NATURE OF PROJECT

Multiple water penetration points through the obsolete, cracked and degraded torch-on waterproofing and obsolete waterproofing termination on the concrete roof areas were found. This water penetration had already migrated through the concrete slab into the areas below which could cause serious structural and internal damage. An insulative waterproofing system was needed. abe.^®unigum MS is a waterproofing membrane made of polymer modified bitumen which have been reinforced with a rot proof fabric and a strengthened fibreglass mat, therefore has excellent stability to hotter temperatures. The installation of this insulative and 100% watertight system eliminates any need for stripping of the existing roof as the installation is performed on the top side and uses the existing sheeting as a support platform. abe.^®unigum MS is suitable for solving the most difficult waterproofing problems on flat roofs, sloping and pitched roofs, reinforced concrete, prefabricated concrete, masonry cement, metal and timber decks and terraces.
