The use of factory
formed details is always recommended in line with good building practice.
If the puncture of the membrane system by service entries or steelworks
cannot be avoided, these areas should be sealed with propriety factory
formed units.
Alderprufe Holdfast
A tying system for
fixing gas protective membrane to the underside of concrete slabs when
future subsidence of the prepared ground is anticipated.
The concrete displacing
itself around 'T' bar sections. In the event of ground subsidence, the
'T' sections are fixed to ensure the membrane remains fixed with no
possibility of failure due to rupture.
Alderseal
Gastite Mastic
Developed
for sealing around cable ducts, conduits, service pipe entries and reinforcing
bars against gas and water ingress.
It
is possible for gas and water to track up and along cable, duct and
steel bar penetrations of the membrane. Alderseal Gastite Mastic has
been developed to solve the problems of sealed collar systems on small
diameter penetration.
It
has British Telecom type approval and meets the requirements of British
Gas for sealing services.
