Waterproofing Concrete
Using Liquid Membranes
Liquid Applied Membranes (LAMs) are well suited for remedial concrete repairs.
Liquid Rubber provides a robust waterproofing barrier:
dues to these properties: membrane due its watertight integrity, fully bonded adhesiveness and self healing characteristics.
- Robust Adhesion
- Watertight Integrity
- Self Healing Characteristics
- Seamless - Bridges Cracks, Joins & Seams
- Flexibility - Moves with Substrate
Case Study - Liquid Membranes
Waterproofing Basement & Retaining Walls
Waterproofing Concrete Slab
- A concrete slab had been constructed over an underground electronic control room.
- Landscaping was then installed over the control room as this is a public access area.
- The electronic control room experienced water leaks - the original waterproof membrane, which was placed between concrete slabs, was defective.
- The self adhesive sheet membrane demonstrated de lamination at joins and also at turn up sections.
Installing Waterproof Membrane
- The area was dug out above the water leak and the original defective membrane exposed.
- The damaged membrane was removed and area high-pressure power washed thoroughly to remove loose debris.
- Liquid Rubber Waterproofing was spray applied to the clean surface creating an impervious waterproofing membrane.
- Consisting of elastomeric polymers with adhesives, Liquid Rubber absorbs movement, has extreme flexibility and conforms to any shape.
Liquid Rubber - Concrete Repairs & Protection
- No solvents means no on-site cure failures and no VOC restrictions.
- No solvents means suitable for application in confined spaces.
- Conforms to all surface irregularities, fully bonds to substrate.
- Completely monolithic, no seams !
- Ability to self-heal and bridge cracks in concrete substrate.
- Ideal for dead level installations, no slope required.
- Can be applied to damp surfaces.
