Cold Roofing System

Cold Roofing

In cold roof construction, the waterproof membrane is applied directly to the structural decking. This type of waterproofing requires adequate ventilation to be facilitated between the deck and the insulation layer to prevent moisture vapour rising upwards. Poor ventilation could be the cause of interstitial condensation in the roof structure.

Substructure Waterproofing System

Substructure Waterproofing

IKO Permatec Substructure Waterproofing system provides a “protected membrane” system which usually incorporates a drainage board. IKO Permatec ECOwrap is fully bonded to the “POSITIVE” side of the structure, usually concrete and covered with an IKO Plasdrain drainage board and then structural concrete, backfill etc to suit performance criteria. Note: IKO Permatec cannot be used on the “NEGATIVE” side of the structure (eg. the inside of basements etc).

IKO Permatec ECOwrap provides a flexible fully bonded monolithic waterproofing system to flat or vertical substrate surfaces. Details (upstands, abutments and penetrations etc) are fully bonded into the IKO Permatec system ensuring total security.

Substrate Waterproofing designs often include the vertical surface of external walls of underground car parks and storage areas. A vertical drainage board is recommended to provide drainage and protection for the vertical waterproofing. A drainage system should be incorporated at the base of the wall to allow for the free flow of any water built up in the ground.

  1. Concrete deck primed with Permatec Primer
  2. 2 coats of Permatec Anti-Root incorporating Permaflash-R reinforcement
  3. Permaguard-F protection layer
  4. Drainage mat
  5. Backfill
20 Year System Guarantee

Substrate preparation
The surface of the substrate (usually concrete) should be suitably prepared to accept the Permatec fully bonded system. Joints, cracks or interfaces between different substrate materials should be detailed in accordance with Permatec Standard Drawings and Masterspec 4414AP specification.

Membrane
Using a suitable spreader or squeegee, the first coat of hot Permatec Anti-root compound is applied to the prepared substrate at a nominal coat thickness of 3mm. The Permaflash-R polyester reinforcement is brushed into the Permatec Anti-root compound whilst it is still hot. All laps in the Permaflash-R should be at least 75mm wide and fully sealed with the Permatec compound. The second coat is applied in the same manner ensuring complete coverage of Permaflash-R at the nominal coating thickness of 3mm. The second coat of Permatec Anti-Root must be protected.

Protection
Permaguard-F sand surfaced bitumen membrane is the standard protection layer. It is applied directly to the second coat of Permatec whilst it is still hot and tacky. It is used on the vertical or horizontal area which is to be subsequently covered with a range of system components such as protection/ drainage layers. The Permaguard-F protection layer should be rolled into the hot Permatec as quickly as possible. Laps in Permaguard-F to be minimum 75mm and sealed using hot Permatec compound.

Extraordinary loadings may require an additional protection layer of Permaguard-M slate surfaced bitumen membrane, applied by controlled torch application. Contact Apshaltech Ltd for details.

Permaguard-HDPB (Heavy Duty) or Permaguard-PB protection boards can be used to provide additional protection to the waterproofing system. They are installed butt-jointed to the second coat of Permatec compound. Joints are taped over with 75mm reinforced adhesive tape.

Detailing
In the event that a rainwater outlet detail in the waterproofing system is required. Use Permatec Standard Drawing details or contact Apshaltech Technical Services for advice.

System components
A standard Permatec system will include a range of system components including: protection/drainage layer prior to the installation of the backfill material or loading coat material (concrete etc).

Mastic Asphalt Systems

Inverted Insulated Roof System

Asphaltech inverted insulated roof X-sectional detail

The inverted roof is a flat roof construction and its main feature is that, unlike in conventional flat roof designs, the thermal insulation is laid above the Polymer Modified Mastic Asphalt, as a result the dew point is taken outside the building, eliminating any possible condensation forming inside the roof structure. Any type of deck or ballast can be selected as a finishing surface such as gravelled or pebbled roofs, paved terrace roofs, green roofs or a combination including planters.

Podium Terrace System

Podium Terrace

Where Asphaltech mastic asphalt is required as an exposed paving subjected to foot traffic only, it is laid in two coats to a nominal thickness of 25mm. The first coat is laid to a thickness of 10mm and the second coat 15mm incorporating 15% by weight of coarse aggregate.

Where insulation is incorporated beneath Asphaltech mastic asphalt on balconies and terraces, or in situations where point loading is anticipated, promenade surfacing should be provided by suitable concrete tiles or paving slabs.

For the environmentally conscious it is an ideal waterproofing material for extensive green roofs, intensive roof gardens and biodiversity roofs.
It is completely resistant to root penetration and any water collected of the Mastic surfaces is potable.

Used in this manner it has also been found to increase the thermal characteristics of the roof, reduce noise transmission and increase the life expectancy of waterproofing membrane.

By selecting our Green Roof system, you have selected one of the greenest construction materials available with zero carbon emissions.

The Polymer Modified Mastic Asphalt roofing industry was the first in the world to achieve a carbon zero status. It was able to achieve this through key initiatives such as 100% recyclable, lowering the heating requirement for the melt and 50+ year durability.

Car Park Trafficable System

Car Park Trafficable

Trafficable roofs are recognised as one of the most durable car parking waterproofing systems available and are used extensively throughout the world on Bridge decks elevated car parks and loading docks. They can consist of a torch on membrane 1 or 2 layer layers of the Asphaltech mastic asphalt as the waterproofing layer. Then a wear slab of either mastic asphalt paving grade, reinforced concrete or paving on a suitable substrate, these toppings vary in thickness subject to their final requirements.

  1. Asphaltech mastic asphalt paving layer 30mm thick 64.38Kg/m2
  2. Asphaltech mastic asphalt 10mm thick 21.46Kg/m2
