Moisture intrusion, especially in basements, roofs, and underground structures, poses a direct risk to foundational stability. Water, when absorbed with impurities cause steel corrosion, which in turn expands and contracts with temperature changes, causing cracks and material breakdown. This R.C steel expansion process can erode the binding materials and create pathways for further water penetration, creating a cycle of deterioration. A robust waterproofing system halts this process, providing a protective barrier that keeps moisture out and reduces maintenance costs. Introducing VELOSIT WP 124 —a high-performance, flexible waterproofing slurry designed to safeguard your structure from water damage. Formulated to create an impermeable layer, offers both excellent adhesion and flexibility, adapting to surface movement and providing consistent protection over time. Whether applied to walls, foundations, or roofs, this two-part system ensures complete coverage and lasting protection, maintaining the structural integrity of any project. Start investing in the strength of VELOSIT WP 124. —choose a waterproofing solution that’s as resilient as your vision. Ready to fortify your structure?

Using foam board as a cover for a waterproof membrane before backfilling soil is a common practice in construction, especially for below-grade applications like basements or foundations. The foam board provides insulation and protection for the waterproof membrane against damage from the backfilled soil. It helps to prevent moisture infiltration and can also provide thermal insulation. Make sure the foam board is properly installed and sealed to ensure effectiveness in protecting the waterproof membrane.#topdownmethod#FTB#channaksam#engineer#basement#2024-3-26

Trafalgar’s FyreBOARD Maxilite is a highly versatile, lightweight fire rated board, with a wide array of applications in fire stopping systems. ✅ Treating large PVC pipework through oversized openings in floors is a challenge due to the sheer size of the opening and the effect that has on maintaining the integrity and insulation of fire barriers. Trafalgar’s Maxilite board paired with FyreCOLLARs can be retrofitted to tackle these tricky penetrations. 🔥 In the pre-test photo you can see the collar installed around the 150mm PVC pipe with FyreFLEX Intumescent sealant used to seal the gaps around the penetration. During the test, the intumescent in the FyreCOLLAR expanded to crush the PVC pipe as it melted, achieving a -/120/120 FRL!

Have you got a lift in your building? ↕️ Did you know that the pit below a lift is a common place for water to get in? 💦 This is because lift pits are basically small basements. Which means they need to be constructed and treated like one. (They're often forgotten about). To add an even more exciting layer to this issue, if water gets in and mixes with the oil from the lift, it's not possible to pump this out onto water courses. Tricky. 🤔🛢 Thankfully, at Crownstone, we've developed a revolutionary system that tackles lift pit waterproofing - PITSAFE. We've combined 3 types of waterproofing to create our innovative and effective solution: 🚫 Barrier 🛠️ Structural 💧 Drained Protection After all, 60% of your body is water, your lift pit shouldn't be!

Refurbishments can be costly undertakings if the existing roof build-up has to be removed and a new structure installed, so as not to put the stability at risk. With a low mass per unit area and full-surface adhesion, Triflex systems can be applied to old waterproofing systems. A protective layer is not necessary, since the material is highly resistant to both weather and chemicals. Triflex liquid-applied waterproofing is vapour-permeable, meaning that the structural properties of existing functional layers are not negatively affected. https://bit.ly/3tWiTqd
