    Supercast SW20 is a swellable waterstop used for sealing construction joints in cast in-situ concrete where access is limited. It swells upon contact with water to create pressure against the concrete joint, preventing water passage. The waterstop is made of synthetic elastomers unaffected by wet/dry cycling. It can integrate with PVC waterstops using connectors. Supercast SW20 expands up to 300% to seal against hydraulic pressures up to 100 meters. It is installed by bonding, nailing or casting into joints to seal non-moving joints in new or existing concrete.

    Swellable waterstops for in-situ concrete

    because of limited access.
    The Supercast SW20 is a swellable waterstop which can be
    Convenient and problem solving in situations where a installed and positively linked into conventional Supercast
    conventional waterstop would require complex shuttering PVC waterstop networks.

    Typical uses include secant piled and diaphragm walled This allows the use of Supercast PVC for expansion joints

    Design criteria
    PVC range
    Swelling properties unaffected by long term wet/dry cycling Supercast SW20 should be used to prevent the passage of
    water through non-movement joints in both new in-situ concrete
    Tolerant of salts present in concrete and groundwater
    and between new and existing concrete. Supercast SW20
    Sustains effective seal in wet conditions
    increases in volume in the range of up to 300% and gives a
    resistance to hydraulic heads of up to 100 metres.

    Swelling of Supercast SW20 in fresh concrete is minimal


    and most of the volume swell takes place after the initial
    setting of the concrete has taken place.

    Supercast SW20 is suitable for application between existing


    and newly placed concrete where there is little or no steel
    continuity and therefore some small movement may occur.

    Supercast SW20 waterstops should be positioned to ensure


    that a minimum of 70 mm cover of concrete is present to
    accommodate pressure developed during the swelling
    process.

    Precautions

    Health and safety

    There are no health hazards associated with Supercast SW20


    in normal use.

    Ancillary materials

    Supercast SW20 Connector

    A Supercast SW20 component moulded in water swellable


    elastomeric. It is designed to connect with Supercast
    Hydrofoil, Supercast Watafoil, and Supercast Rearguard
    profiles. This connector provides a method of ensuring and
    maintaining the integrity of a waterstop network, for example,
    when expansion joints occur.

    The connector is push fitted around the outer bulb of the


    Supercast PVC waterstop. It is then bonded to the concrete
    and jointed to the rest of the Supercast SW20 strip.

    Supercast SW Adaptor

    This adaptor has been developed to solve the problem of


    fixing a waterstop to a diaphragm, or secant piled wall.

    The Supercast SW Adaptor combines a water swellable


    material and a PVC profile. It provides a method of
    continuously jointing Supercast SW with Supercast
    Rearguard ‘R’ at right angles to each other in the same plane.
    Such junctions occur between diaphragm or secant piled
    walls, pile caps and floor slabs.

    The use of Supercast SW Adaptor simplifies the forming of


    these critical junctions. Site welding of the Supercast SW
    Adaptor to the Supercast PVC, followed by butt jointing to the
    existing SW strips is all that is necessary. This provides a
    positive connection between the two systems. It eliminates
    reliance on site workmanship to make complex junctions
    with epoxy or cementitious mortars.
