QUOTE(ozak @ Mar 2 2020, 10:29 AM) Thickness 100mm - 240kg/m2 - 7.26kN/m2 yes ..after long time the rain water drop into same place ..slowly concrete become holes and crack line ..thus water leak ..My concrete is open air too. Should have a drainage for water flow out. Concrete treat with water sealant and paint. some area the water will stuck there and wont flow to the drainage... QUOTE(Zot @ Mar 2 2020, 10:40 AM) This leak can be treated and repaired. The concrete load also depends on the iron bar used. how to know how big the iron bar that used ? already covered up by cement ...i applied the method like the photo ... the place without tiles plan to apply pentens T200...

QUOTE(Zot @ Mar 2 2020, 02:15 PM) You can google for video on how to repair the crack line. Plenty pentens T200 can help to covered the crack line ? Of course you'll never know unless you get the architect drawing  Looks like they designed the tank to be put on concrete slab. I'm sure that part of concrete is the strongest point. Probably got column to support it. wonder the tank can last for how long .. |

QUOTE(ozak @ Mar 4 2020, 08:40 AM) Clean it up and apply waterproof sealant. ya...that's why tile for that particular area only ...Than tile it up the whole area. Cause the waterproof sealant cannot last for long. You need to apply it from time to time. Tile it up will prevent the rain from chipping off the concrete. what method to apply can last longer to prevent the leak? thanks ... |
