During this 1-hour seminar, attendees will explore the principles, design considerations, and best practices for pre-applied waterproofing systems in shotcrete applications. Participants will gain an in-depth understanding of how pre-applied membranes function as an effective barrier against water infiltration in below-grade structures, tunnels, and other shotcrete installations. The course covers the unique challenges presented by shotcrete, including substrate variability, high-pressure application, and curing conditions, and demonstrates how pre-applied waterproofing solutions address these issues.
Attendees will learn best practices for creating an effective shotcrete pre-applied installation to avoid building leaks that can lead to indoor air quality contamination, mold, and early building decay or even structural failure.
Learning Objectives:
- Recognize the differences between cast-in-place concrete and shotcrete.
- Identify the differences in how shotcrete impacts waterproofing membranes.
- Explore best practices for ensuring structural integrity and waterproofing performance when using shotcrete.
- Apply industry standards and quality control measures.
