footbridge waterproofing
By nature, footbridges are vulnerable to the elements. Attack from water, chemicals, and frost can lead to deterioration and loss of structural integrity. Installing an effective waterproofing and surfacing solution is, therefore, vital to the long-lasting durability of a structure, particularly in highly trafficked areas.
Liquid-applied high-performance polyurea membranes have become the material of choice over the past 10-15 years. ArmorThane‘s Polyurea-based waterproofing solution offers enhanced durability and bonding to concrete and crack-bridging characteristics that traditional coatings and paints have historically been unmatched.
The ArmorThane waterproofing system surfaces and protects a wide variety of structures operating under diverse climatic environments and traffic conditions, from light-duty pedestrian structures to major bridges and viaducts subject to heavy vehicular traffic. It is suitable for application to concrete, steel, and aluminum substrates. The ArmorThane waterproofing system can be custom tailored to individual projects and applied at a thickness to suit differing vehicular or pedestrian traffic loads to enable weight saving.
