Office building complex situated along the Thames River, next to the Tower of London.
The underground tunnels were constructed with precast pipes and cast in place concrete using conventional waterproofing systems. Hundreds of leaks occurred through cracks and joint locations where rubber gaskets were failing.
Leaking cracks reached lengths of five feet (1.5 meter), providing passage for steady flows of water up to two gallons per minute!
Kryton’s Krystol Crack Repair System (including Krystol T1/T2) was installed from the inside (negative side) against the water pressure to eliminate water entry.
Krystol products are free of unsafe fumes and ideal in wet and enclosed, tight areas.
To date the leaks have been stopped and the project is successful.
Krystol T1 is a surface applied crystalline slurry treatment that transforms new or existing concrete into a permanent waterproofing barrier.
As part of the Krystol Leak Repair System, Krystol Plug is a rapid-setting hydraulic cement product that when mixed with water is used to stop flowing water and repair leaking cracks, holes and joints in concrete.
The Krystol Leak Repair System is a permanent crystalline waterproofing solution used for repairing leaking cracks, holes and joints found in concrete. It reliably stops high water flow, even under high-hydrostatic pressure, and outperforms injection systems. Repairing leaks is a simple 3-step process that involves…
