Abstract | ||||
Waterproofing of underground structures is frequently a problem and a range of solutions have been tried in the last two decades. Dominating the market are PVC and HDPE (high density poly ethylene) sheet membranes, but recently the alternative, is concrete admixtures for water permeability reducing and so that use in concrete isolation (waterproofing), the longevity of a concrete structure is influenced by the permeability of the concrete, In this research, it has been addition ADDICRETE DM2 and PLASTOCRETE N to the mixture by difference ratio. 1%, 0.5%, 0.45% ,0.35% of cement weight, constant ratio from , sand, gravel, cement and water W/C=0.45 in all tests that used in the research . The study of these tests by measuring the permeability of concrete specimens prepared in the laboratory. Many tests were carried out and the results were presented. | ||||
