Selection of the most appropriate, professional tools for the setting of foam backer rod at the correct, consistent depth, without puncturing the skin, is the first step in creating a sealant joint that is long lasting and meets sealant manufacturer specifications. Next is the selection of the optimal sealant dispenser and nozzle. The size and orientation of the joint and the viscosity of the specified sealant will guide an installer to the most efficient drive, material containment unit (MCU) and nozzle for the application. Lastly, the selection of the most appropriate caulk finishing spatula and the technique employed are critical for the sealant to adhere and perform to specification.
This session will explore the differences between bonded and unbonded topping slabs, discuss materials- and installation-related causes of failures, and provide guidelines to properly implement each type of topping slab.
This demonstration will review ICRI surface preparation guideline and material requirements, mixing, application protocol and product merits for achieving an ultra-smooth surface renovation.
This webinar will discuss the keys to proper surface preparation including establishing the appropriate level of surface profile, evaluating the concrete substrate and the material being installed to determine the correct level of preparation as well as the correct methods and tools to achieve that level.
This unique webinar specifically focuses on the technology, process & application of using high-pressure water to remove concrete, called Hydro Demolition.
Industry experts Eric Muench and Dan Wald will discuss how to best select the right traffic bearing waterproof membrane technology for concrete protection.
Proper installation of the RFP and Mesh system on stucco substrates that have cracking issues will be demonstrated. This involves application of the product with embedded mesh. Also shown will be the application of a "Kiss Coat" of material applied over the previous first coat installation. Finally, how to perform a field adhesion test to ensure adequate bond will be demonstrated. The product, history, benefits and procedures for a successful application and installation will be discussed as well as proper surface preparation and how weather conditions can affect the installation. Demonstration will be hands-on installation on an actual building.
