WATERPROOFING MATERIAL SCHEDULE & SPECIFICATIONS
ELASTOMERIC CEMENTITIOUS WATERPROOFING COATING SYSTEM
The elastomeric cementitious waterproofing coating system shall be “Brushbond FLXIII” or

equivalent, a pre-packed polymer modified cementitious coating specifically for concrete and masonry
surface at a minimum thickness of 0.5mm per coat for two coats. The waterproof system shall also be
incorporated with a “Fosroc Butyl SA non-woven tape” or equivalent from the same waterproofing
supplier for the joints between dry wall/block wall to concrete interface as details below.
The waterproofing must be applied by specialist applicator as approved by the supplier. The material
o
shall not be applied at an application temperature below 5 C.
The waterproof coating shall be compatible with any subsequent tile adhesive or cement sand
mortar, without necessary addition of wire mesh reinforcement or additional cement sand render.
The waterproofing must be applied by specialist applicator as approved by the supplier.
The waterproof coating shall have the following typical properties:

APPLICATION SPECIFICATION
Surface Preparation
All preparatory work shall be carried out strictly in accordance with the published data of the
manufacturer. All surfaces that are to receive the waterproofing coating must be free from oil, grease,
wax, dirt or any other form of foreign matter, which might affect adhesion. Concrete or screed
surfaces shall be a light steel trowel finish. All damaged areas shall be made good to the satisfaction
of the Engineer prior to the commencement of the waterproofing work.
Mixing
The liquid concentrate shall be poured from the plastic container into the metal drum supplied and
mixed mechanically with a slow speed drill 350 – 450 rpm. Add the power component gradually
to the liquid avoiding lump formation and mix for 4 – 5 minutes until a smooth consistent mix is
achieved. Use the material within the recommended pot life.
WP/2
Application
The substrates, which are to receive the waterproofing coating, shall be dampened with clean
water. Sweep excess water to avoid ponding on horizontal areas. Apply the properly mixed
waterproof coating with a short and bristle brush preferably 120 – 200 mm in width at theoretical of
0.5mm in one coat. An overall coating thickness of 1mm is required.
The first coat of the waterproofing coating should be allowed to dry for 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to
application of second coat of the waterproof coating as above.
For the shower wall areas, the waterproofing shall be applied up to the ceiling wall height, and
this application shall be extend outside the shower wall area for minimum 300mm.
For wall areas other than the shower areas, the waterproofing shall be end at 500mm height from the
concrete floor level.
Protection of Installed Waterproofing
For the installed waterproofing at the floor area, if the waterproofing after water testing are not to be
covered by screed or other finishes subsequently, then the waterproofing at the floor slab must be
protected from traffic by a protection board or a cement sand screed protection.
Joints between Dry wall/block wall to concrete interface
For any joints at the interface between block wall /dry wall to concrete, and the wall to wall junction
between dry wall or block wall to itself or to concrete wall, the interface shall be reinforced by applying
one coat of the cementitious waterproofing at the interface joint at 150mm width, allow to cure and
apply the “Fosroc Non-Woven Butyl Reinforcement Tape”or equivalent, The non-woven tape shall
be 80mm width and consist of a white fabric surface with a butyl backing grey adhesive surface and a
thickness of 0.8mm.
After the above treatment, then apply 2 coats of the cementitious waterproofing to the overall areas
as per above “Application” section.
Overlaying with cement sand render or screed
If waterproof coating is to be subsequently overlaid with cement sand render or screeding, it

should be primed with a Nitobond SBR slurry primer in accordance with the following procedures.
The waterproof surface should cleaned to become free of dirt, debris or grease, oil etc .The
waterproofing surface should be thoroughly soaked with clean water and any excess removed prior to
commencement. Prepare the Nitobond SBR slurry primer by mixing 1 volume of Nitobond SBR
primer to 1 volume of clean water and 3 volume of fresh cement. To obtain a smooth consistency,
the cement should be blended slowly into the premixed liquids. The slurry primer should be stirred
frequently during use to offset settlement. Apply the slurry primer to the substrate. Avoid apply too
thickly and avoid ‘puddling’.
Apply the rendering onto the wet slurry primer. If the slurry primer dries before application of the
rendering, the slurry primer must be removed and the area reprimed before continuing.
Inspection
After completion of each section of work, and prior to water testing or application of subsequent
finishes, the waterproofed areas shall be inspected for error and damage. The Main Contractor shall
ensure that any areas damaged during installation of the cementitious coating are repaired to the
satisfaction of the Engineer and strictly in accordance with the manufacturer’s printed literature.
