FEATURES
Hydroguard is a ready to use solution, based on the hydrophobic silicone compounds for the water-repellency and silicification by injecting.
Injection waterproofing is a way of damp-course carried out by pumping specific products through the prepared holes in the ground, adjoined to the building constructions, constructions, or in the seams and cracks of constructions.
APPLICATIONS
The main objective of Hydroguard is the creation of a horizontal waterproofing barrier, performing old buildings repairing, if lime presents in the masonry composition.
Hydroguard used if necessary to achieve a termination of the water capillary rising damp in concrete and masonry, through the creation of an internal hydrophobic effect and the restriction or overlapping capillary structure.
Such effect is reached through the lime interaction with a hydrophobic solution, thereby forming insoluble chemical compounds stopping capillary absorption.
Injection technology is well suited for the protection of the existing buildings and constructions from rising capillary moisture by creating a horizontal waterproofing.
The most common injuries that occur during repair of buildings is damage of walls, basements and structural elements, which contact with the ground, by reason of moisture penetration.
The water in wet brick walls rises through the fine pores (capillaries) and cracks in buildings structural elements.
As a result of the horizontal waterproofing, water rising stops.
INJECTION WATERPROOFING IS EFFECTIVE IN THE NEXT CASES:
- Waterproofing of brick-made and concrete foundations, as well as the implementation of internal insulation to avoid the water capillary rising damp
- Insulation of walls, ceiling and floor in grounded constructions
- Concrete bearing walls strengthening
- Strengthening of the old dilapidated foundations
- Isolation of the contraction joints and voids in reinforced concrete constructions
- Injection force elements during overhaul
- The bearing capacity restoration of concrete buildings, dilapidated foundations and underground premises
- Filling of the cracks, gaps and capillaries in order to eliminate the possibility of the moisture penetration in brick, concrete or stone constructions
- Repairing and waterproofing of expansion joints
INJECTION METHODS:
- Pressure injection method. Pressure injection is recommended if the treated masonry is substantially or completely saturated with water.When applying the hydrophobizator under pressure, the materials impregnation degree is up to 95%. When injected under pressure, the constructions processing time is significantly saved.
- Injection without pressure.Water-repellent composition is supplied by gravity, without pressure. For this, 40° inclined to the surface drilled apertures are required.
CONSUMPTION not less than 15 kg/m² of the wall cross-sectional area.
PROPERTIES
The horizontal waterproof barrier with Hydroguardcan be used only in the absence of a water load, i.e. where there is no water outlet.
TRAITS AND ADVANTAGES
- Provides moisture resistance of concrete constructions
- Provides durability and improves the quality of the constructions
- Strengthens the basements and creates a special strength of the treated constructions (foundations, walls)
- The extraordinary simplicity of the technology
- Fills all the existing gaps, cracks, holes and capillaries, and creates a waterproof, but elastic barrier when hardens
- Provides the ability to perform high-quality insulation of the construction, both in the basic building process, and when performing planned or emergency repairing
- Execution of work at any time of the year, regardless of the ambient temperature
- Significant savings in consumables and manpower
- Injection can be performed selectively, only in requiring isolation areas
- It is carried out without stopping the main works about constructings
- Eliminates ground excavations in the under the ground areas isolation
- Interacts with the main building material at the chemical level
- Quickly and easily penetrates into wet constructions of any thickness
- Keeping natural ventilation
- Increases resistance to the mechanical damages
- Does not cause corrosion of reinforcing steel
