Specify liquid waterproofing brand neutral

“Apply liquid waterproofing” is too broad for a verifiable offer. A strong request makes it clear which preparation, system layers, details and documentation belong in the scope.
01

Six parts of a complete inquiry

A system must be assessed as a coherent structure. Primer, membrane, possible reinforcement, protective layer and connection to other materials together form the performance.

  • Use function and exposure
  • Permitted surfaces and preparation
  • Minimum dry film thickness or consumption
  • Detail principles and bilges
  • Protection during subsequent construction
  • Acceptance criteria and file
02

Measurable subsurface conditions

Include limit values and measurement methods for moisture, cohesion, flatness and contamination. Also write down who measures, when release takes place and how deviations are handled.

03

Equivalent is demonstrably equivalent

An alternative is only comparable if the same performance, system components, processing conditions and supporting documents are offered. Merely comparing on kilograms or price per square meter is insufficient.

PROJECTCHECK

Five points to determine in advance.

  1. 01Function and exposure described
  2. 02Complete system structure requested
  3. 03Detailed drawings available
  4. 04Surface clearance assigned
  5. 05Test area and inspection plan determined

Frequently asked questions

Short and technical answers.

Does cutlery have to mention a brand?

Not necessary. Performance requirements and project conditions provide scope for a suitable solution and make alternatives more comparable.

Is layer thickness alone sufficient?

No. Adhesion, substrate, detailing, consumption, curing and protection are also decisive.

TECHNISCH AUTEURSCHAP

PolyShield technisch redactieteam

Samengesteld vanuit uitvoeringspraktijk, systeemdocumentatie en projectmatige kwaliteitscontrole. De inhoud is merkneutraal en bedoeld voor professionele voorselectie.

BRONNENKADER

Bij een projectspecifieke keuze zijn actuele TDS, SDS, DoP, classificaties, ondergrondmetingen en toepasselijke systeemverklaringen altijd leidend. Claims voor een losse component gelden niet automatisch voor de volledige opbouw.
