extruded bentonite-rubber waterstop  
"FAQ" 1

if it rains or if is flooded

?

many extruded bentonite waterstop  e.g. bentonite/butyl rubber based waterstop
how do they work                                      prior to second concrete pour
 

Thus....:
1 - the extruded waterstop immediatly hydrates and increases its volume prematurely;

     thereby it doesn't realize a waterproofing barrier.
2 - Waterstop cannot be replaced.
3 - During the concrete pour, the concrete push forward the expanded bentonite that soils and muddies the concrete

     reinforcement, causing adhesion problems which determine the irons being uncoupled from the concrete, exatly in the

     zone, where  the iron/concrete matrix must be maximum .

     This phenomenon is known as  reduction or zero setting iron/concrete matrix.

rubber based waterstop

"FAQ" 2

R. The most important waterstop Producers' warnings and

recommendations in order to install the bentonite extruded waterstop are :
- It must be settled with GLUING.
- An adhesive to install it to the concrete.... is necessary.
- It should not be secured (fixed ) with mechanical nails alone:

   nails may be used in conjunction with glue .
-
Whenever possible do not pour concrete directly on waterstop or allow vibrator to come

   in direct contact with waterstop.
- do not install when work areas are flooded ; bentonite extruded waterstop must to be protected against anticipate

   rains (before the concrete pour).
- Replace bentonite extruded waterstop if premature expansion happens.. .

Is it true that... many   extruded  bentonite waterstop
 e.g.  bentonite/butyl rubber based waterstop  must be glued to the concrete
"FAQ" 3

?

how does work ... an  extruded  bentonite waterstop   e.g.  bentonite/butyl rubber based waterstop
                                                     if it is not mechanically (e.g. nails) very well settled
 

R.  if waterstop is not firmly fixed to the concrete

surface where it was installed, the concrete grout, goes

under the waterstop.
It is surrounded by concrete,

thereby waterstop becomes similar

as an reinforcement bar.

 

             in this event,

             the bentonite/butyl rubber based waterstop
             is a non-existent sealant waterstop.

NOTE- one PRODUCER recommendations are: waterstop must be settled (fixed ) with mechanical nails alone.
