WATERPROOFING OF CONCRETE
A mortar or concrete is considered impermeable when it
does not permit passage or flow of water through its
pores or voids.
The absorption of a mortar or concrete is the property
of drawing in or engrossing water into its pores or
voids by capillary action or otherwise.
If the pores or voids between particles are sufficiently
large and connected from surface to surface of the wall,
the concrete will be permeable to water.
If the pores or voids are very minute, but connect with
one another, theoretically they may act as capillary
tubes, but the capillary forces will tend to hold the water
and prevent the passage of water.

WATERPROOFING OF CONCRETE
The various methods of waterproofing concrete may be
classified as follows :
a.
Impermeability through a Dense Concrete
Accurate grading and proportioning of the concrete
materials in order to secure a concrete so dense as to
be waterproof.
b.
Waterproofing Coatings and Washes
Applying waterproof coatings or washes to the
concrete after it is on place.
c.
Integral Waterproofing Compounds
Mixing foreign substances with the concrete.
d.
Membrane Waterproofing
Surrounding the concrete with layers of waterproofing
materials.

WATERPROOFING OF CONCRETE
a.
Impermeability through a Dense Concrete
Portland cement mortar and concrete can be made
practically waterproof or impermeable without the
use of any integral waterproofing materials; but in
order to obtain such impermeable concrete or
mortar considerable care should be exercised in
selecting good materials :
• Well-graded sands containing considerable
graded fine material are preferable for making
impermeable concrete, or fine material in the
form of hydrated lime, finely ground clay, or an
additional quantity of cement will be of value.
• The consistency of the concrete mixture should
be wet enough so that it can be puddled, mixture
should be well spaded against the forms to avoid
the formation of pockets on the surface.
• Care should be taken not to over trowel which
may cause erasing the coating will be effective.

WATERPROOFING OF CONCRETE
Permeable concrete results from :
•
Defective workmanship, resulting from improper
proportioning, lack of thorough mixing, separation
of the coarse aggregate from fine aggregate in
transporting and placing the mixed concrete, lack
of density through insufficient tamping or spading,
improper bonding of work joints .
•
The use of imperfectly sized and graded
aggregates.
•
The use of excessive water, causing shrinkage
cracks and formation of laitance-seams .
•
The lack of proper provision to take care of
expansion and contraction, causing subsequent
cracking .

b.
Waterproofing Coatings and Washes
The materials employed as surface coatings may be
classified as follows :
 Alum and soap mixtures applied in alternate
mixtures (known as the Sylvester process),
which penetrates the pores of the concrete
forming insoluble compounds due to chemical
action between the alum and soap solutions,
and these compounds prevents percolation.
- use in proportions of ¾ gal. of soap to 1 gal. of
water, and 2oz. of alum to 1 gal. of water, both
substances to be perfectly dissolved in water
before using.
- should be applied with a soft, flat brush (one
for each solution), the soap boiling hot and the
alum solution at 60 to 70F.

Waterproofing Coatings and Washes
 Specially prepared bituminous products, e.g.,
“FLINT-KOTE”, “JOHN-MANSVILLE”, etc
 Asphalt emulsions - Generally called Asphalt
Base Clay Emulsions, minute asphalt particles
dispersed in water and maintained in suspension
(until applied) by a mineral colloid emulsifying
agent. When the water vehicle evaporates,
resilient reinforced weatherproof film remains
which resist the passage of free water but allows
movement of water vapor through the film and are
classed as breathing films.
 Cutback Asphalts - composed of a variety of
products from thin liquids to heavy paste, often
one or more asphalts dissolved in solvent are
filled with minerals and fibers to meet
requirements of different coating uses and
provide tough, durable films resistant to the
passage of water vapor.

form, e.g.:

The addition of the integral waterproofing
compounds will not, however, compensate for lean
mixtures, nor for poor materials, nor for poor
workmanship in the fabrication of concrete

 Corrugated aluminum is rigidized sheet
fabricated of special aluminum alloys
specifically developed for this purpose.
 Has a high insulating value and is about onesixth lighter than similar materials.
 Is silvery in color, strong and does not stain

 It reacts, however, with dissimilar materials,
lead-base paints green or damp wood, certain
wood preservatives, lime mortar, concrete, and
other masonry materials and must be insulated
from contact with these materials .
 Width of sheets are 32-5/8”, 32”, 31-1/2”, 311/8”, and 30-5/8”; lengths are from 6 to 12 ft. in
