The Importance of Effective Waterproofing for Concrete Structures

The Importance of Effective Waterproofing for Concrete Structures

Concrete structures should be cured with sufficient amount of water after pouring and the water lost due to ambient conditions should be regained so that the concrete should set correctly.

The first 7-day period following the concrete casting and the 28-day period thereafter are very important for the correct curing of concrete surfaces. Proper curing with water is of vital importance to prevent unwanted crack formation in the most critical 7-day short-term and 1-year long-term setting period from the day of pouring of the concrete.

After the concrete has set, the process with water starts to work in reverse. Now we need to protect the concrete against the water coming from the outdoor conditions so that the water does not seep through the micro cracks and it does not cause many strength reducing effects, especially corrosion, on the steel reinforcements in the concrete.

Liquid or sprayed waterproofing products are the leading modern methods used to protect concrete surfaces against water attack. These applications should be applied by certified practitioners at the right rates so that there is not the slightest leakage point. However, deterioration may occur in additional insulation layers depending on improper insulation applications, ambient conditions, usage methods and time. Against such problems, the safety factor can be increased by providing resistance to water in the internal structure of the concrete.

In today's technology, with crystalline waterproofing additives, water infiltration through capillary cracks in concrete and problems such as corrosion, mold and deterioration due to time are prevented.

Crystalline waterproofing products, which contain special additives, help to obtain waterproof concrete structures by providing effective crack coating properties with their special crystal structure by dispersing to every point of the concrete.

The waterproof protection of concrete against all positive and negative water attacks on concrete surfaces allows for a significant increase in the service life of buildings, reduction of maintenance costs and creation of quality living spaces.

In addition to high strength concrete, synthetic micro fiber reinforcements and ergonomic usage advantages, CONCREASY provides maximum protection in indoor wet areas and outdoor concrete applications by containing crystalline waterproofing additives with special technology in its structure.

Offering the fastest and most efficient solution to the waterproofing problem that directly affects the life of the building, CONCREASY is in the global market as the most accurate product for professionals and DIY users. When you need ready-to-use concrete in small volumes, all you have to do is buy CONCREASY from the internet or the nearest hardware store or construction market.
