The main challenge was to ensure a reliable and durable waterproofing system that could withstand the region's cold winters and hot summers. The installation was carried out in several stages using modern waterproofing products from MC and thanks to good weather conditions, it was easily completed in one day in December on a flat roof area of 570 m².
Waterproofing the flat roof presented the project team with several technical challenges. A uniform layer thickness was required to ensure optimum waterproofing performance. In addition, the corners and connections had to be specially reinforced to guarantee the long-term durability of the waterproofing. As the material used is not UV-resistant, it was necessary to apply a suitable post-treatment to ensure the longevity of the waterproofing.
To achieve optimal waterproofing, Nafuflex Easy Tech 1, a fast-drying, single-component, sprayable polymer-modified bitumen thick coating (PMBC), was used. It was applied by spraying in two layers. A total thickness of 4 mm had to be achieved on the horizontal surface. The client was impressed not only by the speed of application, which saved time and money, and the excellent crack bridging, but also by the environmentally friendly nature of the sealant, as Nafuflex Easy Tech 1 does not contain any solvents.
With MC-FastTape, a fleece-backed thermoplastic elastomer coving sealing tape was also used in the corners and connections of the flat roof to provide additional reinforcement. The MC products and the precise procedure used led to the quick and efficient implementation of the waterproofing measures. Construction progress was accelerated, and the client was impressed by the ease of application and the high quality of the solution.
