Products Used
PENETRON ADMIX SB, a crystalline waterproofing admixture, was added to the concrete mix to protect the plant’s below-grade retaining walls and foundation slab from the groundwater levels at the site. The Smyrna plant’s concrete structures are now resistant to concrete deterioration caused by water penetration, chemical attack, and corrosion, while withstanding hydrostatic pressure from the groundwater.
