Triton SystemsTriton TT Admix Watertight Concrete SystemIntroduction and general guidelines

1. IntroductionTriton has developed a watertight concrete system comprising an in depth-crystalline waterproofing admixture and hydrophilic waterstops and mastics for construction joints. This enables the construction of a watertight concrete structure in accordance with BS 8102 type B form of construction and waterproofing.

Along with quality products, Triton offers full system back up, including liaison with the concrete batching plant, mix design, construction joint detailing, site monitoring, repairs and warranty (where required).

For full information and support please read product data sheets attached and/or contact Triton’s technical department on 01322 318830 or visit Triton’s website www.tritonsystems.com.

2. TT AdmixA unique chemical treatment for the waterproofing and protection of concrete, which is added to concrete at time of batching. The active chemicals in the TT Admix react with fresh concrete to generate insoluble crystalline growths, that seal the concrete against water penetration and protect the concrete against harsh environmental conditions.

TT Admix will:

■ Withstand extreme hydrostatic pressure

■ Increase durability

■ Reduce shrinkage and cracking

■ Protect concrete and steel from aggressive chemicals such as chlorides

■ Seal static cracks to designed crack widths ( 0.3mm)

TT Admix is added to concrete at time of batching in dry powder form (see attached concrete batching details) at a rate of 1.17% by weight of cement.

0972 06/15

3. Concrete Mix RequirementsThe concrete mix requirements for optimum performance of the TT Admix requires a minimum cement content of 350kgs/m³. The preference is for CEM1 (OPC), although a PFA* blend with a maximum 20% PFA content may be used. The maximum water cement ratio is 0.45.

To aid compaction we would recommend concrete be designed and supplied at an S3 consistence class (or higher).

For reference the use of GGBS (ground granulated blast furnace slag) is not permitted.

TT Admix: Alkali content 9.51% by weight of TT Admix.

Total Chlorine % <0.02%. Water soluble Chloride % < 0.03%.

A COPY OF THE CONCRETE MIX DESIGN MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL BY TRITON SYSTEMS PRIOR TO CONCRETE WORKS COMMENCING.

4. BatchingTT Admix is supplied in soluble sachets, which are added to the concrete at time of batching, these should be added with the initial water and some of the aggregate at the beginning of the batching process. For full details please refer to TT Admix data sheet and batching details attached.

5. Construction JointsTriton TT Waterstop and TT Swellseal Mastic are used in all construction joints within the concrete structure.

A 10mm x 25mm minimum groove to be created into the concrete at joint line to accommodate the TT Waterstop and TT Swellseal Mastic. This is to ensure that the detail does not move during the concrete pour.

The TT Swellseal Mastic is applied into the groove, at approximately 4 linear metres per 310ml cartridge to adhere the TT Waterstop. For full installation and application details please refer to product data sheets and drawing no. TT005.1 attached.

TT Waterstop is supplied as a 20mm x 25mm pre-formed waterstop in a ready to use roll. It has a built in delay system and the product activates after 2 days of exposure to water. Once activated, it will withstand up to 40m head of water pressure. Due to the expansive forces exerted by the waterstop, a minimum concrete cover of 50mm is required.

TT Swellseal Mastic is a one part ready to use hydro reactive expansion sealant for waterproofing joints in construction and to adhere TT Waterstop. It is supplied in 300ml cartridges and 600ml foil sausages.

NB: THE USE OF TT WATERSTOP AND TT SWELLSEAL MASTIC IS A CRITICAL PART OF THE TT ADMIX WATERTIGHT CONCRETE SYSTEM AND MUST BE INCLUDED.

0972 06/15

6. Service Entry SealingAll service entry details and penetrations to the TT Admix concrete must be waterproofed using the TT Waterstop and/or TT Swellseal Mastic as indicated in drawing no.TT007.1 attached.

7. Placement & CuringNormal practices for the placement, compaction and curing of concrete should be followed as laid out in all relevant standards and in accordance with good concreting practice.

We would advise that concrete should not be poured or pumped from a height greater than 3.5m, to minimise the potential for aggregate segregation.

To aid compaction we would recommend concrete designed and supplied at S3 consistence class or higher.

Standard concrete practices to be adhered to with reference to ambient conditions at time of placement and appropriate curing regimes must be implemented, these should also be recorded on site monitoring records.

8. Optimum pour sizesWalls: Aspect ratios should not exceed 3:1 unless it has been agreed with the structural engineer.

Floor Slabs: The pour sizes should follow current guidelines in Construct – National Specification. Typically this is 400m2.

9. Minimum wall and slab thicknessThis is the responsibility of the structural engineer, but we would generally advise a minimum 200mm to allow installation of the joint waterstops and allow adequate concrete cover.

10. MonitoringAll works should be subject to appropriate supervision by a representative of the client / contractor, who is responsible for maintaining records and photographs of the installation. Triton will monitor the whole process including concrete batching, placement, curing, construction joint detailing and repair. To facilitate this, the contractor to supply pour schedule and to advise Triton Systems of forthcoming pours with adequate notice - preferably 48 hours minimum.

In the event of the Triton Systems representative being unavailable, all records must be kept by the appointed representative of the contractor / client.

The following are minimum requirements for completion of records, failure to record adequate details may affect the provision of the warranty for the system:

• Date• Ambient conditions• Pour location • Pour size• RMC delivery docket numbers• Inspection/ confirmation and photographs of joint detailing• Cracks, voids, honeycombing – location• Repair recommendations• Repair completion dates

11. RepairsTriton Systems is solely responsible for product performance, the contractor is responsible for repairs in relation to poor workmanship such as voids, honeycombing etc. Defects owing to poor workmanship should be logged on site records along with confirmation of repairs being carried out.

Triton manufactures a range of compatible repair products and systems and any areas of honeycombing, voids or cracks should be repaired in accordance with TT Admix concrete repair details attached, and in accordance with the product data sheets for these products.

Alternate methods of repair such as resin injection can be used but please advise Triton Systems for verification prior to commencement.

Triton SystemsTriton TT Admix Watertight Concrete SystemHoneycomb and Construction Joint Remedial Measures

1. IntroductionFollowing the placement, curing and compaction of the Triton TT Super Admix watertight concrete, upon removal of the formwork and exposing of the placed concrete, a visual inspection is required. If honeycombing or leaks to the construction joints are identified then the following remedial measures should be carried out:

2. Areas of Honeycombed ConcreteAny loose, friable concrete should be removed from the area, taking it back to a sound concrete base.

A liberal single coat application of Triton TT Super in depth crystalline waterproofer to be applied to the area.

Whilst the TT Super application is still “green”, Triton Fillet Seal, mixed as per data sheet, should be applied to the whole area to re-profile the concrete. This may need to be built up in layers depending on the depth required.

Following application of the Triton Fillet Seal, apply two further coats of the Triton TT Super slurry, extending beyond the area of repair by a minimum of 150mm.

3. Construction Joint RepairsThe construction joint should be chased out to create a minimum depth and width of 50mm to joint.

Where liquid water is seeping through joint, this should be plugged using Triton Quick Set plugging compound (TQS) as per details on attached data sheet.

Once leak has been stopped, apply a liberal application to the joint area of Triton TT Super.

Re-profile chased joint using Triton Fillet Seal, application as per attached Fillet Seal data sheet.

Overcoat the repaired joint with two coats of Triton TT Super, extending a minimum of 150mm to either side of joint.

4. Shutter Tie HolesRoughen the cleared concrete surface of shutter tie hole by appropriate means.

Apply single coat of TT Super to roughened surface.

Re-profile to flush with Triton Repair Mortar or Fillet Seal.

Apply two coats TT Super to repair and minimum 150mm to concrete surround.





0972 06/15

Triton SystemsTriton TT Admix Watertight Concrete SystemTypes of cracks in concrete

1. Thermal cracksThese are caused by temperate rise, particularly in mass concrete, created by the heat of hydration. As the interior concrete increases in temperature and expands, the surface may be cooling and contracting thus causing tensile stress that may result in thermal cracks at the surface.

2. Drying shrinkage cracksAs most concrete mixes contain more water than actually required for the hydration process, the remaining water evaporates causing the concrete to shrink. Restraint to shrinkage causes tensile stresses to develop in the hardened concrete. Restraint to drying shrinkage is the most common cause of cracking in concrete.

3. Plastic shrinkage cracksThese are caused when the evaporation of water from the surface of freshly placed concrete is faster than it is replaced by bleed water, thus causing the surface to shrink. Due to restraint from the underlying concrete, tensile stresses develop in the weak plastic surface concrete resulting in shallow cracks of varying widths and depths.

Triton TT Admix

DescriptionTriton TT Admix is a unique chemical treatment for the waterproofing and protection of concrete. This admix is specially designed as a concrete additive at the time of batching.

IntroductionPacked as a dry powder compound, Triton TT Admix consists of Portland cement, very fine treated silica sand and various active proprietary chemicals. The active chemicals react with the moisture in the fresh concrete and the by-products of cement hydration causing a catalytic reaction that generates a non-soluble crystalline formation of dendritic fibres throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete. Thus the concrete itself becomes sealed against the penetration of water or liquid, protecting the concrete from the deterioration effect of harsh environmental conditions.

Characteristics1. Maximizes waterproofness of concrete

2. Will withstand extreme hydrostatic pressure.

3. Exceptional durability.

4. Reduces shrinkage and cracking.

5. Protection of concrete against certain aggressive chemicals including chloride attack to steel reinforcing.

6. Improves workability of concrete.

7. Allows passage of air and water vapour.

8. Cost effective.

Concrete Mix Requirements: (See additional information sheet) ■ For purposes of warranties, minimum cement content 350kg/m³

■ Water: Cement ratio – 0.45 (max 0.5)

0885 09/14

Directions for useFor waterproofing concrete the recommended addition rate for Triton TT Admix is 1.2% by weight of cement. For enhanced chemical resistance please consult with Tritons Technical Services to determine the approximate addition rate. Triton TT Admix is added to the concrete at the time of batching. The sequence of procedures for addition will vary according to the type of batch plant operation and equipment.

1. Ready Mix Plant – Dry Batch OperationAdd Triton TT Admix in powder form to the drum of the ready-mix truck. Drive the truck under the batch plant and add 60% – 70% of the required water along with 140kg – 230kg of aggregate. Mix the materials for 2-3 minutes to ensure the Triton TT Admix is distributed evenly throughout the mix water. Add the balance of materials to the ready-mix truck in accordance with standard batch practices.

2. Ready Mix Plant – Central Mix OperationMix Triton TT Admix with water to form a very thin slurry (e.g. 6kg – 8kg lb. of powder mixed with 10 litres of water). Pour the required amount of material into the drum of the ready-mix truck. The aggregate, cement and water should be batched and mixed in the plant in accordance with standard practices (taking into account the quantity of water that has already been placed in the ready-mix truck). Pour the concrete into the truck and mix for at least 5 minutes to ensure even distribution of the Triton TT Admix throughout the concrete.

3. Precast Batch Plant – Pan MixerAdd Triton TT Admix to the rock and sand, then mix thoroughly for 2-3 minutes before adding the cement and water. The total concrete mass should be blended using standard practices.

NOTE: It is important to obtain a homogeneous mixture of Triton TT Admix with the concrete. Therefore, do not add dry Triton TT Admix powder directly to wet concrete as this may cause clumping and thorough dispersion will not occur.

For further information regarding the property use of Triton TT Admix for a specific project, consult with a Triton technical representative.

Triton Swellseal Mastic

Field of ApplicationTriton Swellseal Mastic is used for:

■ Sealing rough and smooth construction joints of in-situ cast concrete.

■ Sealing joints between pre-cast segments (e.g. manholes, box culverts, cable ducts and pipes).

■ Sealing around steel H-beams.

■ Sealing between rough surfaces (e.g. slurry walls) and concrete slabs.

■ Bonding strip sealants to rough surfaces.

■ Sealing around bolt spacers and void formers.

■ On secant pile walls

Application ■ Solvent free.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic can be applied to concrete, PVC, HDPE, steel, etc.

■ The excellent filling and adhesion properties of the product provide a first line filling of cracks and voids, even on lightly humid, smooth or rough surfaces.

■ In contact with water Triton Swellseal Mastic will expand to about 350% of its original volume.

■ Flexible system, which adapts to the irregular surface of the substrate.

■ Easy application with standard caulking gun.

■ Durable: will exceed the construction’s life.

■ Has a good all-round chemical resistance* and can resist to petroleum, mineral and vegetable oils and greases.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is approved for contact with potable water.

Description ■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is a one-component, polyurethane based, solvent free, hydroswelling mastic, supplied in

cartridges and aluminium sausages, for the sealing of construction joints and around pipe penetrations.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic cures and swells in the presence of moisture. Curing time depends on temperature and humidity conditions, i.e. curing time will reduce if RH and C° are higher. Triton Swellseal Mastic will become firm in 24-36 hours. Performance is not affected by the curing time.

Application

1. Precautions ■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is preferably applied onto a dust-free concrete surface.

■ The surface can be rough or smooth, moist or dry.

■ Installation during heavy rain or in prolonged contact with water results in a premature swelling of the strip, which should be avoided.

■ Preferably the mastic should cure for 24 hours before pouring concrete.

■ Despite the fact that Triton Swellseal Mastic has a very good adherence to the concrete, care must be taken, as with all products of this type, not to pour the concrete directly on the product to avoid damaging of the applied sealant.

0885 09/14

2. Application Method ■ For 310cc cartridges

■ Break the moisture proofing aluminium foil on the top of the cartridge and remove the seamer from the bottom. Cut the nozzles diagonally at the appropriate position. Place the cartridge into caulking gun.

■ For 600cc sausages

■ Put the sausage in the empty tube of the caulking gun and cut 1 cm off the top of the sausage. Close the tube and install the nozzle. Cut the nozzle diagonally at the appropriate position.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is applied with a caulking gun in an uninterrupted band (minimum 10 mm wide and high), in the middle of the joint or prefab element. Concrete cover should be at least 7 cm on both sides, in order to avoid cracks from the expansion pressure of swelling Triton Swellseal Mastic.

Triton Swellseal Mastic

Field of ApplicationTriton Swellseal Mastic is used for:

■ Sealing rough and smooth construction joints of in-situ cast concrete.

■ Sealing joints between pre-cast segments (e.g. manholes, box culverts, cable ducts and pipes).

■ Sealing around steel H-beams.

■ Sealing between rough surfaces (e.g. slurry walls) and concrete slabs.

■ Bonding strip sealants to rough surfaces.

■ Sealing around bolt spacers and void formers.

■ On secant pile walls

Application ■ Solvent free.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic can be applied to concrete, PVC, HDPE, steel, etc.

■ The excellent filling and adhesion properties of the product provide a first line filling of cracks and voids, even on lightly humid, smooth or rough surfaces.

■ In contact with water Triton Swellseal Mastic will expand to about 100% of its original volume.

■ Flexible system, which adapts to the irregular surface of the substrate.

■ Easy application with standard caulking gun.

■ Durable: will exceed the construction’s life.

■ Has a good all-round chemical resistance* and can resist to petroleum, mineral and vegetable oils and greases.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is approved for contact with potable water.

Description ■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is a one-component, polyurethane based, solvent free, hydroswelling mastic, supplied in

cartridges and aluminium sausages, for the sealing of construction joints and around pipe penetrations.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic cures and swells in the presence of moisture. Curing time depends on temperature and humidity conditions, i.e. curing time will reduce if RH and C° are higher. Triton Swellseal Mastic will become firm in 24-36 hours. Performance is not affected by the curing time.

Application

1. Precautions ■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is preferably applied onto a dust-free concrete surface.

■ The surface can be rough or smooth, moist or dry.

■ Installation during heavy rain or in prolonged contact with water results in a premature swelling of the strip, which should be avoided.

■ Preferably the mastic should cure for 24 hours before pouring concrete.

■ Despite the fact that Triton Swellseal Mastic has a very good adherence to the concrete, care must be taken, as with all products of this type, not to pour the concrete directly on the product to avoid damaging of the applied sealant.

0885 09/14

2. Application Method ■ For 310cc cartridges

■ Break the moisture proofing aluminium foil on the top of the cartridge and remove the seamer from the bottom. Cut the nozzles diagonally at the appropriate position. Place the cartridge into caulking gun.

■ For 600cc sausages

■ Put the sausage in the empty tube of the caulking gun and cut 1 cm off the top of the sausage. Close the tube and install the nozzle. Cut the nozzle diagonally at the appropriate position.

■ Triton Swellseal Mastic is applied with a caulking gun in an uninterrupted band (minimum 10 mm wide and high), in the middle of the joint or prefab element. Concrete cover should be at least 7 cm on both sides, in order to avoid cracks from the expansion pressure of swelling Triton Swellseal Mastic.

Triton TT Waterstop25mm x 20mm

IntroductionTriton TT Waterstop is a preformed waterstop consisting of sodium bentonite and butyl rubber and it swells up to 350% when in contact with water. When fully encapsulated by poured concrete, the expansive forces form a seal against concrete surfaces. This seal resists hydrostatic pressure, stopping water from entering the sub-structures. Triton TT Waterstop is able to withstand a 40 metre head of pressure. As with any hydrophilic waterstop, Triton TT Waterstop will return to its original size if the concrete and substrate is completely dry and no more moisture is present. If water or moisture is introduced again to the joints, Triton TT Waterstop will re-expand to seal the potential leaking joints.

Characteristics1. Service life is indefinite with excellent resistance to acid & alkaline condition.

2. East installation and extruded in rectangular shapes for optimal adhesion during application.

3. Permanent water-tight function.

Triton TT Waterstop has a built-in delay system thus the waterstop will activate approximately after 2 days of constant exposure to water.

Limitations ■ Triton TT Waterstop should not be used for expansion joints or subject to repetitive movements.

■ Triton TT Waterstop should not be installed with less than 50mm of concrete cover to ensure that the pressure arising from the swelling action is accommodated.

Triton Injection Tube

DescriptionTriton Injection Tube is designed for waterproofing construction joints in new and old structures. Triton Injection Tube has been designed specifically for the multiple injection of suitable grouts into construction joints and other areas that may require injection at a later date.

Triton Injection Tube is constructed from a specially formulated plastic with special slots, which prevent the infiltration of concrete water and laitance during casting but open when internal pressure is applied. Its flexible nature allows it to follow contours and should be placed in lengths of 10 metres (up to 30 metres if required).

Key Benefitsn Simple Installationn Can be injected with all known resinsn Repeated injection possiblen Can withstand up to 12 metres head of pressuren Can be installed up to 30 metre lengths

Typical Applicationsn Concrete construction jointsn Shotcrete interfacesn Basement waterproofingn Water tanksn Bund wallsn Pipe penetrations

Application GuidelinesTriton Injection Tube can be placed between the reinforcement bars or along the interface joints of concrete slabs. It is held in place using specially designed clips to ensure it remains in place even during concrete pouring.

The concrete base to which the tubing is fixed should be smooth and flat to ensure that the tube lays flat without any kinks that would interfere with the performance of the tube.

The tubing is then placed on the flat surface and fixed onto the concrete with clips at approximately 200 to 300mm centres throughout the required length. At either end of the hose, there are 200mm-500mm lengths of hose, these are colour coded blue and clear, this helps to identify where one length starts and the other end finishes. There are two alternative ways of forming the injection points. The standard way is for these lengths to be placed through the formwork to provide easy access when the injection work is required.

Cast in place

During Injection

After cleaning out Injection

The alternative is to use the shutter connector system.

Note: It is important that the Triton Injection Tube is placed flat to ensure correct installation, and must not be placed against reinforcement, does not cross ridges including other lengths of hose or itself and must not bridge gaps.

When placing the tube, ensure that it is placed consistently using the colour coding. This will make it easier when injecting the resin especially when the injection will be carried out at a much later date. When injecting, follow the flow of the resin to ensure thorough penetration is achieved.

Triton Fillet Seal

Description and UseA pre-packed cement based and polymer modified product for use as a floor to wall junction seal during waterproofing works when using cementitious slurry coatings (Triton TT55) and renders. In most circumstances Triton Fillet Seal need only be mixed with water for use. Where extra adhesion or flexibility are required, Triton SBR latex and Triton Tanking Mix Elastifier (T.T.M.E) may be uses respectively.

NOTE: Where water is leaking or seeping the use of Triton Quick Set is advised.

The use of Triton Fillet Seal helps to ensure a smooth transition between horizontal and vertical surfaces which minimizes the risk of leaving gaps or holes unsealed during the water proofing works.

PreparationSituations where the Triton Fillet Seal will be employed should already have been prepared in accordance with the slurry coating or render specification. In the majority of instances the Triton Fillet Seal will be applied onto the slurry coated surface as illustrated in FIG.1 below.

FIG.1

The Triton Fillet Seal becomes fully encapsulated within the layers of slurry coatings.

0885 09/14

Usage ■ Triton Fillet Seal normally needs only mixing with clean water before use.

■ Add sufficient water to make a cohesive, stiff mortar.

■ Ideally the Triton Fillet Seal should be applied to partly cured (green) slurry coating (Triton TT55) surfaces to maximize adhesion. If this is not possible make up the Triton Fillet Seal using a gauging solution composed of 1 part Triton SBR to 4 parts water (by volume).

■ Pre-wet the surface with the same solution just before applying the Triton Fillet Seal.

■ When excessive stress concentrations are expected at floor / wall joints the use of Triton T.T.M.E added to the mix is advised.

■ Triton T.T.M.E increases flexibility and should be added neat to Triton Fillet Seal until the required consistency is achieved.

■ The slurry coating (Triton TT55) under and overcoats should also contain Triton T.T.M.E.

■ NOTE: Only sound substrates suitable to be permanently sealed under a waterproofing system should be treated. Concrete, Brick, Stone, Render and Mortar in poor condition could deteriorate further when sealed inappropriately.

Application / Use ■ Wall / Wall and Wall / Floor joint sealing in conjunction with Triton TT55 waterproofing system.

■ As a “non shrink” repair mortar for concrete and as part of repair system for Triton TT Super Admix System.

Curing ■ Avoid rapid drying out, overcoat as soon as set (5-6 hours dependent on conditions) whenever possible.

■ Do not subject to running water until fully hardened (and overcoated).

Storage and Handling ■ Avoid breathing dust.

■ Wear gloves and eye protection.

■ Wash hands and exposed skin after use.

■ Must be stored in dry frost-free conditions.

■ If bags are stored correctly and unopened they will have shelf life for 12 months.

■ Packed in 25kg bags.

■ Minimum application temperature: 5°C.

■ Maximum application temperature: 30°C

Coverage ■ 15 – 20Lm (25mm x 25mm triangular fillet) per 25kg approximately.

WATERTIGHT CONCRETE BASEMENT FOR LUXURY WEMBLEY DEVELOPMENT

Two 20 storey buildings, one a hotel and the other a luxury residential

and commercial apartment block, have been constructed a stone’s

throw from London’s Wembley Stadium. Triton was appointed by main

contractor, Donban Construction, to supply a watertight concrete

system (comprising type B method of waterproofing as defined in

BS 8102 2009) for the large underground car park which will serve

both buildings.

The watertight basement measures 80m x 70m x 4.5m deep and is

constructed from 2,000m3 of concrete incorporating Triton’s Super

Admix to form the ring beam – which can be seen in the photograph

sitting on top of contiguous piles – the floor slab and the concrete

liner wall.

Triton Super Admix is a specialist chemical treatment for the

waterproofing and protection of concrete – designed to be used as an

admix at the time of batching. The active chemicals react with fresh

concrete to generate a non-soluble crystalline formation which seals

the concrete itself against the penetration of water or liquid, inhibiting

the ingress of water through small cracks, shrinkage etc. and protecting

it from the deterioration effect of harsh environmental conditions.

Triton’s technical team worked closely with concrete suppliers, Cemex,

and recommended a dosage rate of 4.1kg of TT Super Admix per 3m3

of concrete. Triton continued to provide support and advice to the

main contractor and concreting sub contractor (JNC Utilities) as the

job progressed.

Triton TT Waterstop (a water bar) and Triton TT Swellseal Mastic, was

applied to all concrete construction joints and concrete interfaces.

The application of these products was also overseen by Triton’s

technical team who monitored and recorded the application of every

waterproofing element of the basement’s construction up to ground

level prior to providing a warranty on the system.

TT ADMIX SPECIFIED FOR MAJOR NEW BUILD CONSTRUCTION

Triton has supplied 3,280 kg of TT Admix, its BBA certified concrete

waterproofing system, to a prestigious new build project in West

London. The project is a new car dealership situated between the M4

flyover and the site of Brentford FC’s new stadium. The construction

comprises a watertight concrete base slab with welded sheet piled walls

and a watertight concrete capping beam to provide a Type B integral

waterproofing solution to BS8102:2009. On top of the slab is a steel

framed structure.

TT Admix was specified following discussions between Triton and main

contractors, Harringtons Builders Plc, who were impressed by Triton’s

site inspection regime and the company’s ability to cover all aspects

of waterproofing, not just watertight concrete, under one technical

viewpoint and one warranty.

800 4.1kg bags of TT Admix were supplied on completion of the job,

around 120 of which were for the capping beam. The concrete was

supplied by Quattro Readymix at a dose of one 4.1kg bag of TT Admix

per m3 of concrete. The base slab was completed in three pours and

the capping beam completed in four pours.

All the construction joints for the watertight concrete slab pours were

waterproofed using Triton’s standard detail with Triton TT Waterstop held

in place with Triton TT Swellseal Mastic. The installation was inspected

by Triton’s team for warranty purposes before any concrete was poured.

The construction joint between the watertight concrete slab and the

sheet piled wall was waterproofed in the same way.

Triton produced a number of non-standard drawings for this project to

fit the customer’s design to show the waterproofing recommendations,

including proposals for the sheet piled wall intersection and for the

capping beam.

4.5 The use of the product with an air-entraining agent is not covered by this Certificate.

5 Practicability of installationThe product can be placed, compacted and cured by operatives with experience of conventional concreting methods and equipment.

6 Water penetration and absorption6.1 Concrete containing the product has greater resistance to water penetration and water absorption than an equivalent plain concrete.

6.2 Tests conducted on a concrete containing the product at an addition rate of 1.17% by weight cement in the mixture with a maximum water/cement of 0.45, showed a water permeability(1) of 3.35 x 10–13 m·s–1 compared to 3.74 x 10–13 m·s–1 for the control concrete

6.3 Tests conducted on a concrete containing the product at an addition rate of 1.17% by weight cement in the mixture with a maximum water/cement of 0.45, showed a capillary absorption(1) of 48%* by mass of the control concrete at 7 days and 46%* by mass of control at 90 days.(1) The specific effect of the product on these properties for a particular mix and site conditions should be evaluated through site trials prior to use.

7 Water vapour permeability7.1 Concrete containing the product has a lower permeability by water vapour than that of an equivalent plain concrete. For specific cases, advice should be sought from the Certificate holder.

7.2 Tests conducted on concrete containing the product at an addition rate of 1.75 kg m–3 showed a water vapour permeability(1) of 667 x 10–12 g·m (N·s)–1 compared to 757 x 10–12 g·m (N·s)–1 for the control concrete.(1) The specific effect of the product on these properties for a particular mix and site conditions should be evaluated through site trials prior to use.

7.3 Concrete made with a high water/cement ratio can have a water vapour permeability greater than 3000 x 10–12 g·m (N·s)–1. The permeability of concrete is strongly dependent on the exact mix design and the figures given in section 7.2 indicate the levels that can be obtained using the product.

of 8

7.4 The appropriate thickness for concrete with a specific permeability to achieve a water vapour resistance of 200 MN·s·g–1 or 550 MN·s·g–1(1) (suitable for BS 8102 : 2009, Grade 3) is given by:

for 200 MN·s·g–1 t = 0.2 x 1012 x pfor 550 MN·s·g–1 t = 0.55 x 1012 x p

where: t = concrete thickness (mm) p = water vapour permeability [g·m(N·s)–1] (from BS 3177 : 1959 test).(1) This figure may be used where a high resistance to water vapour is required.

8 Reinforcement protection8.1 The high alkalinity required to prevent corrosion of the reinforcement (pH >13) will not be adversely affected by the incorporation of the product into concrete.

8.2 Corrosion of reinforcement is normally caused by the ingress of chloride to the steel or by the reduction in alkalinity of the concrete by the diffusion of carbon dioxide. The reduced water permeability of concrete containing the product will slow down diffusion of chloride into the concrete and so give improved protection against reinforcement corrosion.

9 Mechanical properties9.1 The compressive strength of concrete containing the product is similar to that of an equivalent plain concrete with the same consistence.

9.2 The flexural strength of concrete containing the product is similar to that of an equivalent plain concrete. For specific cases, advice should be sought from the Certificate holder.

9.3 The static modulus of elasticity of concrete containing the product is similar to that of an equivalent plain concrete.

9.4 The effect of the product on the mechanical properties of concrete designed to BS EN 480-1 : 2006 is shown in Table 2.

12 Carbonation resistanceConcrete containing the product has a similar resistance to carbon dioxide diffusion to that of an equivalent plain concrete.

13 Frost resistanceConcrete containing the product has a similar resistance to freeze/thaw resistance to that of an equivalent plain concrete.

14 Sulfate resistanceThe lower permeability of concrete containing the product reduces the ingress of sulfates. However, if sulfate-resistant concrete is required, the advice of the Certificate holder should be sought.

15 Alkali/silica reaction (ASR)15.1 Concrete containing the product should be designed in accordance with BS EN 206-1 : 2000, section 5.2.3.4, and BS 8500-2 : 2006, section 5.2.

15.2 The sodium oxide equivalent of the product, when measured in accordance with BS EN 480-12 : 2005, was 9.51% by mass of admixture. The Certificate holder’s declared value of <10.4% should be used when calculating the contribution of the product to the total alkali content of a given concrete mix. In turn, this can be used to assess the susceptibility of that concrete to alkali/silica reaction.

16 Resistance to leachingUse of the product reduces the leaching of lime from the hydrated cement in the concrete.

17 MaintenanceFor a specific installation, a maintenance regime should be considered to ensure that the required design life of the concrete in which the product is incorporated is achieved.

18 Durability18.1 Under normal conditions of service, concrete containing the product is more durable than an equivalent plain concrete owing to its reduced capillary absorption.

18.2 Where exposure to aggressive soil conditions or chemicals is anticipated, a full assessment of the site should be made. In these situations, the Certificate holder should be consulted on the suitability of the concrete.

Installation

19 General19.1 When used in concrete, Triton TT Super Admix enhances durability and improves protection against reinforcement corrosion, by providing a concrete with reduced permeability that protects it against water ingress via hydrostatic pressure.

19.2 Use of the product will produce a concrete with properties relative to a control of:• reduced porosity • reduced capillary absorption• increased water resistance • increased corrosion resistance.

19.3 Structures built incorporating the product should be designed to the relevant sections of BS 8102 : 2009, BS EN 1992-1-1 : 2004, BS EN 1992-1-2 : 2004 and BS EN 1992-3 : 2006.

19.4 Concrete containing the product is suitable for Type B protection as described in BS 8102 : 2009, Table 1, and can meet the requirements for all grades defined in Table 2 of that Standard. For Grade 3 (where control of water vapour is required), it will be necessary to provide a mix with a sufficiently low vapour permeability in combination with an adequate section thickness (see sections 7.2 and 7.3).

19.5 Basements for dwellings should be designed in accordance with the guidance given in Approved document — basement for dwellings (revised edition)(1).(1) Published by the British Cement Association, Product code: 48.062.

20 Mix design20.1 Concrete containing the product is normally supplied as ready-mixed concrete but may be prepared on sites where there is adequate mix control. Concrete preparation on site should be carried out in accordance with BS 8000-2.1 : 1990, the Certificate holder’s instructions and this Certificate.

20.2 The concrete must have a minimum cement content of 350 kg·m–3, be batched with a maximum water/cement ratio of 0.45 and have a minimum consistence of S3. Further details of suitable mixes can be obtained from the Certificate holder.

20.3 Once the fresh concrete is mixed, further materials must not be added.

20.4 The consistency of the concrete can be adjusted using a suitable(1) water reducing or superplasticising admixture complying with BS EN 934-2 : 2009 to ensure the maximum water/cement ratio given in section 20.2 is not exceeded. Specific admixtures have not been considered and are outside the scope of this Certificate.(1) The Certificate holder’s advice should be sought regarding the suitability and compatibility of water reducing or superplasticising admixtures.

Admixtures should be evaluated before use and site trials carried out to establish the appropriate dose required.

21 Site mixing21.1 The product is added to the mixer at the correct dose (see section 4.1) prior to batching the concrete constituents.

21.2 Any additional superplasticiser should only be added once the product has been incorporated.

21.3 The resulting concrete should be mixed for a minimum of five minutes to ensure even distribution of the product throughout the concrete.

21.4 Where the product is to be added to concrete on site, care must be taken to ensure that adequate mix control is available.

22 Placing22.1 Concrete containing the product is placed in the same way as normal concrete, in accordance with BS 8000-2.2 : 1990, BS EN 13670 : 2009, the Certificate holder’s health and safety guidance, and the normal routine precautions for handling concrete.

22.2 Concrete containing the product should not be placed in temperatures of 5°C or below.

22.3 Concrete containing the product should be fully compacted.
