Parking Garage Membrane

Parking Garage Membrane

Parking Garage Membrane

(OP)
Does anyone know of a more cost effective parking garage membrane, then Tremco Vulkem 345/346 and 350.  Curently we are building an appartment with several parking levels and the cost of the membrane is almost as expensive as the concrete.  We are required to to use a membrane as it is required by the Ontario Building Code (Canada).  Any info would be great.

RE: Parking Garage Membrane

Try researching NEOGARD (Division of Jones-Blair)

at

www.neogard.com

It is a traffic bearing waterproofing that a client of ours has had good success with.

RE: Parking Garage Membrane

If the requirement for the membrane is to protect the reinforcing bars from chloride ion intrusion, sealing the concrete with a 40% silane sealer may be a more cost effective solution.
Conspec Silane 40
L & M Construction Chemicals "Aquapel Plus"
Sonoshield Penetrating Sealer 40 VOC
Vexcon Chemicals "Powerseal 40"
to name a few.

RE: Parking Garage Membrane

Visitor99, have a look at www.chemor.com
They're based in Montreal.  We have used their parking deck membranes, and they seem to be just as good as the others, and somewhat cheaper usually.
