Abstract
A water stopping configuration of linear members, includes a liquid water stopping material which is cured after the liquid water stopping material is penetrated into interstices between the linear members bundled together. The water stopping material is a magnetic fluid. The water stopping material is cured in a condition that a magnetic field is applied to the water stopping material from the outside of a covering member which covers an outer periphery of bundled portions of the linear members having the water stopping material penetrated therein so as to gather the water stopping material at a predetermined portion within the covering member.

A water stopping configuration of linear members, comprising:
- a liquid water stopping material which is cured after the liquid water stopping material is penetrated into interstices between the linear members bundled together,
- wherein the water stopping material is a magnetic fluid;
- and
- wherein the water stopping material is cured in a condition that a magnetic field is applied to the water stopping material from an outside of a covering member which covers an outer periphery of bundled portions of the linear members having the water stopping material penetrated therein so as to gather the water stopping material at a predetermined portion within the covering member.
A method of water stopping linear members, comprising:
- penetrating a liquid water stopping material into interstices between the linear members bundled together, wherein the water stopping material is a magnetic fluid;
- applying a magnetic field to the water stopping material by a magnet from an outside of a covering member which covers an outer periphery of bundle portions of the linear members having the water stopping material penetrated therein so as to gather the water stopping material at a predetermined portion within the covering member;
- and
- curing the water stopping material in a condition that the magnetic field is applied to the water stopping material by the magnet.
