Compartmentalised Membrane System
High performance, crack-bridging and fully controlled. Highly flexible waterproofing systems using Sikaplan® PVC-P or FPO based sheet waterproofing membranes are installed externally and cover the entire basement structure in contact with the ground. The waterproofing layer is divided into ‘compartments’ with a network of cast in place compatible waterstops that are welded to the membrane.
This allows very significant reduction of risk in the event of any leaks (e.g. from damage to the membrane). The position of the leak is easy to locate by the control and injection sockets and remedial action (i.e. injection) can be taken to ensure continued watertightness and concrete protection of the system at any time during its service life.
Sikaplan® systems are used extensively in heavy civil engineering situations or where highly aggressive conditions prevail.
Sikaplan® WP/WT Membranes
Sikaplan® WP/WT Applications
Sikaplan® WP1100 - Homogeneous and plasticized PVC sheet waterproofing membranes and gas-tight barriers for general use, loose laid with the membrane overlaps connected by heat welding.
Sikaplan® WT 1200 - FPO sheet waterproofing membranes and gas-tight barriers for use against aggressive groundwater, loose laid with the membrane overlaps connected by heat welding.
Cast-in-place external waterstops, based on PVC or FPO, connected with similar based sheet waterproofing membranes by heat welding, for compartmentalized waterproofing systems.
Preformed pieces based on PVC or FPO, connected with flexible injection pipes to allow access to compartments for the control of watertightness and injection in the event of leaks.
Cast-in-place external waterstops, based on PVC or FPO, connected with similar based sheet waterproofing membranes by heat welding, for compartmentalized waterproofing systems.
Sikaplan® WT Tape 200
Adhesive sealing tape based on FPO, compatible with Sikaplan WT sheet membranes for waterproofing the terminations of post-applied compartment systems.
Sika® Dilatec E/ER
Adhesive sealing tapes based on plasticized PVC, compatible to Sikaplan WP sheet membranes for water proofing terminations of post applied compartment systems.
