WD-08 · WATERPROOFING PER BUILDING PART

PolyShield Waterproofing

Waterproofing of civil concrete structures

Fast specialist membranes linked to construction, load and demonstrable system documentation.

Technical context

First recognize the building part and the load.

Civil constructions require more than a generic coating. Water pressure, traffic, chlorides, chemical load, joints and connecting layers together determine the system choice.

Problem · cause · solution

From visible defect to substantiated system route.

01 / VISIBLE

Common problems

  • Water penetration into concrete structures
  • Leaking joints and pouring joints
  • Chloride and frost load
  • Short outage
  • Connection to asphalt, concrete or protective layers
02 / INVESTIGATIONS

Possible causes

  • Cracks and pores in concrete
  • Insufficient detail sealing
  • Damaged existing membrane
  • High water or traffic loads
  • Incompatible connecting materials
03 / RESOLVED

Complete system choice

Substrate, primer, details, membrane, protection and evidence are recorded as one project-specific structure.

Business added value

What the right waterproofing protects or saves.

01

Short execution windows

Fast primers and membranes can limit downtime when the substrate allows it.

02

Strong detailing

Complex transitions and geometry are seamlessly incorporated into the membrane.

03

Auditable file

Preparation, conditions, consumption and layer build-up are recorded project-specifically.

System selection

Primarily promising, then technically confirmed.

The maps show a system direction. The final variant results from inspection, test adhesion and current technical documentation.

SUITABLE SUBSTRATES
  • Structural concrete
  • Cement-based repair mortar
  • Steel in combined details
TECHNICAL CHECK FIRST
  • Define tax and standard framework in advance
  • Assess structural cracks by a specialist
  • Measurably record adhesion and moisture
  • Only use system claims that belong to the tested structure
NOT AS A STANDARD ROUTE
  • Enclose wet or insufficiently load-bearing surfaces
  • Unknown layers without compatibility check
  • Only cover structural defects with coating
  • Performance claims without appropriate system documentation

From recording to delivery

Four steps that make the system controllable.

  1. 01

    Technical framework

    Construction, water, traffic, chemistry and normative requirements are determined.

  2. 02

    Taste and preparation

    Substrate strength, moisture, adhesion and repairs are validated.

  3. 03

    System application

    Primer, details and membrane are applied within the implementation plan.

  4. 04

    Quality control

    Measured values, consumption, details and release are documented.

Frequently asked questions

For a targeted first project decision.

Does PolyShield carry out all civil work itself?

PolyShield coordinates the system route and works with selected partner companies for specialist preparation or additional disciplines.
