Victoria Luncheon: Integral Waterproofing

Use of integral crystalline waterproofing systems for below-grade concrete is one of the available waterproofing options, especially when blind-side application is necessary. However, there are many considerations to be taken into account during the design and construction of these systems. In this case study presentation, Joel Schwartz P.Eng. FEC BEP from JRS Engineering will discuss integral concrete waterproofing used for a large multi-tower development on Vancouver’s False Creek. Content includes:

• systems research and options;
• warranty considerations;
• roles of the project team members;
• design and construction; and
• post-construction and results.

It takes place Wednesday, November 14, 2012, 12:00 noon – 1:30 p.m. at Harbour Towers, 345 Quebec Street, Victoria. Register online at http://www.bcbec.com/seminars.php.
