Course #: HEN-WRP301-5

1 AIA LU/HSW

During this 1-hour seminar, attendees will explores the principles, design considerations, and best practices for pre-applied waterproofing systems in shotcrete applications. Participants will gain an in-depth understanding of how pre-applied membranes function as an effective barrier against water infiltration in below-grade structures, tunnels, and other shotcrete installations. The course covers the unique challenges presented by shotcrete, including substrate variability, high-pressure application, and curing conditions, and demonstrates how pre-applied waterproofing
solutions address these issues.

Attendees will learn best practices for creating an effective shotcrete pre-applied installation to avoid building leaks that can lead to indoor air quality contamination, mold, and early building decay or even structural failure.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand differences between cast-in-place concrete and shotcrete.
• Learn the differences in how shotcrete impacts waterproofing membranes.
• Explore best practices for ensuring structural integrity and waterproofing performance when using shotcrete.
• Apply industry standards and quality control measures.
