Project: Marina Limassol, garage, Cyprus
Investor: Themeliotechniki, Cyprus
Works: repair of floor and wall hydro insulation (Sikaplan foil)

State of the structure: reinforced concrete structure d=30.0 to 90.0 cm, visible water leaks (salty, aggressive with a lot of chloride) in the areas of concrete extensions (wall and floor joints and dilatations). During the construction phase Sikaplan foil was embedded and injection ports derived for repairs.

The process of restoration: injection of Euras Gel type B was performed according to the plan of repair in the areas where the presence of water in injection tubes was observed. Unlike the Sika polyacril gel type 305 repair materials, Euras gel has consequently displaced the entire captured water in the concrete-insulation area. Following the waterways the gel often skipped built-in waterstop strips. It followed the water and its paths until complete elimination. This resulted in the gradual drying of all water stains on the garage floor.

More than 12,000 kg of Euras Gel was embedded. At the same time that shows how many cavities filled with aggressive water exists in seemingly quality concrete in the areas of wall and floor hydro insulation.
