Waterproofing Solutions for Shotcrete Foundations: What You Need to Know  

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.
