Structural Repair
LeakInject System
The LeakInject System is designed to seal and repair cracks and holes in walls, floors, joints, foundations and concrete construction that suffer from water infiltration. Cracks and holes in structures are typically caused by stresses imposed from the ground surrounding them, as a result of loading, expansion, ground movement or shrinkage.
When left untreated, this damage can affect the stability, safety and durability of a structure. When sealing cracks, We recommend the LeakInject System as an effective technique for a variety of structures including:
- Basements
- Tunnels
- Bridges
- Underground car parks
- Water treatment facilities
Type B Waterproofing
The British Standard for Waterproofing 8102:2022, the Code of Practice for the “Protection of Below Ground Structures Against Water Ingress” defines ‘Type B’ waterproofing as designing the structure itself to be integrally waterproof and the primary resistance to water ingress.
Well designed, well placed and reinforced concrete structures are the best form of primary water resistance, so long as it is designed in accordance with BS EN 1992. The use of correctly designed and installed injection resins in places such as joints and cracks, will result in a Type B structure that should be fully watertight in its own right.
The LeakInject System includes a range of specialist polyurethane and acrylic injection resins that can be used to seal joints and cracks in concrete to achieve an effective Type B solution.
