Les étanchéités multicouches installées par temps froid sont susceptibles à ce type de problème du fait que la baisse rapide de la température de l'asphalte entraîne souvent des surépaisseurs d'asphalte entre les feutres et une mauvaise adhérence de la membrane à son support. Les plissements se manifesteront alors au printemps lorsque les températures de l'étanchéité atteignent ou dépassent le point de ramollissement de l'asphalte. Des essais en laboratoire sur une membrane qui s'était plissée vis-à-vis chaque joint du support d'isolant ont montré que la quantité moyenne d'asphalte était de l'ordre de 1,75 kg/m². 4, record 2, French, - bombement
