As a result, our Australian and international clients have confidence that they will receive consistently reliable results and service that meet NPAAC, AS ISO and AS ISO/IEC standards. NATA accreditation is important in providing market confidence that our members have adhered to national accreditation standards. This continuous tensile strength testing for membranes oversight ensures that our partner laboratories maintain their standards over time. NATA accreditation is based on ISO/IEC 17025, which includes all ISO 9001 requirements plus additional technical requirements specific to testing laboratories. Know that your samples are analysed by independently assessed laboratories operating to ISO/IEC international standards.
NATA-Accredited Laboratory Partne
The Projex Mission is to source and supply technically excellent products to meet the needs of owners, designers, insurers and operators of buildings and structures for specialist protection against water, industrial liquids, impact and corrosion risk
This is the consequence of current construction waterproofing practices possessing ineffective quality control measures. Find out more about how we can help you achieve the best waterproofing compliance outcome. Our professional objectivity enables us to provide you with the most appropriate compliance recommendations. Our qualified team knows exactly what to look for when performing a thorough onsite waterproofing inspection. Our specialist team is fully licensed and holds both Australian and internationally recognised certificatio
Membrane manufacturing can be technically challenging and in the last few years tensile strength testing for membranes the membrane centre has established a new laboratory for purpose of developing new membrane material for gases and liquid. We have the experience and resources to ensure your accreditation provides you and your organisation with unique advantages. Our active role in international accreditation education has seen us conduct training in over 20 countries. NATA has been training individuals and teams both nationally and internationally for over 20 years and enjoys a global reputation for the quality of its courses and programs. NATA members receive a globally-recognised, peer-reviewed and government endorsed accreditation that provides a unique level of assurance to members, their clients and the communit
Implementing Proper Falls and Drainage in External Waterproofing Systems
A well-designed gradient ensures that water is efficiently directed towards drainage points, minimising the risk of pooling and ingress. It encompasses various aspects of installation, from substrate preparation and membrane application to ensuring proper water drainage and membrane termination. The Projex Mission is to source and supply technically excellent products to meet the needs of owners, designers, tensile strength testing for membranes insurers and operators of buildings and structures for specialist protection against water, industrial liquids, impact and corrosion risk
This involves careful design to minimise the risk of water ingress and redirecting it away from the building to prevent damage to nearby properties. By meticulously preparing substrates, selecting compatible materials, designing effective drainage, and carefully addressing membrane terminations and penetrations, the risk of water ingress can be minimised. The final layer of an external waterproofing system often involves the application of overlays or finishes. To maximise the durability and effectiveness of external waterproofing systems, incorporating protective measures and finishes is essential. These terminations must be designed and executed meticulously to ensure that water does not bypass the waterproof barrier at edges, corners, and transitions. The correct termination of waterproofing membranes is crucial for the overall effectiveness of the waterproofing system.
Membrane Terminations: Essential for Preventing Water Ingress
There are 5 main types of waterproofing membranes that are differentiated by the way they are attached to the substrate and held in position; ballasted, fully bonded, inverted roofs, mechanically fastened & partially bonded. Independent Testing Australia (ITA) is equipped with specialised apparatus to test materials and provide data to coating manufacturers, specifiers, builders and waterproofers to determine product suitability for use in the Australian construction industry and satisfy documentation requirements of the Australian Building Code (BCA), the National Construction Code (NCC) and Australian Paint Approval Scheme specifications (APAS). As such, specific consideration should be given to the curing of a membrane, in relation to both the product type as well as the area of application. The same membrane installed to both internal and external areas, may have a vastly different curing time in each area, depending on variables such as temperature, relative humidity, and airflow. Inherently the ambient conditions for internal areas and external areas are likely to differ, and this is likely to have a significant impact on the curing of a membrane system.
Ensuring Effective Waterproofing Through Design and Application
By adhering to these standards, professionals ensure that buildings are adequately protected against water ingress, thereby preserving structural integrity and preventing moisture-related damage. It is essential to carefully consider each area of a building’s integral requirements when selecting a high-quality waterproofing membrane to ensure long-lasting protection against water ingress. In order to maintain healthy living conditions and to preserve the integrity of a building and its property, it is crucial to avoid the accumulation of water in internal wet areas. These standards are designed to guide contractors, builders, and engineers in the selection of materials and the installation of waterproofing systems for external above-ground use, such as balconies, decks, and roof
