Waterproofing of podiums is a different challenge for Construction Engineers. Conventional "sit-on" systems fail when mother slab vibrates and cracks due to moving loads and large span structure of podiums. Floating FX is an answer on this challenge.
FLOATING XF SYSTEM FOR PODIUMWATERPROFFING
- 7. Floating XF system is THE ANSWER
- 10. 1. Thorough cleaning using Grinder / Scrubber and Blower (we suggest to grind the surface)
- 11. 2. Application of XF primer to top surface of mother slab to make it dustproof.
- 12. 3. Laying of XF film on the slab as per designed layout with XF tape on the slab & film, film & film, film & wall
- 13. 4. Fixing XF film on column offsets as per fabrication details with XF tape
- 17. 
- 19. Floor piece first XF tapes on all ends of floor piece Wall piece over floor piece XF tapes on all ends of wall piece
- 20. 4. Fixing XF film near down take pipes as per fabrication details
- 21. 4. Fixing XF film on at rainwater outlets as per fabrication details
- 22. 5. Application of XF Bond on XF film and XF tape
- 24. Laying of mortar & placing wearing course (tiles / Tremix / Interlocking blocks) to the desired slope
- 25. Laying of mortar & placing wearing course (tiles / Tremix / Interlocking blocks) to the desired slope
- 26. 7. Finishing the up stands with XF coat (close view)
- 27. 7. Finishing the up stands with XF coat
- 28. FLOATING XF SYSTEM SIT – ON SYSTEMS 1. Cost effective 1. Expensive 2. Has longer life since XF film does not decay / disintegrate 2. Less durable 3. Less chances of failure (failure occurs only due to human negligence) 3. High chances of failure since system cracks when mother slab cracks. 4. No curing is required 4. Curing is required. 5. Execution is very fast. 5. Takes lot of time. 6. Satisfactory and long lasting results. 6. Unsatisfactory results.
- 29. Since XF film is a comparatively delicate material following precautions have to be observed during execution. 1. The surface of mother slab has to be smooth free of any piercing outcrop of aggregates / binding wire & steel (we suggest to grind the surface) 2. No one should walk over the film with footwear. 3. After the film is laid, see that no stray animals run or walk over it.
- 30. 4. No one should smoke in the work area, including engineers and owners 5. While laying the wearing course, the movement of workers has to be over packaging foam planks. 6. The wearing course material should not be dumped on the film 7. In case, any hole or damage to the film is observed, do not hide it, it can be repaired (stitch in time saves nine)
- 31.  Pebbles (Rainbow Housing) – Bavdhan.  Forest County (Clover – Vascon JV) – Kharadi.  Amrutwel (Riswadkar Associates) - Warje.  Aureli (Acme Landmarks) – Ambegaon.  Kimaya ( Pate Developers) – Bibewadi.
- 32.  Site visit ( Essential ).  System design.  Technical Specifications and Support.  Provision of trained applicator anywhere in the country.  Supply of components of the system.  Turn key execution including all above.
