About this event

  • 7 hours 30 minutes

The workshop will provide an understanding of best industry testing practices related to substrate preparation for installation of waterproof, coatings water repellant sealers and sealants on concrete surfaces, as well as field adhesion testing, chemical anchoring techniques, leak injection basics, fibre reinforcing plastics applications and evaluation of concrete properties.

The workshop will feature live instructional and individual hands on testing and troubleshooting. Multiple industry standards, protocols, and accepted practices by organizations such as CSA, ACI, ICRI, ASTM, SWRI will be discussed and applied.

To facilitate maximum hands opportunities by participants, attendance is limited to 30 people, broken into six groups of 5 to explore each topic in depth with our Technical Demonstrators.
