The construction site was 5’ under the water table, making installation of a bentonite mat impossible. A waterproofing product was needed to allow placement of the concrete into the waterlogged site, despite constantly high heads of water pressure.

Products Used:
All below grade concrete structures of the three-level parking garage, including the matt slab on grade and perimeter walls were treated with PENETRON ADMIX. PENEBAR SW-55 was used in all the below grade construction joints and around all intrusions in the slab on grade (concrete foundation slab) and the basement walls.
