Waterproof Concrete Bronze
Waterproof Concrete Bronze
Ready-mixed concrete designed for structural waterproofing in civil engineering applications.
Application
Waterproof concrete is ideal for preventing either water ingress or water egress in residential, industrial, and commercial projects.
Applications include:
- Structural waterproofing in civil engineering projects.
- Basements.
- Lift pits.
- Concrete facades.
- Residential and industrial buildings such as housing.
- Commercial and leisure facilities including swimming pools.
- Engineered structures such as retaining walls and tunnel shafts.
Description
Ready-mixed concrete solution, specially developed for structural waterproofing in civil engineering. It incorporates advanced admixture technology from Sika® to reduce permeability and enhance durability.
Available in three variants:
- Bronze: using concrete pore blocking admixture, available as a liquid or powder. The powder is a combined water-resisting and HRWR/ Superplasticising admixture, used to enhance the workability and reduce the permeability of concrete.
- Silver: waterproofing integrated into the concrete. Liquid water penetration is stopped by the structure itself and cannot entirely pass through into the structure.
- Gold: All the benefits of the Silver offering, plus SikaProof® A+ fully bonded membrane.
Features and benefits:
- Integral waterproofing solution.
- High range water reduction for higher density, durability and strength performance.
- Reduced water penetration under hydrostatic pressure.
- Complies with BS 8102, type B integral waterproofing construction.
- Quality-assured and sustainable with 100% recyclability.
- Available as pumpable or flowing mix.
