Description:
The Gonjiam Resort area features numerous large water storage facilities to provide a reliable water supply to the region. The project demanded a highly reliable waterproofing solution that would minimize any future repair costs.
Products Used:
PENETRON ADMIX-treated concrete was used in the walls and belowground structures of the water storage structure. Even without an external membrane, the water storage structure has remained completely watertight.
Description:
The "Rigas Udens" municipal water reservoir system supplies the city of Riga with drinking water, feeding from sites outside the area of Riga through surface water and ground water intakes.
Products Used:
PENETRON, PENECRETE and PENEPLUG were used on all water tanks and channels of the system; a crucial factor was the protection of the concrete against chemical attack in addition to the waterproofing.
Description:
The Onondaga County Water Authority (OCWA) upgrade of existing open-air, in-ground reservoirs converted these into enclosed and protected concrete tanks. The construction of a 32 million gallon water holding tank system – spread over more than four acres – benefitted from an effective concrete waterproofing admixture that helped meet stringent performance and cost requirements.
Products Used:
The PENETRON ADMIX waterproofing agent was used in the ready-mix concrete because it met the tight budgetary limits of the OCWA Eastern Reservoir project. It also helps concrete resist damage from freeze-thaw cycles, cracks and even spalling, increasing durability and effectively lowering maintenance costs.
Description:
This project included the water intake installations from the Rimac River, the water treatment plant at Huachipa with a nominal capacity of 10m3/s and a 27km-long water pipeline from Huachipa to Lima (Ramal Norte). It is Latin America’s largest potable water treatment plant, supplying water and sanitation services to 2.4 million people in Lima that were previously without or with very limited access to water.
Products Used:
The PENETRON System was used to protect and waterproof the concrete in the water treatment plant.
Description:
This Greek meat-processing company built a potable water tank and sewage tank at its facility close to Athens, each about 500m2 in size. Both tanks were waterproofed for safety reasons.
Products Used:
The construction joints were treated with PENECRETE MORTAR and the whole concrete surface was coated with PENETRON. The tanks are still functioning flawlessly.
Description:
The City of Harrisonburg, Virginia commissioned new water tanks (a main 5 million gallon tank and a smaller 600,000 gallon tank) to provide many years of service.
Products Used:
The pre-stressed concrete tanks were treated with PENETRON ADMIX in a shotcrete process, providing the concrete with very low permeability characteristics and corrosion protection needed for the prestressed cables and rebar used in the tank construction.
Description:
The renovated water treatment plant features not only a new water storage tank for additional treatment capacity, but also a new filtration and backwash / sedimentation system to better recycle the available water resources and save thousands of gallons of water every day.
Products Used:
The crystalline waterproofing technology of PENETRON ADMIX allowed treatment of the underpinning concrete with no additional on-site labor, shoring, or foundation support.
