Spray Applied Waterproofing Systems
A spray applied waterproofing system is a method of applying liquid waterproofing materials onto surfaces using spray equipment. This technique is commonly used to create a seamless and continuous waterproof membrane on a variety of substrates, including concrete, masonry, metal, and wood. Spray applied waterproofing systems offer several advantages, including faster application, seamless coverage, and the ability to reach complex or hard-to-access areas. Here’s an overview of how a typical spray applied waterproofing system works:
Surface Preparation: Before applying the waterproofing material, the surface must be thoroughly cleaned and prepared to ensure proper adhesion. This may involve removing any dirt, debris, grease, or loose particles from the surface. In some cases, surface profiling or roughening may be necessary to improve adhesion.
Priming (if necessary): Depending on the type of substrate and the specific requirements of the project, a primer may be applied before the waterproofing material. The primer helps improve adhesion between the waterproofing material and the substrate, ensuring a strong bond.
Application of Waterproofing Material: The waterproofing material is then applied to the surface using spray equipment such as a high-pressure spray gun or a low-pressure airless sprayer. The material is sprayed onto the surface in an even and consistent layer, ensuring complete coverage. The thickness of the applied waterproofing layer will depend on the specific product and the requirements of the project.
Multiple Coats (if necessary): In some cases, multiple coats of waterproofing material may be applied to achieve the desired level of waterproofing protection. Each coat is typically applied after the previous coat has dried or cured according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Curing: Once the waterproofing material has been applied, it needs to cure or dry fully to form a durable, waterproof membrane. The curing time will vary depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, and the type of waterproofing material used. It’s essential to allow sufficient time for the material to cure before subjecting it to water exposure or other stresses.
Quality Control: After the waterproofing material has cured, it’s essential to inspect the application to ensure that it meets the desired quality standards. Any areas that may have been missed or require additional attention can be addressed at this stage.
Spray applied waterproofing systems are commonly used in various construction applications, including roofing, below-grade waterproofing, tanking, and structural waterproofing. They provide an effective and efficient solution for protecting structures from water infiltration and damage, helping to extend the life of the building and reduce maintenance costs.
