MEMBRANEMEMBRANE

oday’s designers achieve moisture control and energy e� ciency using an integrated construction approach. They specify materials and details for building envelopes that make it easy to monitor climate and health conditions by separating conditioned from non-conditioned spaces.

Waterproofi ng membranes make that separation possible. These thin layers of material keep water from contacting the material they cover. As performance requirements for building envelopes have become more demanding, waterproofi ng membranes have evolved into engineered materials that keep all moisture out of a conditioned area.

Contractors can now choose from many more options than ever before when matching a waterproofi ng membrane to jobsite conditions and building performance requirements. The membranes are made from a variety of materials in many sizes and thicknesses and can be applied in a number of ways.

Is it exposed to sunlight? Choose UV-stable or UV-resistant materials to prevent degradation.

Will it be applied to a fl exible surface? High-rises and steel buildings fl ex by design, so membranes applied to them must stretch with the building to cover cracks that might occur. Refer to the product’s elongation – an elongation of 150% indicates the membrane can stretch 1.5 times its length when pulled.

Does the building need a breathable membrane? If water does enter and spread across a surface, it needs a way out. Breathable membranes help release it in the form of water vapor.

How durable does it need to be? Membrane materials are rated for resistance to tearing and abrasion. Many that have good elongation properties tear easily during application. Choose one with abrasion resistance if work might be done on membrane before its fi nal coating.

Could it potentially be exposed to chemicals? Membrane below-grade could be exposed to sulfates from soil. Check manufacturer instruction about chemical exposure.

Will it be installed over complicated shapes? Liquid membranes are better for complex shapes and structures. Sheet membrane may be better for smooth, straight surfaces.

The general suggestions above o� er some help with selecting the correct waterproofi ng membrane, but you’ll fi nd more things to consider in this catalog that are applicable to most installations:

WATERPROOFINGFLUID-APPLIED

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

luid-applied membranes deliver excellent waterproofing properties including hardness, tensile strength, tear strength and elongation. There are four main contractor-friendly benefits when compared with sheet waterproofing membranes:Faster Installation: Formulations have quick-curing primers. And you can typically apply spray fluid-applied membranes faster than sheet membranes because there’s no sheets to cut. Improved Built Quality: Installers can coat the entire surface with a continuous membrane that leaves no open seams at joints. As the structure settles or moves, the fluid-applied membrane moves with its host substrate.Project Versatility: By conforming to shapes, fish mouths or voids are eliminated on complex structures. Easy To Detail: Miscommunication between contractors and architects when waterproofing difficult details on complex structures is lessened.The most knowledgeable pros in construction supplies.™

WATERPROOFINGSHEET-APPLIED

SHEET-APPLIED MEMBRANES:

heet waterproofing membranes are factory produced and delivered to the jobsite ready to install. Manufacturers offer a wide range of types. These sheets consist of bentonite clay, modified bitumen, rubber, polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylenepropylenediene monomer (EPDM), reinforced polymers and other rubber and plastic sheet compositions. There are two common types of waterproofing sheet membranes:Self-Adhering: Also known as “peel and stick” membranes – one side is adhesive that’s applied to the concrete surface.Non-Adhesive: Non-adhesive sheet membranes attach to the concrete surface with straps, anchors, plastic welding or fasteners.

Are manufactured to a uniform thickness and have good elongation.Are applied after a concrete curing time of seven days and at temperatures as low as 25° F. Bridge pre-existing cracks up to .0625" wide.Withstand typical surface movements under a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions.Resist punctures and high hydrostatic pressures.Withstand chemicals from soil acids alkalis and fungi.Allow backfilling immediately after membrane application.

TIPS FOR PROPER INSTALLATION

Keep the concrete bonding surface clean and free from significant surface defects and dirt.Position lap joints so they are tight according to the manufacturer’s instruction details. Use only the manufacturer’s recommended mastic and anchoring accessories.

AIR BARRIER

You’ll be installing it, so be sure you know the basics.

Engineers frequently specify a building’s air barrier early in their design process. But you’ll still have influence on their final decision because you’re responsible for the barrier’s proper installation. That’s why it’s important to understand the basics and options on this important construction detail.

What is an air barrier?An air barrier system is a collection of membranes placed on exterior exposures to create a seamless building envelope. It eliminates uncontrolled air leakage in and out of structures. This restriction improves control of temperature, moisture, air quality and humidity in the building.

What are the two air barrier types?The two kinds of air barriers both provide similar results, and are often used together to enhance effectiveness. Interior air barriers control air leakage from the building’s interior into the wall cavity. They’re effective in limiting convection losses within walls during the heating season. Exterior air barriers control infiltration of exterior air into the wall cavity. They’re effective in limiting moist outdoor air from entering during the cooling season, and prevent wind-washing of wall insulation.

Is permeable or impermeable needed?Vapor permeable air barriers allow moisture vapor to pass through the membrane, promoting diffusion. They’re either sheet membranes or fluid-applied and offer varying rates of permeability. Vapor impermeable air barriers block moisture vapor and air. They can be either self-adhering sheet membranes or can be fluid-applied membranes. Engineers determine whether to use a vapor permeable or vapor impermeable air barrier (and how to use it) based on two key factors: the climate where the wall is located, and the wall design including where the air barrier and insulation layer are in relation to each other in the wall.

Why create an airtight building?Restricting air movement through an untreated wall assembly is a cost-effective investment. The National Institute of Science and Technology estimates the right air barrier can improve a building’s performance by reducing heating and cooling costs by as much as 36 percent for a typical initial investment of less than 1-2 percent of the of the building’s cost. Air barriers also help designers keep up with changing building code requirements. And they’re often referenced in their efforts to achieve recognition in the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design rating system. Air barriers also minimize condensation in wall systems that can cause steel reinforcement corrosion, mold and loss of insulation value.

Here are some basic things to consider.

Joint sealants keep water out of joints. They’re designed to expand and contract with the joint to form a durable seal. The sealant and its tight fit in the joint is designed to remain functional for a specified time period. Always make sure the sealant’s service life matches the expected life of the structure.

What are the joint categories?Joint sealants fall into two categories: field-molded and preformed.

Field-molded sealants are applied in liquid or semiliquid form. As they cure, the materials take on the required shape of the joint opening. Field-molded sealants are relatively soft and flexible materials, typically polyurethane, silicone, or acrylic. These special formulations cycle between compression and tension and change their shape without changing their volume.

Preformed sealants are preshaped solid forms. Examples of preformed sealants include rigid waterstops, flexible waterstops, gaskets, gland seals, compression seals, and flexible foam (impregnated and nonimpregnated). Installers push the materials into open joint and change their shape as their width changes.

How should your sealant perform?Most importantly, it should be an impermeable material. It should also have the capability to deform to accommodate movement and rate of movement occurring at the joint – while retaining its original properties and shape if subjected to cyclical deformations. And when being applied to concrete it should form a bond with the concrete surfaces.

Does the weather affect your sealant?Be aware of conditions when applying sealants. In cold temperatures, the cure rate may be slower, but they will ultimately cure to the same physical properties as they do when applied in warmer temperatures. In very hot weather a sealant’s tooling time will be reduced due to dry surfaces accelerating curing.
