The waterproofing specification also included Mapei’s Idrocrete KR 1000 watertight admixture, which was incorporated into the Watertight 20PC concrete mix supplied by Aggregate Industries from its Leith plant.
Buckley Homes Pitt Street complex includes eight one-bedroom luxury apartments, each with south facing balconies overlooking the Water of Leith path. During the foundation works, Site Sealants installed Mapeproof AL AP and Mapeproof AL 1200 AP waterproof membranes to protect the underground structure of the building. Mapeproof AL AP is a fully bonded HDPE (High Density Polyethylene Geomembrane) membrane that’s installed prior to the pouring of concrete and Mapeproof AL 1200 AP - a self-adhesive system – is applied after concrete has been poured. |
