Solution

Aquafin AQ100p Admixture was recommended for the casting of the Swimming pool and waste Tank, while the concrete was supplied by Lafarge Concrete. Aquafin Admix has been used for the foundation on a previous occasion. Swimming pool and Tank was totally water tight after construction. The unique advantage of Aquafin admix is that as a third generation crystalline it has the highest capacity to withstand hydrostatic pressure and water attack.

Aquafin Admix is a revolutionary 3rd generation crystalline primary waterproofing admixture. When integrated in concrete there is no need for any form of  additional waterproofing, as the concrete remain waterproofed and water tight.

 Independent Laboratory Test for Compressive Strenght:

Under the supervision of Ledyvine a sample of the concrete without Aquafin Admix and with Aquafin Admix were taken. It was observed that Aquafin Admix increased the compressive strength by 25% compared to Lafarge ready mix concrete
