24.01.2022 This is significant moment for the NSW construction industry with the passing of the Design and Building Practitioners Bill 2019 significantly increasing practitioner accountability.

24.01.2022 Its not every day that were testing a protective waterproofing membrane that is close to 80 years old, only recently revealed after being covered for decades. This deck was excavated as part of the Sydney Modern Project and Waterproofing Integrity - Quality Control Services have conducted testing on the state of the existing membrane to check for its continuity. This membrane sits above naval oil tanks that will soon become a gallery space when the project is complete. From... our testing we were able to advise on whether the membrane could be patched or needed to be replaced entirely. What do you think the outcome was?

23.01.2022 Waterproofing Integrity recently conducted a series of adhesion tests on a Sika Australia epoxy repair mortar applied to the surface of a reinforced concrete wall. This photo shows the break point occurring in the concrete layer, verifying the epoxy-concrete bond is greater than the tensile strength of the concrete. This type of test ensures a stable substrate for the waterproofing and finishes to be applied over. #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #contractor #qualitycontrol #adhesion #coating #render #sika

23.01.2022 Waterproofing Integrity is proud to contribute to the waterproofing success of this Little Bay residential basement project recently installed by Above and Beyond Waterproofing using the @Fatra Australia Fatrafol 803vs pvc sheet membrane.

19.01.2022 Liquid waterproofing membranes are designed to be fully bonded to their substrate and membrane performance is tied to the strength of that bond. Measurement of this can be used to verify that a waterproofing system will achieve the advertised durability. Correct surface preparation and use of appropriate primers and the primary methods for improving bond strength. Note: this photo demonstrates the result of an adhesion test where bond between membrane and concrete substrate ...was greater than the tensile strength of the concrete #waterproofing #qualitycontrol

19.01.2022 Good suggestion on what industry representative bodies can do to improve consumer confidence.

19.01.2022 Some quick Dry Film Thickness (DFT) testing on balcony waterproofing today. This photo is a good example to cross pattern surface texture achieved when 2 layers have been applied perpendicularly. Application in this manner results in a more consistent and continuous waterproofing system.

16.01.2022 Planter boxes are a common source for water ingress on many structures, causing varying damage and difficult to find leaks. Waterproofing Integrity - Quality Control Services have been testing planter boxes on commercial and residential projects this week prior to tonnes of soil being overlaid on several projects in Sydneys Inner-West and Eastern Suburbs. Compliance has been great but an area of conjecture is the membrane finish height. Most planter box waterproofing membr...anes are not designed to be exposed to UV light but AS4564.2 requires a height of 100mm above soil or fill level. If you require testing of your planter boxes or waterproofing generally, contact our team on 1300 025 944 or visit www.waterproofingintegrity.com.au #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #contractor #qualitycontrol #electronicleakdetection #ELD

No faults were detected and the membrane was verified to be continuous. #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #contractor #qualitycontrol #electronicleakdetection #ELD

12.01.2022 Flood Testing in progress! Waterproofing Integrity uses a variety of technologies but sometimes a good old flood test is suitable for diagnosing the existence of breaches in the waterproofing system. This type of test should be performed in accordance with ASTM D5957-98 This balcony had an illegal structure erected to create 2 additional bedrooms. A court order required the demolition of this structure and testing to ensure the fixings used did not cause damage to the waterproofing membrane. #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #contractor #qualitycontrol #electronicleakdetection #floodtest #floodtesting

11.01.2022 Did you know that thermal imagery can be used to identify spot fixed tiles? Spot fixed tiles apply point loading to waterproofing membrane, which can result in failures due to stress applied at single points, rather than the distribution of weight across the waterproofing membrane. This method is not recommended and should be avoided under AS3958-1 2007. Hollow tile cavities have been a target under the NSW Government mandate to improve building practices. ... Earlier this week, Waterproofing Integrity - Quality Control Services were asked if we could assist in determining whether tiles were applied correctly with full trowel adhesive, or as this image indicates, were spot fixed.

10.01.2022 Our Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) service can be used to determine maintenance requirements through the lifecycle of a waterproofing system. Waterproofing Integrity was contracted to scan the Fatra PVC rooftop waterproofing system as part of the yearly maintenance schedule for the Sydney Trains Engineering Building in Clyde. Also known as the Clyde Central Hub, this building was completed in 2017 to replace several old depots with a fit-for-purpose new and modern building t...hat accommodates various maintenance and engineering functions into one location. The report provided by Waterproofing Integrity on completion of the roof scan identified 17 issues including cigarette burns, cuts and punctures in the waterproofing membrane. These issues were rectified and the building owner was able to maintain the 20 year warranty period for their rooftop waterproofing system. #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #fatra #contractor #qualitycontrol #maintenance

08.01.2022 I am proud to announce that Waterproofing Integrity has now been in operation for 365 days. In this time I have faced both opposition and acceptance as I transitioned from a background in contracting to the new frontier of consulting. Even in the face of recent uncertainty the WI team has grown steadily thanks to the support of industry stakeholders. So I would like to share my immense appreciation for all the support from our clients and vendors that has been critical for us reach this milestone. I believe now more than ever that the services we offer bring unparalleled value to the quality of waterproofing in the contraction industry and look forward to our continued relationship. Best Regards, David Previte

07.01.2022 This is not something we want to find when inspecting a fully bonded liquid polyurethane waterproofing system. A membrane designed to be fully bonded will not provide the intended performance characteristics when not secured to the substrate, often resulting in costly defects and rectification. AS4654.2-2012 Section 2.5.3.1 Fully bonded or liquid-applied The preparation of the substrate for fully bonded or liquid-applied membranes shall result in the surface of the substrate being smooth, without protrusions, voids or formwork distortions, and clean, dry, and free from dust and contamination.

04.01.2022 Full house at the Building Defects Crisis seminar in Brisbane tonight. Great questions and discussions from attendees and presenters.

04.01.2022 You dont have to run faster than the bear to get away. You just have to run faster than the guy next to you. This surmises the state of the NSW construction industry in recent months as builders and developers rapidly move to implement quality measures so as to avoid the scrutiny of the building commissioners office. Only time will tell how these changes will impact consumer confidence but this is a promising start.

02.01.2022 There are few areas in a structure that must hold hydrostatic pressure equal to that of water tanks. Fire water, stormwater and rainwater tanks are now commonly built inside residential structures so any leaks will become immediately apparent to occupants. Waterproofing Integrity has recently been engaged to verify the continuity of pvc sheet membranes installed to various types on internal tanks. We are able to detect micro breaches that would be invisible to visual inspec...tion.

02.01.2022 The Brisbane Gallery of Modern Art summer exhibition 2020, Water, featured a range of indoor water themed exhibits. The artist Olafur Eliasson used 100 tonnes of materials to create the vast indoor landscape of rocks and streaming water named Riverbed, for the first time in the southern hemisphere. Waterproofing Integrity was contracted to perform Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) and Seam Probe Testing on the Ardex TPO sheet waterproofing. With the substructure design detai...ling this waterproofing system as the only line of defence against water escaping into other areas of the gallery, it was critical that a high degree of quality control was implemented. Even the best materials and installation methods can fall victim to damage from a stray screw or dropped tools. ELD is able to identify micro penetrations through a membrane of coating that may not be easily identified by traditional visual inspections. #waterproofing #qualityassurance #inspection #construction #leakdetection #leaks #quality #testing #sydney #membrane #technician #service #contractor #qualitycontrol #maintenance #electronicleakdetection #ELD
