CHALLENGE
The bridge chamber, situated 3 meters below the water table, was constructed out of high quality concrete. It started to have problem with alkali reactions due to the aggregate in the concrete, and also had leaking problems. A new 30cm slab constructed on the original slab also started leaking.

PERFORMANCE
The Krystol T1/T2 Waterproofing System was chosen by the Highway Authority of Sweden to waterproof and protect this below grade bridge chamber.

The Krystol T1/T2 Waterproofing System was applied to the new slab and walls to stop the water penetration. The Krystol Waterproofing Systems have an ability to control the deleterious alkali-aggregate reaction in concrete. The Krystol Systems are also used to prevent the ingress of water-laden contaminents into and through the concrete to permanently waterproof and protect the concrete.
