to poured concrete for waterproofing and
protection of underground basement or
metro slabs and walls

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS • Must be covered with concrete within 45 days of its

Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP is a multilayer compound
waterproof membrane composed of strong high
density polyethylene ( HDPE) sheet, premium quality
pressure senstive adhesives, and white fine mineral
sand layers, specially developed adhesive layer can
keep continuous bond to post-poured concrete for
basement structure waterproofing.
installation (lesser for extreme weather conditions)
ADVANTAGES
• Excellent tensile strength, tear strength and
elongation performance.
• Continuous bond to post-poured concrete.

WHERE TO USE • Excellent anti-impact and anti-puncture

• Municipal construction, commercial, and residential
building basement waterproofing with ballasted
method;
• Utility tunnel or culvert waterproofing project;
• Metro station and open-cut excavation structure;
• Special design for Damp substrate construction, but
no water on the surface;
• Overlap area will be sealed during rainy season or
water pour out when appliation, avoid immersion.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• When long-time exposed under the sun, unless
concrete poured immediately, protect it with
suitable covering.
performance, not need of additional protection
layer, reinforced concrete poured directly;
• The fully new bonding techniques can keep
continuous bond to post poured concrete to resist
water migration at the highest pressures.
• Excellent chemical resistance to alkaline water from
concrete slurry;
• Without screed-coat, less requirements for
substrate, application will not be affected by damp
surface, and hold significant application advantages
during rainy season or catch the deadline.
• Cold-application with pressure senstive adhesives,
eco-friendly, and not need cement-mortar protective
layer, save time & cost;

• Application should be avoided during heavy rains. • Excellent weather-resistance and anti-aging;

Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membranes preparation include the following:

must be installed with the adhesive side
upwards and positioned so that it will be in
direct contact with the structural concrete
when it is poured. Membrane overlap joints
and other detailing connections are sealed
and bonded using the integral self-adhesive
strips on the membranes, and or by using the
special Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP
adhesive tapes.
Substrates for installation of the
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membrane
system need to have sufficient stability to
avoid movement during the installation and
subsequent construction works, including the
concreting.
• The requirements for substrate and their
• A smooth, uniform and clean substrate
surface is essential to prevent membrane
damage.
• The substrate should be free from oil and
grease, dust and any other loose particles
• Large gaps and voids must be pre-filled
with sand cement mortar before the
installation.
• The substrate can be damp or slightly wet,
but ponding water must be avoided.
• The substrate temperature must be above
+5°C.

General installation procedure:
Ensure the substrates fulfil the requirements,
condition of substrate and surface preparation.
Install the cut and moulded piece L-shaped
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP sheets, for the
perimeter edges and connections on the walls
and upstands.
Connect the corner pieces with the next edge
sheets using the detailing tapes.
Lay out the Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP
membranesheets in the area (horizontal or
vertical) using standard width rolls and bond
the sheets together using the self-adhesive
strips lengthways and using the detailing tapes
for transverse joints.
Form all of the necessary details, such as pipe
penetrations, connections, sumps or lift pits,
pile caps, expansion joints and any others that
are required using the appropriate accessory
products and other compatible
Mapei waterproofing solutions.
After the installation is completed inspect the
installed Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP
membrane system to check all the overlap
joints, connections and details, to ensure they
are correctly installed.
After the reinforcement is fixed and before the
concrete is poured a finally inspection is
recommended to check if there is any damage
or anything that could negatively influence the
full bond (e.g. separation/protection layers) of
the Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP system to the
structural concrete.
After removing the formwork all penetrations
(such as tie-bars), any construction or
expansion joints, plus any membrane damage
has to be sealed using the appropriate
accessories or complementary Mapei
waterproofing solution, e.g. Plastimul PU W,
Mapeproof Swell, Planigrout 300,
Adesilex PG 2 SP
After removing the formwork the
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membrane
system has to be inspected and repaired if any
damage has occurred. Finally the membrane
has to be protected within the defined limited
exposure period.
Before backfilling the structure, the
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membrane has to
be protected.
Sheets applied in vertical directions
Connection of slabs to walls using standard
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membranes:
Cut the overlaps of the vertical membrane
sheets in a straight line, align the membrane
properly to fix the jointing tape properly .
Seal and bond the horizontal overlaps with the
detailing tapes, using external double sided self
adhesive tapes
Seal and bond the overlaps between the
subsequent vertical sheets with their
prefabricated self-adhesive strips.
For Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP membrane
installation on walls, if the height is more than
2m, it is recommend to use fasteners (HDPE
disk or stress plates) for temporary fastening
PROTECTION, CLEANING & REPAIR
Basically it should always be a clear goal to
prevent any damages and soiling on the
installed Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP
membrane system for further cleaning or repair
works to be necessary.
The installed Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP
membrane system has to be protected
temporarily in order to:
• prevent soiling from other work or weather
on site;
• prevent any damages that could be caused
during installation of steel reinforcement or
other trades ;
• protect the membrane from weathering (e.g.
UV exposure)
PACKAGING
Supply in 1.2 m width X 20 m length (or as per
customer requirement), and packed into plastic
bag.
STORAGE
Mapeproof AL/SC (Plus) AP can be stored for
12 month from the date of manufacturing. Keep
the products in a dry place, away from direct
sunlight. Do not place the pallets, one on top of
another and the rolls must always be stocked in
a vertical position. The contact with solvents
and organic liquids may damage the product.
Cover as necessary to protect rolls from
environmental damage, heat, cold or moisture
etc.
Avoid application if the temperature is
excessively low or high, avoid stamping (shoes
with crampons, small objects or sharp edges).
