Type B : Structural Integrity Protection

We are structural waterproofing and ground gas protection contractors. All of our installers are trained and experienced in the installation of our specialist materials

Structural Integrity Protection — Simplified:

Explained:

Type B (structurally integral) protection as defined by BS8102:2022 (Code of practice for protection of below ground structures against water from the ground) where the structure itself is constructed as an integral water-resistant shell. Invariably built of reinforced concrete, the basement structure must be designed within certain strict parameters to ensure it is water resistant.

When considering and or specifying a Type B integral system, this should only be carried out where there is knowledge and understanding of waterproofing in relation to BSB102:2022 and in the case of concrete structures an understanding and competence in concrete construction.

The water tightness of the Type B construction is reliant upon the design and construction of the basement as an integral shell, using a concrete of low permeability, and appropriate joint detailing.

Area of use:

  • New build basements.

  • Any new Underground Structures.

  • Below ground structures.

  • Car parks.

  • Retaining walls.

  • Swimming pools.

  • Lift pits.

  • Tunnels.

We'd like to highlight an innovative 2-in-1 Crystalline Waterproofing Solution if you're looking for a recommendation.

After recently receiving a BBA Cert the product is now being used across the UK and looks to be shaping the way the market approaches Crystalline Waterproofing
