Course description: AEC Daily: Sustainable Waterproofing Solutions
Concrete is a very versatile and fundamental building material; however, because it is porous and wicks water through its matrix, concrete has water-related design challenges. This program examines the sustainable benefits of integral concrete waterproofing, and analyzes traditional waterproofing methods as compared to integral methods in terms of performance, durability, risk, cost, construction timeline, and environmental impacts.
Outline the water-related design challenges that affect the durability of concrete structures, including capillary absorption, corrosion and deterioration, aesthetics, leaks, and compatibility and adhesion.
Describe two classes of integral waterproofing products, explaining how they function to seal cracks and protect rebar from corrosion, ensuring occupants have a structurally sound, durable, and leak-free, mold-free building.
Compare waterproofing systems in terms of durability, risk, cost, and construction timeline, as well as their overall environmental impacts related to material content, recyclability, and useful life expectancy of a structure.
Use case studies to demonstrate how hydrophobic admixtures maximize concrete durability and ensure end-of-life re-use, contributing to a project’s sustainable design objectives.
