<P>To properly maintain deck waterproofing there must be a willingness to look at solutions based on whole-life costing rather than just short-term initial costs. There are lessons to be learned from examples of prematurely failed infrastructure due to a focus on initial short-term costs. Not only this,heavy equipment maintenance solutions any maintenance required once a bridge has been built could mean putting it out of service, causing disruption to the economy and the local community,Various series of car maintenance vehicle repair as well as having environmental impacts. The overall challenge is to carry out the maintenance work while keeping the bridge in service at all times, completing the works in the shortest possible time avoiding unnecessary costs and disruption.</P> <P>Effective long-term protection should be a given benefit of any quality waterproofing system, after which speed and ease of the application are, more often than not, the key requirements for waterproofing application. Eliminator, Stirling Lloyd’s fast curing system has allowed numerous bridges to be effectively waterproofed quickly,grinding concrete machine despite ongoing challenges.</P> <P>On one recent contract a requirement was to open the waterway – where the bridges span – at least every hour, which reduced the available productive working hours and consequently outputs per day. However, due to the system’s speed and ease of application, the contractor was still able to coat 2000m2 per day. This helped ensure fast progress on the project, disruption was minimised and the bridges being returned to service on schedule.</P> <p>Always looking to innovate, Stirling Lloyd’s in-house research and development team developed Bond Coat 3, a durable bond coat to be part of the Eliminator system,profession asphalt joint repair which is highly resistant to damage and pick-up by vehicles including site traffic in hot weather and is easily cleaned where contamination occurs. This addition to the Eliminator systems enables the asphalt binder course to be applied immediately or, if programming dictates, allows the system to be trafficked until surfacing takes place.</p> |
