City Faulkner Rd
Belmont Community Centre
Builder: PACT Construction
Architects: Bollig Architects
Project Developer: TBC
Goal: Soprema waterproof membranes testing
Solution: Working with Bollig Architects and the Builder PACT Construction, along with Waterproofer Auswest Coatings on site the installation of the various Soprema membrane systems supplied by Allduro on this project was critical.
With a basement below the water table, podium deck and planters over a museum storage area, communications centre and a rooftop with local government offices etc below, the waterproofing contractor and builder engaged Detec Australia to test for any breaches in the system.
As there were many trades following and working over the membrane as it was installed, some areas were even tested more than once. When breaches were noted, they were marked and photographed with the waterproofing contractors staff informed and reports were sent to the builder to enable repairs, prior to the next stage is completed. the new membrane to ensure no leakage will occur.

Freyssinet were contracted to remove tiling, repair existing waterproof membrane on one half of the building which had been replaced 2 years earlier and install a new membrane system on the remaining half. Detec Australia was contracted to find the leaks in the first half and test the new membrane to ensure no leakage will occur.
Cooper and Oxley engaged Detec Australia to test the liquid membrane being installed on the carpark deck and terrace walkway and gardens with retail areas, changerooms etc directly below to ensure no leaks were found in the waterproof membrane.
Engaged by Snaddon Projects to complete Electronic leak detection scanning, the system was found to be watertight and tiling was able to proceed within 2 hours.
The 16000m2 carpark being relatively had issues, so the owners decided to remove the topping slab and membrane, grind and prepare the area. Detec tested at every stage ensuring any breaches were repaired.
