This presentation will teach design professionals how <br />excess moisture in concrete slabs can lead to flooring system failures. It <br />also covers methods for testing concrete slabs prior to the installation of <br />flooring systems, and presents potential solutions to prevent flooring system <br />failures due to moisture. <br />• Understand how flooring systems can be negatively affected by <br />excess moisture in concrete slabs. <br />• Understand ASTM test methods available for testing concrete slabs. <br />• Identify where excess moisture in concrete slabs originates. <br />• Identify possible solutions for mitigating excess moisture in concrete <br />slabs to ensure successful installation of flooring solutions. <br />Basics of Concrete Restoration & Repair <br />This program reviews the constituents of concrete and walks you through <br />the concrete restoration process: evaluating current conditions and <br />damage to the concrete, proper surface preparation, and choosing the <br />proper materials and methods to repair and restore cast-in-place concrete. <br />• Identify the root causes of concrete deterioration and the effect of <br />carbonation and chlorides on reinforcing steel. <br />• Learn how to create a restoration process: pre-testing requirements, <br />material selection and application methods. <br />• Learn how to select proper and effective concrete surface preparation <br />methods based on industry guidelines. <br />• Gain an understanding of the various methods of application <br />available to repair and restore cast-in-place concrete. <br />Stopping Water with Chemical Grouts <br />Water always tends to flow from higher to lower elevations. The amount of <br />water in any given area is a function of the available supply. Groundwater <br />can move under pressure around rocks and through soils creating what <br />seems to be an endless supply to underground structures and tunnels. This <br />presentation will show how chemical grouts have been used successfully <br />to provide soil stabilization and water control during excavation, tunneling <br />and a large variety of construction challenges. <br />• Understand the what, why and where of chemical injection grouting. <br />• Understand how to assess the repair site and select a method of <br />repair. <br />• Identify and assess the qualities of the various types of available <br />chemical grouts. <br />• Understand how to select the proper type of polyurethane or acrylate <br />chemical grout that will match the specific needs of a project.</p> <p>Rapid Concrete Repair Technology <br />“Return to Service” and the “Need for Speed” are a <br />main focus in today’s fast-paced construction industry. This <br />presentation will address the requirements of Rapid Concrete <br />Repair Technology for the construction industry. <br />• Explore the need for advanced , high-performance, <br />rapid-repair technology in today’s structures and facilities <br />(e.g. buildings, roads and bridges). <br />• Review and understand the some of the most challenging <br />infrastructure repair problems in the country. <br />• Review and understand the need for rapid return to <br />service of concrete repair in the U.S. Military, State’s <br />DOT, Port Authorities, commercial maintenance <br />companies, airports, and industrial facilities. <br />• Understand how to create a restoration process to <br />include pre-testing requirements, material selection, <br />application methods and the effect of the environment on <br />the repair process.</p> <p>High Performance Traffic Coating Systems <br />When a parking garage is shut down, it costs the owner <br />valuable income. Sealing a concrete parking deck is <br />essential to the longevity and durability of the structure. This <br />presentation will teach design professionals how excess <br />moisture in concrete decks can cause premature failures and <br />the need for costly repairs. Presented are methods for testing <br />concrete slabs prior to the installation of a membrane system, <br />how to choose the right technology for protecting the parking <br />deck and what to expect from a proper installation. <br />• Understand how to evaluate the negative effects of <br />excess moisture in concrete on traffic deck systems. <br />• Understand the need for concrete repair and pre-testing <br />of concrete decks prior to the installation of traffic <br />coatings. <br />• Understand how to save the owner money with chemical <br />cure systems for fast return to service. <br />• Understand how to repair and restore concrete decks, <br />mitigate excess moisture, and choose the most cost <br />effective traffic coating system.</p> <p>Schedule Today!</p> <p>Contact your local Aquafin sales representative <br />or send an email to marketing@aquafin.net</p> <p>AQUAFIN provides high performance waterproofing and protective coatings, crystalline admixtures, concrete restoration <br />systems, moisture vapor mitigation resins, self-leveling underlayments, chemical injection grouts and a high performance <br />traffic deck system to protect and preserve all types of concrete, masonry and brick structures. <br />AQUAFIN is committed to bringing customers: <br />• Innovative products of outstanding quality <br />• Continuous product improvement through research and development <br />• Top-quality technical assistance, customer service and educational programs <br />• Product safety and environmental compatibility</p> <p>032020ek</p> <p>AQUAFIN, Inc. <br />Triumph Industrial Park <br />505 Blue Ball Rd., #160 <br />Elkton, MD 21921 <br />Toll Free: 1-866-AQUAFIN <br />web: www.aquafin.net <br />Aquafin, Inc. is a member <br />of the SCHOMBURG Group</p>
