing engineering. The quality of construction waterproofing in China should be improved through this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Through years of efforts by the WTA Waterproof Association, domestic water leakage disputes (including disputes between builders and homeowners, disputes between homeowners and waterproofing contractors, and disputes between residents of the same building) have almost all been resolved through court proceedings. The WTA Waterproof Association is entrusted with the water leakage assessment in these cases, and disputes are extremely rare. Its fee standard is significantly lower than that of the Architects\u2019 Association or the Civil Engineers\u2019 Association, and its professionalism and impartiality have already earned it a gold plaque of fairness in the courts across the country.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u7b54\uff1a 1\u3001\u9019\u500b\u554f\u984c\u662f\u9577\u671f\u4ee5\u4f86\u5f9e\u4e8b\u5c08\u696d\u9632\u6c34\u5de5\u7a0b\u7232\u8077\u5fd7\u7684\u4eba\u5fc3\u4e2d\u6700\u5927\u7684\u7f3a\u61be\uff01\u5728\u570b\u5167\uff0c\u5927\u5c08\u571f\u6728\u5efa\u7bc9\u79d1\u7cfb\u4e26\u7121\u5b8c\u6574\u4e4b\u9632\u6c34\u5c08 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-100qa"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8946","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8946"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8946\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daisin.com.tw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
