2. An AMAZING Elastomeric Membrane Coating
Retaining Wall Waterproofing:
How to prepare the substrate surface
3. What is Liquid Rubber?
• An asphalt emulsion coating
engineered to provide
exceptional adhesive, elastic &
waterproof properties.
• Spray or brush applied at
ambient temperature.
• Cures into a seamless
membrane
– Waterproofing ability
– Corrosion resistance
– Chemical resistance
– Encapsulation.
4. Liquid Rubber ideal to
waterproof Retaining Walls
• Quick application
• Excellent flexibility for structural movement
• Flexibility allows bridge small hairline cracks
• Extreme adhesion to the substrate
• No Flames, Torches or Fumes
• Environmentally Friendly – no VOCs
7. Waterproof Preparation
• Aim is have substrate smooth, dry and free of
contaminants.
• May require primers/patch work ensure
surface as monolithic as possible.
• However difficult to fill all surface defects.
• Unfortunately many of these defects only
show after waterproof membrane application.
8. Waterproofing is all about
great preparation
• Attention to detail
• Prep all voids, form-tie holes & joins
9. Premium waterproofing is all
about great preparation
• Preparation to all-thread up-stands embedded in concrete for
installation of future equipment.
11. Premium waterproofing is all
about great preparation
• Wall / footing joints may require cement or other trowel-grade
material to form a "fillet" (radius or cove)
12. Premium Preparation
• However difficult to fill all surface defects.
• Unfortunately many of these defects only show after
waterproof membrane application.
• F.E.W Waterproofing offer a premium service to complete
bag/render of substrate surface.
• This acrylic render coat provides a monolithic clean substrate.
• Also provides extra barrier to moisture penetration.
• Assurance all tie-holes are properly filled.
13. Premium Preparation
• Acrylic render provides the ideal retaining wall surface preparation for
voids, form-tie holes and joints.
14. Premium Preparation
• Acrylic render provides the ideal retaining wall surface preparation for
voids, form-tie holes and joints.
