Products Used

The Penetron System of crystalline concrete waterproofing products was specified to protect the below-grade concrete structures – situated 65 m (20 feet) below the water table – from the site’s high hydrostatic pressure. Over 20,000 m2 of PENETRON ADMIX-treated concrete was used for the basement and parking structures. PENEBAR SW (45 and 55) Type A swellable waterstop tape and PENEBAR PRIMER were used to seal the concrete joints.
