Description
Established in 2007, the eDeaf Company provides training courses and programs to help prepare deaf students to compete in the South African job market. The eDeaf Training Center in Berea, a suburb of Durban in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, outgrew the previous premises and needed to expand. The resulting construction project added a two-story annex, which provides two new training studios and a large recreational area with a rooftop tea garden. The training studios are on the lower level and one outer wall is a concrete retaining wall exposed to the elements – and groundwater.
Products Used
The project contractor, used PENETRON ADMIX to treat the concrete used for the lower level retaining wall and foundation slab and the upper level floor slab. PENEBAR SW swellable waterstop strips were also used in the retaining wall and the upper level floor slab. Tie holes and miscellaneous voids, cracks, bug holes and honeycombed areas were repaired with PENECRETE MORTAR and a surface application of PENETRON crystalline slurry.
