Horizontal work

Proteus Pro-Prime Bitumen.

Guidance for specification option:

A cold applied bituminous solution designed to prime and seal porous roof surfaces before applying bituminous materials. Promotes the adhesion of bituminous waterproofing systems and sheet coverings. Suitable for concrete, asbestos cement, metals (mild steel, zinc and lead), slate, and lightweight concrete screeds.

Proteus Pro-Prime SA.

Guidance for specification option:

A synthetic rubber based primer for bonding Proteus Waterproofing’s range of self-adhesive membranes and vapour control layers to a variety of substrates. Suited for upstands and vertical applications.

Surface protection

-

Manufacturer guidance

The membranes and AVCLs can accept, without damage, the foot traffic and light concentrated loads associated with installation and maintenance. Where traffic over this is envisaged, such as for maintenance of lift equipment, a walkway must be provided (for example, using concrete slabs supported on bearing pads). Reasonable care should be taken to avoid puncture by sharp objects or concentrated loads.

System accessories

Not required.

Membrane walkways.

Roof membrane perimeter trims.

Termination bars.

Angle fillets.

Outlets.

Rooflights.

Other.

Manufacturer guidance

Consult manufacturer for further details and insert details/ references as appropriate.

ScheduleCompletion

The NHBC requires that the waterproofing membranes, once installed, are inspected in accordance with NHBC Standards 2022, Chapter 7.1, Clause 7.1.12, and undergo an appropriate integrity test, where required. Any damage to the membrane is repaired in accordance with section 16 of BBA certificate 22/6147 and reinspected.
