As a company with almost 50 years in the construction industry, we know just how important that is. And that\u2019s no different for our Technical Services Technician Doug Adam who has spent more than a decade out in the field offering building professionals <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kryton.com\/products\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Smart Concrete<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a> product application assistance. After all, with that kind of insight, you have the know-how to ensure concrete structures remain effectively durable and sustainable for the entirety of their life spans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-CA\">But getting that insight can take time, which not everyone has. That\u2019s why we want to introduce our newest running series \u201cField Notes\u201d hosted by Doug. Through it, Doug will share some of his building insights with you on topics like best construction practices, what to watch out for, and items to consider when planning for durable and sustainable concrete construction. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-CA\">To start us off, we\u2019ll be looking at what aspects affect your choice of concrete waterproofing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7767\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site.png\" alt=\"Sharing Insights from On-Site with Doug Adam, Technical Services Technician\" width=\"571\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site.png 1508w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site-1024x600.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site-768x450.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sharing-Insights-from-On-Site-1200x703.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 571px) 100vw, 571px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-CA\">Concerns regarding waterproofing selection can vary depending on a number of factors unique to the building being constructed. These include key factors like the local climate, an area\u2019s geography and geology, and the application of a structure, which all play into design considerations. (It\u2019s important to note that items like aesthetics and cost also have influence during the design stage, but these will not be included in this particular discussion.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-CA\">To see why these three factors play a key role, let\u2019s look at them individually.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7757 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"The Vancouver Convention Centre is surrounded by a body of water under a dark blue sky that lightens up a bit near the right side.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-1600x1067.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-1285691099-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Local_Climate\"><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\" style=\"font-size: 30pt;\">1. Local Climate<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Depending on the local climate, waterproofing might be a key concern.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, a temperate climate like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welcomebc.ca\/Choose-B-C\/Explore-British-Columbia\/Climate-of-B-C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">south coast of British Columbia (BC)<\/a>, Canada, is exposed to large amounts of rainfall. Such heavy rain leads to saturated ground that can maintain a steady hydrostatic pressure against a structure. This pressure can be sufficient enough to cause water infiltration in otherwise sound concrete and can lead to rebar corrosion or concrete fatigue. Both of which can cause enough damage that the concrete suffering from either may need repairs.<\/p>\n<p>This particular climate also comes with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/2013\/11\/freezethaw-cycles-can-lead-to-concrete-deterioration-stickman-fact-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">freeze-thaw cycles and temperature fluctuations<\/a>. Without the right protection, that can give rise to ongoing freeze-thaw cycles and thermal expansions and contractions, which can produce an extensive amount of cracking in concrete, especially if the concrete has a low-air-entrained mix.<\/p>\n<p>Many address these particular climate concerns with an appropriate mix design and the use of admixtures meant to stabilize concrete.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s also the dryer end of the spectrum to consider. With summers in the region becoming increasingly hotter, it\u2019s becoming more common to select waterproofing materials that are capable of withstanding direct sunlight without drying out, blistering, or cracking.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7768 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"The Fraser River District can be seen from the air near the Fraser River itself.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1918\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-1536x1151.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-2048x1534.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-1600x1199.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/DJI_0048-1200x899.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Geography_and_Geology\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 30pt;\">2. Geography and Geology<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The geography of a site can make a noticeable difference in <a href=\"https:\/\/education.nationalgeographic.org\/resource\/water-tables-and-aquifers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">water conditions<\/a> when comparing foundations on higher or lower terrain. A building at higher elevation in downtown Vancouver will not be subject to the drainage of the buildings around it. Meanwhile, a building near the banks of the Fraser River will receive all the surface drainage from the slope above. That, in turn, leads to geology coming into play. The same building downtown is founded in a water-filled sandstone pit with no drainage and constant hydrostatic pressure. The building on the river\u2019s edge is in soft, soggy soil and inside the tidal-affected zone with varying water levels.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7755\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"One hand is pointing at the designs for a building on white paper while another set of hands writes on a different sheet of plans.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-1600x1067.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/iStock-695448564-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_The_Application_of_a_Structure\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 30pt;\">3. The Application of a Structure<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The application of a structure not only refers to a structure\u2019s intended use but also its intended service life. An above grade parkade will not endure hydrostatic pressure and will likely be open to the elements while also receiving runoff from wet vehicles. Whereas a below grade basement with living space will be expected to remain dry and comfortable for occupants. And water containment structures such as those at wastewater treatment facilities will experience water on both sides of the walls that must be kept separate.<\/p>\n<p>All these factors lead to a high-risk situation when deciding on which waterproofing materials to use. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kryton.com\/2017\/05\/crystalline-technology-concrete-waterproofing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">crystalline waterproofing products<\/a>, with their resistance to UV exposure; future reactive capability; and ability to function even in contaminated water, have a clear advantage over traditional bituminous products in all of these situations.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Want_more_%E2%80%9CField_Notes%E2%80%9D_insights_from_Doug_Take_a_look_at_the_next_one_in_the_series_here\"><\/span>Want more &#8220;Field Notes&#8221; insights from Doug?
