Sealing Cold Joints with Waterstops
By Stacy Byrd
Available in a variety of profiles and materials, waterstops play a major role in preventing water leakage at cold joints.
Waterstops for Expansion Joints
By Dan Chapman
Properly installed waterstops can prevent water from penetrating expansion joints, despite significant movement in the concrete.
Basement Backfill and Drainage
Rigid foam boards and dimple drain sheets are just two of the options available to relieve hydrostatic pressure and prevent damage to the waterproofing membrane during backfill.
The Key to a Successful Roof Coating
By James R. Kirby
New technology makes it possible to extend roof life and reduce energy use without removing the existing membrane, creating dramatic savings.

Superstop is a composite waterstop containing expandable, granular bentonite. One edge is layered with a pressure sensitive adhesive. Superstop is used for sealing cold joints in concrete and to prevent water migration through construction joints below grade. Properly installed under compaction, Superstop will stop the passage of water through a static cold joint or between two abutting impermeable surfaces. Superstop is also available in saltwater grade for use in approved brackish water conditions.
