Membranes that are designed to be fully bonded to their will exhibit reduced performance where a sufficient bond is not present. Adhesion testing is a destructive test most commonly applied on exposed areas such as rooftops and podiums. Waterproofing Integrity inspectors are educated in what is required and can assess compliance with prescribed falls, terminations and detailing. Waterproofing Integrity utilise a number of types of electronic leak detection with a view to being fit for purpose and benefits that each offers. ELD creates an electric circuit through a non-conductive membrane to find coating film discontinuities that are not readily visibl
AS/NZS 4858 is the primary Australian standard that relates to the physical performance properties of waterproofing membranes specified for use in wet areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, laundries and wet rooms, to prevent water ingress and protect structures from moisture damag
Safe Environments is actively involved in slip resistance research presenting at the International Ergonomics Society, Slips Trips and Falls Group and contributes to Australian Standards Committee BD-094 Slip Resistance of Flooring Surfaces and the UK Slip Resistance Group. As every property is different, we take the time to customise our service to your specific requirements We are a family-owned national company, who have been working in the slip prevention industry since 2004 Whether you need wet pendulum testing, on-site slip resistance measurements (AS 4663), or lab testing to AS 4586, our expert technicians deliver accurate, fast, and fully certified reports. Providing frequent scheduled services to both capital and regional areas throughout Australia, we offer services in any location at highly competitive rates. Additionally, our Global Product Classification service Waterproofing Membranes for Wet Areas specialises in determining the suitability of pedestrian surface products prior to installation and during construction.

AS/NZS 4858: Wet Area Waterproofing Membrane Testing
The shoulders and grip section are Waterproofing Membranes for Wet Areas generally larger than the gauge section by 33% so they can be easily gripped. The preparation of test specimens depends on the purposes of testing and on the governing test method or specification. Uniaxial tensile testing is the most commonly used for obtaining the mechanical characteristics of isotropic material
The low voltage Vertical Surface Scanning roller listed under the guide for testing vertical substrates works by moistening the roller sleeve as Waterproofing Membranes for Wet Areas the operator rolls the testing tool up the substrate forcing the water before it into any breaches. Given Vector Mapping requires a constant flow of water over a substrate, vector mapping is not able to test vertical substrates – even with an additive in the water to create a film on a given vertical surface, the accuracy is still not reliable. In areas where there are multiple breaches, further testing needs to be undertaken each time until no more breaches are identified. If there are only puddles on the surface, then the circuit would be incomplete resulting in missed breache
If you have any questions or need project-specific advice, our Specification Team and Technical Representatives are always available Waterproofing Membranes for Wet Areas to assist you. 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. For example, a membrane designed for under-tile use, is not likely to be appropriate for usage in a planter box, and a membrane designed for use in a planter box, is not likely to be appropriate for usage on an exposed rooftop. It is important to appreciate that there are inherent differences between AS 4858 and AS 4654.1, and as such these standards cannot and should not be used interchangeably. This involves careful design to minimise the risk of water ingress and redirecting it away from the building to prevent damage to nearby propertie
