Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for identifying repaired tiles for identifying repaired tiles.

Background Art

[0002] Buildings such as condominiums and high-rise buildings are tiled in order to keep their appearance elegant or to protect the structure. Due to aging, the mortar that attaches these tiles, called tile lifting, deteriorates, and the tiles may become detached from the structure.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to find the part where so-called tile lifting has occurred. In order to find the part where tile lifting has occurred, a so-called tapping inspection is performed by tapping the tile and judging whether it is tile lifting or not by the sound.

[0004] As a method of performing such a tapping inspection to judge whether it is tile lifting or not, for example, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2020-153938, "A method for diagnosing deterioration of tiles that are arranged side by side on the surface of a building structure and constitute the wall surface of the building, the method comprising: a tapping step of tapping the surface of a part of the plurality of tiles for a predetermined time using a tapping inspection device; a recording step of recording the tapping sound obtained in the tapping step; and a deterioration rate calculation step of calculating the deterioration rate of the tiles by calculating the ratio between the generation time of the tapping sound of the normal part indicating that the tile is not deteriorated and the generation time of the tapping sound of the abnormal part indicating that the tile is deteriorated during a predetermined analysis time of the tapping sound recorded in the recording step." is disclosed.

[0005] On the other hand, in recent years, in order to repair the part where tile lifting has occurred, an organic adhesive is used to replace the tiles in the part where tile lifting has occurred. When tiles are replaced using this organic adhesive, it can be said that it is rich in adhesive force and elasticity and is very excellent against aging deterioration.

[0006] In such cases, tiles that have already been repaired using organic adhesives and tiles that have not been repaired and are attached with conventional mortar will be mixed together. In this case, when the time comes to carry out repair work again after a predetermined period has passed, a so-called tapping test is performed to find areas where tiles have become loose again, by tapping the tiles and judging from the sound whether they are loose or deteriorated.

[0007] In this case, the diagnostic method described above may not be able to distinguish between tiles that are loose and tiles that are not deteriorated but have been replaced using organic adhesive, because the sounds are similar. Therefore, we found that tiles replaced using organic adhesive rarely loosen, and that efficiency can be improved by identifying tiles replaced with organic adhesive in advance and performing a tapping test only on tiles that have not been repaired in the previous test.

[0008] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2020-153938 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0009] This invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its objective is to provide a repair tile identification method that uses an organic adhesive to distinguish between replaced tiles and tiles that were previously attached with mortar. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] To solve the aforementioned problems, the first method for identifying repaired tiles involves marking the joint adjacent to the tile repaired with an organic adhesive to distinguish between the tile repaired with an organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached. The mark is used to distinguish between the tile repaired with an organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached.

[0011] To solve the aforementioned problems, the second method for identifying repaired tiles involves marking the joint adjacent to the tile repaired with organic adhesive in order to distinguish between the tile repaired with organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached. The mark is then used to distinguish between the tile repaired with organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached.

[0012] To solve the aforementioned problems, the third method for identifying repaired tiles involves marking the joint adjacent to the tile repaired with organic adhesive with an L-shaped mark, thereby distinguishing between the tile repaired with organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached, in order to differentiate between the tile repaired with organic adhesive and the tile that was originally attached.

[0013] To solve the aforementioned problems, the fourth method for identifying repair tiles involves marking the upper right grout of the rectangular tiles repaired with organic adhesive with an L-shaped mark, thereby distinguishing between tiles repaired with organic adhesive and tiles that were originally installed.

[0014] To solve the aforementioned problems, the fifth method for identifying repair tiles is that, from the first to the fourth perspectives, the tiles that have been conventionally attached are attached using mortar. [Effects of the Invention]

[0015] As the present invention is configured and operates as described above, it is possible to provide a repair tile identification method that uses an organic adhesive to identify replaced tiles. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0016] [Figure 1] A is a conceptual diagram showing a state where some tiles are peeling off a wall that is otherwise tiled. B is a conceptual cross-sectional view of A along the IB-IB line. [Figure 2] This is a conceptual diagram showing a wall with tiles that have come loose and been repaired by reattaching them. [Figure 3] A is a conceptual diagram showing a state where tiles are attached to a wall, and some tiles are starting to come loose. B is a conceptual cross-sectional view of A along the line IIIB-IIIB. [Figure 4] This is a conceptual diagram showing a situation where loose tiles have been repaired by reattaching them to a wall where tiles are already attached. [Figure 5] A is a conceptual diagram showing a state where tiles are attached to a wall, and yet another tile is starting to come loose. B is a conceptual cross-section diagram of A along the VB-VB line. [Figure 6] This is a conceptual diagram showing a situation where a loose tile has been repaired by attaching another tile to a wall that is already tiled.

[0017] Before describing the repair tile identification method in this embodiment, we will explain the work performed in repair work on condominiums and high-rise buildings. We will distinguish between tiles 20a that have deteriorated due to the mortar used in condominiums and high-rise buildings, resulting in so-called tile delamination, and tiles 20 that have not experienced tile delamination. When tiles 20 are attached using mortar, the sound produced when tapping tiles 20a that have experienced tile delamination and tiles 20 that have not experienced tile delamination will be different, so they can be easily distinguished by tapping tests.

[0018] By performing a tapping sound inspection, it is possible to distinguish between a tile 20a with tile lifting that occurred when the tile 20 was conventionally pasted using mortar and a conventional tile 20 without tile lifting, as described later (see Fig. 1). When removing the tile 20a with tile lifting, check the base. If cracks are present, repair them. For example, cracks may occur around the opening such as a door, and waterproofing treatment is performed on the base at the crack location.

[0019] Next, remove the tile 20a with tile lifting identified by the tapping sound inspection and paste a new tile 31 using an organic adhesive. For example, as the organic adhesive, an organic base adjustment coating material is preferable, and a one-component knitted silicone resin-based adhesive is preferable.

[0020] Next, put a mark 50 on the joint 41 adjacent to the newly pasted tile 31 using an organic adhesive. Specifically, for the mark 50, it is preferable to engrave a mark 51 in the shape of an L at any of the four corners of the rectangular tile 30, for example. In this case, since the engraving is only pressed while the joint 41 is drying, the cost is less. Note that the mark 50 is not limited to the L-shaped engraving.

[0021] In this case, for example, in the first repair work, put the mark 51 in the mark 50 in the shape of an L on the joint 41 at the upper left of the newly pasted tile 31 using an organic adhesive. Note that there may be cases where marks are not put on the conventional tiles 20 without tile lifting as a result of the tapping sound inspection (see Fig. 2).

[0022] Next, the method for identifying repaired tiles in this embodiment will be described. For example, when a predetermined period has elapsed since the first repair work, repair work may be carried out again (for example, the second repair work). For example, an L-shaped engraved mark 51 is attached to the joint 41 at the upper left corner of the new tile 31 pasted using an organic adhesive in the first repair work. Therefore, for example, only the tiles 20 where no tile lifting occurred in the first repair work are re-inspected by the tapping sound inspection, and the tapping sound inspection of the tile 31 with the L-shaped engraved mark 51 attached to the joint 41 at the upper left corner of the new tile 31 pasted using an organic adhesive can be omitted. That is, since the tile 31 pasted using an organic adhesive is resistant to aging deterioration and has a low possibility of tile lifting, the tapping sound inspection can be omitted.

[0023] As a result of performing the tapping sound inspection only on the conventional tiles 20 where no tile lifting has occurred, other tiles 20b where new tile lifting has occurred can be discovered (see FIG. 3). When removing other tiles 20b where tile lifting has occurred, check the base. If cracks are present, repair them. For example, cracks may occur around the opening such as a door, and waterproofing treatment of the base at the cracked part is as described above.

[0024] Remove other tiles 20b where tile lifting has occurred, which have been identified by the tapping sound inspection, and paste new tiles 32 using an organic adhesive.

[0025] Next, a mark 50 is placed in the joint 42 adjacent to the new tile 32 that has been attached using an organic adhesive. Specifically, it is preferable to engrave an L-shaped mark 52 in one of the four corners of a rectangular tile 30. Since the engraving is only done while the joint 42 is drying, the cost is not high. In this case, the L-shaped mark 52 is placed in the upper right joint 42 of the new tile 32 that has been attached using an organic adhesive in the second repair work. Note that marks may not be placed on the existing tiles 20 that have not been found to be loose based on the tapping test (see Figure 4).

[0026] Next, for example, after a predetermined period has elapsed since the second repair work, further repair work (for example, the third repair work) may be carried out. L-shaped markings 51 and 52 are placed on the upper left and upper right joints 41 and 42 of the new tiles 31 and 32 that were attached using organic adhesive. Therefore, a tapping test can be performed only on the tiles 20 that did not experience tile lifting in the previous test and did not have the L-shaped markings 51 and 52, and the tapping test can be omitted for the tiles 31 and 32 that have the L-shaped markings 51 and 52 on the upper left and upper right joints 41 and 42.

[0027] By performing a tapping test only on tiles 20 that had not previously shown any signs of tile delamination, it was possible to discover another tile 20C that had newly developed tile delamination (see Figure 5). The same applies when cracks are present.

[0028] Another tile 20C, which was identified as having become loose by a tapping test, is removed, and a new tile 33 is attached using an organic adhesive.

[0029] Next, a mark 53 is placed in the joint adjacent to the new tile 33 that was attached using an organic adhesive. In this case, an L-shaped mark 53 is placed in the joint 43 on the lower left of the new tile 33 that was attached using an organic adhesive during the third repair work. Note that no mark 50 is placed on the original tile 20 that is not loose (see Figure 6).

[0030] Furthermore, during the fourth repair work, an L-shaped mark 54 is placed on the lower right joint 44 of the new tile 34 that was attached using an organic adhesive. By adding L-shaped marks 51, 52, 53, and 54 to the joints 41, 42, 43, and 44 respectively, it is possible to visually distinguish between the new tiles 31, 32, 33, and 34 attached using an organic adhesive and the conventional tiles 20 attached using mortar. In the repair work, these new tiles 31, 32, 33, and 34 can be treated as outside the scope of the tapping inspection and tile replacement work (see Figure 6).

[0031] In the process described above, we explained how to identify a new tile that has been attached using an organic adhesive when one tile is loose. However, when multiple tiles are loose, and you want to identify multiple new tiles that have been attached using an organic adhesive, you can also identify the multiple new tiles that have been attached using an organic adhesive by engraving a mark in the grout surrounding those multiple tiles, i.e., a group of tiles (not shown).

[0032] Thus, in order to identify a new tile attached using an organic adhesive, markings 50 (51, 52, 53, 54) can be added to the joints 41, 42, 43, 44 adjacent to that tile. For example, if the markings 50 (51, 52, 53, 54) are engraved while the joints 41, 42, 43, 44 are drying, this can be done easily and without unnecessarily increasing costs. Furthermore, since the markings 50 (51, 52, 53, 54) can be visually confirmed at the construction site, it is easy to distinguish between the new tiles 31, 32, 33, 34 attached using an organic adhesive and the conventional tiles 20 attached using mortar.
