Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing A tunnel is an underground passage through a mountain, beneath a city or under a waterway. It may be for pedestrians and/or cyclists, general road traffic, motor vehicles , rail traffic, or for a canal. Some tunnels are constructed purely for carrying water (for consumption, hydroelectric purposes or as sewers); others carry services such as telecommunications cables. Mountain Tunnel -- Drilling and blasting (D&B) method NATM (New Austrian Tunneling Method) is the most common method. It originates in hard rock tunneling and utilizes rockbolts and shotcrete applied immediately after blasting. This is often followed by a cast in-situ concrete lining using formwork. -- Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) method TMB is used as an alternative to drilling and blasting (D&B) methods. TBMs are used to excavate tunnels with a circular cross section through a variety of subterranean matter; hard rock, sand or almost anything in between. As the TBM m

oves forward, the round cutter heads cut into the tunnel face and splits off large chunks of rock. The cutter head carves a smooth round hole through the rock -- the exact shape of a tunnel. Conveyor belts carry the rock shavings through the TBM and out the back of the machine to a dumpster. Tunnel lining is the wall of the tunnel. It consists of precast concrete segments that form rings, cast in-situ concrete lining using formwork or shotcrete lining. -1- ICS/Penetron International LTD. Types of Tunnels & Construction Methods Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing Shallow tunnels are of a cut-and-cover type (if under water of the immersed-tube type). Deep tunnels are excavated, often using a tunnelling shield. For intermediate levels, both methods are possible. -- Cut-and-cover method Cut-and-cover is a method of tunnel construction where a trench is excavated and roofed over. Strong supporting beams are necessary to avoid the danger of the tunnel collapsing. -- Shi

eld method The Shield method uses one or two shields (large metal cylinder) to cut out a tunnel through the soft ground. A rotating cutting wheel is located at the front end of the shield. Behind the cutting wheel is a chamber where, depending on the type of the TBM, the excavated soil is either mixed with slurry (called slurry TBM) or left as is (earth pressure balance or EPB shield). Systems for removal of the soil (or the soil mixed with slurry) are also present. Behind the chamber is a set of hydraulic jacks supported by the finished part of the tunnel which are used to push the TBM forward. Once a certain distance has been excavated (roughly 1.5-2 meters), a new tunnel ring is built using the erector. The erector is a rotating system that picks up pre-cast concrete segments and places them in the desired position. Behind the shield, inside the finished part of the tunnel, several support mechanisms can be found that are part of the TBM: dirt removal, slurry pipelines if applicabl

Shallow-buried Tunnel or Soft Soil Tunnel Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing -- Immersed-tube method The immersed tube tunnel technique uses hollow box sectioned tunnel elements that have been prefabricated in reinforced concrete. These are floated out into the harbor and placed into a trench that was pre-dredged in the harbor bed. When in position, the elements are joined together to form a tunnel. The trench is then refilled and the harbour bed returned to its original level.

D. Why Tunnel Structures Deteriorate Typical Defects in the Impermeability of the Tunnel Lining Moisture, water and chemical damage to concrete Even concrete of high quality is a porous material -- Excess water evaporation during hardening will leave millions of pores and capillaries in concrete -- The zones between cement and aggregates are prone to cracking during hardening due to drying shrinkage, temperature stress and outside forces Porosity of concrete -- Allows moisture, water and chemicals to move freely throughout the concrete -- Increases absorption of deleterious chemicals -4- Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing -- If not waterproofed, cracks can allow water to pass into the structure and possibly damage utilities, interior finishes and even the structure itself.

How Penetron Products Waterproof & Protect Concrete Penetron or Penetron Plus Typical concrete structure with moisture When mixed with water and applied as a coating, the active chemicals in Penetron cause a reaction leading to the formation of nonsoluble crystals within the pores and capillary canals of concrete The concrete becomes permanently sealed and neither water nor any other liquids are able to penetrate the concrete from any direction Concrete is saturated with water so that there is an adequate amount of liquid present to allow movement of chemicals into the concrete pores. The chemicals are pushed into the concrete through the action of diffusion. Under the right conditions, the chemicals can also move into the concrete by seeping water, or by the natural wicking action of the concrete. Once into the concrete,

the chemicals react with unhydrated cement particles, and by-products of cement hydration to form needle-like crystals that fill and block the pores and capillaries in the concrete. As water can no longer pass through the concrete it is defined as being “waterproof”. In the absence of moisture, the activating chemicals remain dormant in concrete for years. If minute cracks recur, at any time, any penetrating moisture will activate the dormant materials, and the chemical reaction and sealing process will repeat itself automatically -8- Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing Penetron Admix is a unique crystal-forming additive that provides permanent protection for buildings and other structures by waterproofing concrete from the inside out. Penetron Admix is added to the concrete mix at the time of batching. The activating chemicals of the product react with water, unhydrated cement particles and by-products of cement hydration in concrete to form needle-like crystals.

These crystals grow and migrate through the concrete to fill in hairline cracks and microscopic voids that would otherwise serve as passages for harmful moisture. Penetron Admix enhances the natural hydration process in concrete by intensifying hydration crystal growth, increasing compressive strength and reducing cracking caused by shrinkage. In absence of moisture, the activating chemicals remain dormant in concrete for years. Should cracks recur at any time, these dormant materials are activated by any penetrating moisture, and the chemical action and sealing process repeats itself automatically. -9- ICS/Penetron International LTD.

e utilities, interior finishes and even the structure itself. Therefore a waterproofinging system must be able to bridge the cracks to keep the structure dry. There are two types of waterproofing systems: an “open” and a “closed” system. The “open” system utilizes the waterproofing materials to channel the water to sidewall drains that must be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis. For structures below groundwater level, the entire structure is wrapped with the waterproofing system creating a “closed system”.

INTRODUCTION Cracking and seepage of water on the retaining wall at Changi Airport Terminal 3 was reported by Reverton Engineering(s) Pte Ltd (herein refers to as the client). SETSCO has been engaged by the client to carry out laboratory analysis to determine the crack width and crystal growth in the crack on the concrete cores extracted from said structure. The proposed basement was constructed with three sides of wall, labeled as wall 1-3 in this report (refer to figure 1 in Appendix A). Thickness of the wall was about 600mm. PENETRON waterproofing admixture was said to be used in the concrete. Water leakage was found along the crack line and tie pin after backfill. However, the water

leakage has been stopped on wall 1, which was cast somewhere in 2001. Sign of efflorescence was found on all three sides of the walls. Most of the efflorescence emanated from the tie pins, but cracks with some sign of efflorescence were also noted at some areas (Refer to the photographs in Appendix). A total of three core samples were extracted from wall 1 on 05/10/2002. Samples S1 and S3 were extracted from crack area while sample S2 was taken at the tie pin. During extraction, the cores were drilled to a depth of 400mm but, due to the presence of reinforcement, the length of the core S3 removed was only 240mm. The concrete mix design furnished by the client is given in Appendix A. 2. MICROSCOPIC ANALYSIS The microscopic analysis was performed on a ground section using a stereo microscope and metallurgical microscope and on a thin section with a polarizing and fluorescent microscope (PFM) under transmitted and reflected light. For preparation of the ground section, a small block of

the sample was cut and ground to attain a smooth finish. For preparation of a thin section, a small concrete block was sawn from the core sample, glued to an object glass and impregnated with an epoxy resin containing a fluorescent dye. After hardening of the epoxy, a thin section with a surface area of approximately 33*63mm and a thickness of 20-30mm was prepared for PFM analysis. - 42 - Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing A6127/CHF Page 3 of 4 Under transmitted light, the various components ( type of cement and aggregates), air voids content, compaction pores and damage phenomena in the samples were identified. Under reflected light, the fluorescent microscopy made it possible to study the homogeneity of the mix and cement paste, capillary porosity, microcracks and other defects in the samples. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) Analysis technique were also applied for semi-quantitatively analysis of the element composition of the

crystals present in the crack and topography of the crystals. In summary, SEM utilizes a beam of electrons in a vacuum environment to form an image of the surface topography of a sample. Such magnified images are characterized by a high level of resolution and good depth of view. The characteristic X-ray emitted from the sample surface upon being irradiated with the electrons are then analyzed using an EDX accessory/detector that is coupled to the SEM, allowing evaluation of the % elemental content at the irradiated areas/spots on the sample. 3. RESULTS i) Visual examination The length of the cores varied from 240mm to 310mm. Crack perpendicular to the surface was noted in samples S1 and S3. The width of the crack ranged from 0.04mm to 0.3mm. The paste matrix appeared light gray in color while the paste matrix was noted to be generally light gray. Thin sections were prepared at the top of sample S2 and the end of sample S3 for further microscopic analysis. Stereo microscope and SEM-ED

Testing of Penetron Waterproofing System Report No.: 95-387 Date: 01/24/95 Reference is made to our report No. 94-6175, dated December 21, 1994. In that report, effects of Penetron coating on the properties of concrete were reported. As indicated in that report, the depth of penetration of some of the components of Penetron were as deep as 50 mm, although most penetrations were down to 10 mm depths of the concrete surface. At the Client's request, additional studies were performed to determine and photograph the type of materials penetration or diffusing into the concrete from the Penetron coating. In order to perform these tests, the test techniques used were scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray diffraction methods. TEST RESULTS 1. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Tests The concrete core section tested, was coated with a minimum of gold in order to provide a surface which could be studied by light microscopy and compared to the SEM images. The photographs tak

en under SEM are presented on Attachment I. 2. X-Ray Diffraction Analysis According to the attached four spectrums of x-ray diffraction, there is a calcium accumulation in the concrete below the Penetron coating to 25 to 50 mm depths. Calcium appears to be in the form of Ca(OH)2 and calcium-silicate gel. Obviously, these crystalline growths are the diffusion products of the components of the Penetron coating on the concrete surface. Below 50 mm depths Ca(OH)2 is less while the silica content (from the cement) becomes dominant. - 51 - Integral Capillary System Concrete Waterproofing CONCLUSIONS Based on these test results, it is our opinions that Penetron coated concrete surfaces develop improved concrete microstructure and waterproofing properties.
