TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS ITEMS1. Concrete walls cleaned from all cement grout and formwork

rods; the concrete must be clean, dry, and seasoned. A rounded edge in mortar of cement will be installed at the foot of the turn-ups to permit correct membrane positioning.

2. All surfaces on which the waterproofing layer is laid on-site must be previously given a coat of a bituminous primer (POLYPRIMER HP 45 PROFESSIONAL by POLYGLASS S.p.A.) with 20÷25 viscosity in FORD Cup no. 4 at 25 °C. Wait until the primer is completely dry (15-20 hours) before applying the waterproofing layer.

3. The first waterproofing layer will be composed of a plasto-styrene waterproofing for professional use made with a latest generation distilled bitumen-based compound REOXTHENE ULTRALIGHT TECHNOLOGY in 4 mm thickness with continuous thread non-woven polyester fabric with elevated basic weight reinforced and stabilised by longitudinal glass fibre (EASY LIFT by POLYGLASS S.p.A. - produced by UNI EN ISO 9001:2008 and UNI EN ISO14001:2004 certified Quality System; conformity marking with intended use as per EN 13969 Multiple layer membranes for foundations). This membrane with -10 °C cold flexibility is made with the quality standards ensured by patented innovative technology which surpasses previous weight/thickness parameters, completely without mineral filler (calcium carbonate CaCo3), and with an ISO 1183 bituminous compound density of ≤0.95 kg/dm3. The membrane can be applied with perfect adherence to the previously applied vertical layer with overlaps of 8÷10 cm on the sides and 12÷15 cm on the heads and bonded by light torching with propane gas.

4. The second waterproofing layer will be composed of a plasto-styrene waterproofing for professional use made with a latest generation distilled bitumen-based compound REOXTHENE ULTRALIGHT TECHNOLOGY in 4 mm thickness with continuous thread non-woven polyester fabric with elevated basic weight reinforced and stabilised by longitudinal glass fibre (EASY LIFT by POLYGLASS S.p.A. - produced by UNI EN ISO 9001:2008 and UNI EN ISO14001:2004 certified Quality System; conformity marking with intended use as per EN 13969 Multiple layer membranes for foundations). This membrane with -10 °C cold flexibility is made with the quality standards ensured by patented technology which surpasses previous weight/thickness parameters, completely without mineral filler (calcium carbonate CaCo3), and with an ISO 1183 bituminous compound density of ≤0.95 kg/dm3. The membrane can be applied with perfect adherence to the previous layer with

8-10 cm overlapping at the sides and 12-15 cm overlapping at the heads bonded by light torching with propane gas. The layer must be turned up and bonded by torching without interruption along the walls. All the membranes forming the second waterproofing layer must be laid in the same direction as the first with longitudinal and transversal overlapping equal to or greater than the width of the bonding beam.

5. POLYFOND KIT DRAIN by POLYGLASS S.p.A., a protective drainage system made a with a new mixture of HDPE in truncated cone embossing bonded to white needle-loomed non-woven polypropylene fabric with 110 g/m2 density ensures waterproofing seal protection and rainwater drainage. The protective system is fastened using a perforated HDPE finishing tube 200 cm long, 7 cm high. The protective system can be fastened by impact with washers and nails in 25 mm galvanized steel.

6. Positioning at the base of the foundation of a perforated drainage tube sheathed in non-woven fabric.

7. Refill using clean backfill free from construction debris laid on-site with care to avoid damaging the mechanical protection provided previously.
