Advantages
- Water is prevented from entering substrate Advantages
surface - Accessible after installation
- Substrate is protected from corrosive in - Concrete substrate is allowed to moist
groundwater cure
Disadvantages - Eliminates need for subslabs and well
-Concrete may not cure properly pointing for chemicals foundation
- System inaccessible for repairs after waterproofing
installation
- Subslabs and well pointing necessary for Disadvantages
foundation waterproofing - Limited to application of cementitious
systems
*With all positive systems, concrete should cure - No protection of substrate or reinforcing
properly (up to 21 days) before application of steel from ground and chemicals
any waterproofing materials.
