Waterproofing a tunnel can be one of the most demanding tasks in the construction industry. To protect the structure and provide longevity, proper moisture control is necessary.
DELTA®-MS 20
The Problems
The Solution
Using a dimpled membrane will allow a drainage course and will also prevent capillary movement. DELTA®-MS 20 is a compression-resistant, durable, dimpled sheet made from special HDPE. Its high drainage capacity enables the product to meet all requirements for occurring water problems on tunnel construction projects.
This product is a heavy gauge version of DELTA®-MS with deep 20 mm studs. It is used where extra drainage capacity is required, such as deeper structures within tunneling and other double-shell horizontal or vertical constructions, or where a larger flow rate is required.
