Paying attention to waterproofing products which offer protection in event of fire is not the norm.  We hardly think of water management and fire in the same thought, however the benefits of doing so are not quite as crazy as it sounds.

The demand for sustainable, cost efficient building methods and materials is constantly increasing, as is the demand for safer building materials.  The waterproofing sector should embrace and support the goal of creating healthy and safe living environments throughout the lifecycle of products.

There are many different design challenges experienced when designing a suitable, maintainable and capable waterproofing system.  From existing basements to multi-level basements – basements which will encompass high water tables at some stage during their service life.

Type C waterproofing system (cavity drainage)

Basement drainage and protection

Gas protection and waterproofing

If using a Type C waterproofing system (cavity drainage) to waterproof a basement, cellar or any below ground structure, a basement drainage system will be required to manage the evacuation of any water ingress which breaches the integrity of the structure.

Cavity Drainage ProductsThe principle of a Type C waterproofing system is to manage and control water ingress.  A basement drainage system will work with the Type C waterproofing system to keep the environment dry.

For the majority of projects, the two systems need to work together – a Type C system without suitable drainage will not keep a basement, cellar or below ground structure dry and a basement drainage system without a Type C system will not adequately keep a basement, cellar or below ground structure dry.

A basement drainage system is made up of four key components, a sump pump, drainage channel, a high-water level alarm and battery back-up.  On occasion the requirement for sump pump, high-water level alarm and battery back-up will not be required if there is a natural drainage to the structure, but this will be specified by the Waterproofing Design Consultant to that specific project.  With structural waterproofing solutions not one system fits all.

Basement Drainage Channels

Basement 2Drainage channels are water collection conduits designed to control water ingress.  These channels are installed around the perimeter of a basement, cellar or below ground structure. They feature a number of holes (preformed holes) that allow any water from the Type C cavity drainage system to enter the channel, then drain into a sump pump (submersible pump station) or suitable discharge point.

Once collected in the sump chamber, the groundwater can then be pumped to a safe evacuation point, often referred to as a ‘sump pump system’.

Drainage channels are available with or without upstands, and are supplied in durable straight lengths, the use of T-junctions, corner pieces, straight connectors, jetting eyes, end caps and access ports.

When designing basement drainage and channels, consideration should always be given to future maintenance. As with all drainage systems, it must be maintainable!

Basement Protection

A high-water level alarm and battery back-up are beneficial to the end user (homeowner).

A high-water level alarm will alert the homeowner when there is a potential fault with the sump pump system or if the sump pumps require a service.

A battery back-up will keep pumps running in the event of mains power failure.

val des portas 6 - Basement waterproofingInstalling basement drainage channels

Drainage channels are embedded into a preformed recess/gully at the floor wall junction of the structural slab.

When correctly installed, groundwater drainage channels will work with the Type C cavity drainage system to mitigate any hydrostatic water bearing against the structure (basement/cellar).

We recommend one sump pump system should be installed for each 50 linear meters of channel; the length of each channel running to the sump should not exceed 25m.

For anyone in a non-technical sense to fully appreciate the nature and risks associated with water ingress in below ground structures, we invite you to read this paper to gain an understanding of substructure waterproofing and the importance of remedial action. Potential consequences of active leaks are numerous, from cost for remedial works to reduction in building life cycle.

Sources of external water such as a high or rising water table, river, extreme weather, tidal changes, poorly drained soil, defective drains can all result in water penetration of a structure at below ground level.

North London luxury residenceThis penetrating water may have enough pressure and strength to ingress a structure, even one which is presumed to have been adequately waterproofed.

Basements and other below ground structures can leak both during and after construction. Any construction below ground will always be subject to groundwater.   Groundwater will try and will seep through cracks and joints in all construction. Joints (from movement to floor/wall junctions) will always require attention when waterproofing and these are common pitfalls in project fails.

Koster_2_IN_1-1There are often miscommunications and understanding of definitions of waterproofing. It is often presumed one waterproof system is enough to ‘waterproof’ a below ground structure, leading to a misconception that the structure is impervious to ground water.

Waterproofing design should always be undertaken by a Waterproofing Design Specialist, someone with a CSSW or equivalent qualification and to be designed to meet British Standard BS 8102:2009. A Waterproofing Design Specialist will always design a waterproofing system to reduce risk, this system will combine the project requirements with best practice. The successful choice, design and construction of a waterproofing scheme rely on heavily on communication between the manufacturer, design team, installer, contractor and owner – a better understanding of advice and practicalities encourage Best Practice and ultimately openness, transparency and accountability.

Stopping Active Water LeaksRemedial work to active leaks in construction, which is exposed, are relatively easy to find and fix. If the construction is not exposed and finishing’s are in place, these leaks are difficult to find but not impossible. Use of a thermal imaging cameras/borescopes/moisture meters or visual inspections are usually enough to locate these leaks.

Depending on the leak itself will depend on the remedial work required. It is important to understand the waterproofing options available and how these will have a cost and time implication to a project.

Five Tonnes of Plastic Saved from Landfill in 2019 by Award-Winning Recycling Service

Building Products Index Ltd waterproofing Leave a Comment

View the Newton Waterproofing entry on BPindex

Visit the Newton Waterproofing website

An innovative and unique recycling service set up by Newton Waterproofing has saved 5.174 tonnes of plastic from going to landfill in 2019.

The UK’s leading independent designers and suppliers of guaranteed waterproofing and damp proofing systems had 223 bags of HDPE membrane returned to them throughout the course of the year as part of the Newton Membrane Recycling Scheme.

Recycling-membrane-scene-rgbBy recycling waste plastic into new products instead of manufacturing from new HDPE, during 2019 alone Newton have prevented 5.944 tonnes of CO2e emissions from being released into the atmosphere; the equivalent of burning 1.96 metric tonnes of petrol and saving enough energy to make 826,200 mugs of tea.

Furthermore, since the scheme’s launch in 2017 it has successfully prevented over 13.7 tonnes of plastic from going to landfill, equivalent to preventing 15.746 tonnes of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.

It’s no surprise, then, that the service has won six awards in just over two years, including the ‘Charles Darwin Award’ from the British and Irish Trading Alliance (BITA); the ‘Commitment to the Environment Award’ at the Kent Excellence in Business Awards (KEiBA); the prestigious ‘Innovation of the Year’ award from the National Building Awards; and the ‘Sustainability’ award at the Property Care Association Best Practice Awards.

Newton Waterproofing’s Managing Director Warren Muschialli said: “Our innovative recycling service had another tremendous year in 2019 and, as well as the environmental benefits, we also saved 223m3 of skip space on site, equivalent to more than 24 full skips and therefore 50 skip journeys. This obviously delivers further emission and cost savings.”

The closed-loop scheme works in collaboration with the company’s Newton Specialist Basement Contractors (NSBC) who collect waste off-cuts of plastic membrane on their projects.

The waste is then collected by Newton at the same time as making deliveries of new materials, therefore preventing additional emissions from transporting the plastic. Finally, the material is chipped into small granules by Newton, then collected by a national recycler for reprocessing and reusing to make new products for the construction industry.

“We are proud to operate what is the only recycling service in the waterproofing industry,” added Warren.

“With the Government setting a target of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, it presents the construction industry with a wonderful opportunity to make a difference.”

Newton Waterproofing design and supply guaranteed waterproofing and damp proofing systems for all structures, from large-scale commercial developments to new build and existing domestic properties. For more information, call 01732 360 095 or email info@newtonwaterproofing.co.uk.   

Design & Build Waterproofing Philosophies for Podium Decks, Buried Roofs, Balconies and Terraces

Delta’s Technical Waterproofing Consultant and Architect, Michael Vernon considers Waterproofing Design philosophies

building section 3d rendering

There are many common pitfalls when it comes to designing a waterproofing system for podium decks, buried roofs, balconies and terraces.  Products do not fail!  When failures occur, it is due to the design and build philosophy not being correct.  The devil is in the detail – all waterproofing elements must be considered at the construction design stage to be durable and effective.

The trend for outdoor living has led to a market growth in external balconies, large roof/ground floor terraces and patios.  As well as adding monetary value to a property, external areas can be aesthetically pleasing, offering a wide range of colours, textures and finishes to a home.

Concrete deck 10Outside living can also help to promote health and well-being benefits as these extra useable areas for open air living, help to soften heavily urbanised locations and steadily increase the number of green and usable spaces for leisure.

Balconies, roof terraces and patios are part of a trend which is inspired by aspirational and luxury living in suburban and rural areas alike.

 

When specified with the correct waterproofing systems, all types of installations are possible, however the design needs careful consideration and a CSSW qualified Waterproofing Design Specialist should always be consulted at the earliest opportunity.

Deuxan 2CThe primary requirement of waterproofing design is the prevention of water ingress and the management of water and water vapour movement through and out of a structure.  The design ethos for waterproofing podium decks, buried roofs, balconies and terraces is identical to that used in any below ground area of a structure.

There are many different approaches to structural waterproofing.   The construction methods will in part contribute to the specification of types of waterproofing systems and may also determine the overall structural waterproofing strategy.

Structural waterproofing falls into 3 categories:

Type A – Barrier Protection

Type B – Structurally Integral Protection

Type C – Drained Protection

With 3 grades:

Grade 1 – Some water seepage and damp are tolerable depending on the intended use

Grade 2 – No water penetration is acceptable

Grade 3 – No dampness or water penetration is acceptable

Delta Deck (5) copySuccessful waterproofing design lies with choosing the most appropriate combinations of structure and waterproofing system to achieve pre-determined performance levels and criteria.  In order to design out risk of failure due to less than adequate workmanship, damage or defects on site it is also important to consider practicality and ease of installation, the phasing of the construction process and the scope for testing and certifying during construction.

In summary, it is the duty of the waterproofing designer to assess a variety of factors and variables simultaneously and to come to a logical and balanced decision regarding the design. Working as part of the design team and keeping abreast of changes, revisions and updates to the project is important because these could have a bearing upon the environmental, structural and other stresses that may be imposed upon the waterproofing system and adaptations may need to be made. Ensuring proper training, application expertise, certification and testing procedures on the part of the installing contractor is critical. Whether the proposed construction is warm roof, cold roof, green roof, blue roof or a combination of types the principles stated here will apply in equal measure to achieve a successful long-term outcome.

Impact of the Fire Regulation Changes on Roofing Systems

Building Products Index Ltd Insulation, Waterproof Membranes, waterproofing Leave a Comment

View the Radmat entry on BPindex

Visit the Radmat website

_©Jon Lucas_Bloomberg_4392On 21stDecember 2018 the Government of England and Wales brought into force revisions to the Building Regulations aimed at preventing a repeat of the Grenfell Tragedy.  Unfortunately, the nature of the release of the Amendments, and the requirement for reader to insert information into the existing Building Regulation’s has led to some misinterpretation of the revised regulations (which have now been re-published in full).

What is clear is that the Government of England & Wales now require that materials which become part of an external wall, or specified attachment, are of European Classification A2-s1, d0 or A1, classified in accordance with BS EN 13501-1:2007+A1:2009 entitled “Fire classification of construction products and building elements” on high-rise buildings that contains flats, as well as hospitals, residential care premises and student accommodation above 18 metres. These products are widely referred to as ‘non-combustible’.

What is also clear is that the requirement for ‘non-combustible’ products does not extend to roofing systems as they are covered by a specific statement in regulation 7(3) Paragraph (2) does not apply to:

(b)any part of a roof (other than any part of a roof which falls within paragraph (iv) of regulation 2(6)) if that part is connected to an external wall’.
and
(g) membranes

ProTherm Rockface build upWhere the requirement for ‘non-combustible’ materials does apply is in regulation 2(6)(a)(iv) any part of a roof pitched at an angle of more than 70 degrees to the horizontal if that part of the roof adjoins a space within the building to which persons have access, but not access only for the purpose of carrying out repairs or maintenance;.  However, there remains a requirement for clarification of this statement, which the roofing sector is currently seeking from MHCLG as flexible roof waterproofing materials are not ‘non-combustible’.  They are manufactured to meet the relevant fire test standards contained in Approved Document B section B4 (BS 476-3 and BS EN 13501-5:2005+A1). The does not apply statement in regulation 7(3)(g) membranes would seem to confirm the waterproofing does not need to be ‘non-combustible’ but the other elements of the roofing system such as deck and insulation will need to be.

A second area requiring clarification is regulation 2(6)(b)(i) a balcony attached to an external wall;.  Traditional balcony construction projects from the building, as it is were an attachment to the external wall.  But modern construction includes for ‘balcony over balcony’ construction and ‘balcony over habitable space’ construction.  It is the general belief of the roofing sector that the requirement for ‘non-combustible’ material does impact ‘balcony over balcony’ construction, but that a ‘balcony over habitable space’ construction is not affected as it is actually a flat roof due to the requirement for waterproofing and insulation and is therefore covered under Approved Document B section B4.

The last area requiring clarification is regulation 2(6)(a)(ii) any decoration or other finish applied to any external (but not internal) surface forming part of the wall;.  Whilst it is clear that a flat roof is exempt from the non-combustible requirements of the regulations there remains a question about high parapet walls as they form the internal face of the external wall.  It is the belief of the author that the ‘non-combustible’ requirements of the regulations do apply to the detailing of the roof at this point and the insulation and substrate should meet European Classification A2-s1, d0 or A1.

A point of note in closing, in Scotland the Technical Handbooks change the height of building impacted by the regulation changes to those above 11 metres.

Asuc Awards 3On Friday 24 November 2017, David J. Symes and Paul Green of Delta Membrane Systems Limited had the pleasure of attending the ASUC (Association of Specialist Underpinning Contractors) yearly AGM and Awards ceremony held at Cafe de Paris, London.

Simon Haslam, ASUC Chairman commenced the AGM and Awards ceremony by welcoming all.  John Patch gave the ASUC AGM update, followed by Simon updating members on another busy and full year.

ASUC AWARD (2)Guest speaker Eddie “The Eagle” Edwards thanked speaker sponsors and awards were given.

The last award of the ceremony was announced for Innovation and Sustainability, a category not usually associated with the Association of Specialist Underpinning Contractors, but it was felt that Delta Membrane Systems Limited, a member of ASUC who had taken part in the ‘BRE Flood Resilient Home’ project should be recognised for their innovative work in flood remediation.

ASUC Awards DeltaWe were so surprised and absolutely delighted to be recognised and named as winners of the Innovation and Sustainability Award.  Yet another great achievement for Delta Membrane Systems Limited!

As a growing and niche business, to win the category of Innovation and Sustainability of the year is a testament of our earnest effort, not only for us as a business but a great achievement to all involved in the flood remedial and waterproofing sectors.
Asuc Awards 4This is the second award Delta Membrane Systems Limited has won this year, having won the PCA (Property Care Association) Innovation and Sustainability Award back in May.

Delta Membrane Systems Limited is also in the running for the prestigious Construction News Specialist Awards for the categories of Innovation of the year (Non-Contractor) and Material Supply of the Year.

Delta Membrane Systems Limited has sought to improve the built environment through research and knowledge generation, to win this award is a great testament to our commitment and dedication.

#TeamDelta 1Christopher Burbridge, Director for Delta Membrane Systems Limited said “Receiving any kind of award is a great achievement; winning one from a great organisation such as Association of Specialist Underpinning Contractors (ASUC) is an achievement we are incredibly proud of.  Very few things in life are entirely the work of just one person and this is no exception, so I must pay tribute to the enormous contributions of all Delta staff, without which none of this would have been possible.  This award is as much for #TeamDelta, as it is for me and my fellow Directors.  The award will take pride in our training suite at our head office in Epping. With so many good projects to choose from, the judges must have had an unbelievably difficult job and I’d like to thank everyone who voted for Delta Membrane Systems Limited to win”.

David J.
