07 Assessment
Advantages
- Permanent waterproofing solution - lifetime of concrete
- Self-healing capability for cracks up to 0.4mm
- Resists extreme hydrostatic pressure (positive/negative)
- Becomes integral part of concrete structure
- NSF 61 approved for potable water contact
- Breathable - allows vapour transmission
- Chemical resistant to pH 3-11
- No surface preparation for negative side application
- Increases concrete durability and lifespan
- Non-toxic and environmentally safe
Constraints
- Requires saturated surface dry (SSD) substrate
- Cannot bridge structural cracks >0.4mm
- Minimum 7-day concrete cure before application
- Temperature sensitive during application (5-35°C)
- Requires protection from rain for 24-48 hours
- Professional application recommended
- Not suitable for non-cementitious substrates
- May show efflorescence initially
- Requires CSP-4 surface profile for optimal performance
