1.6 Construction Procedures

1.6.1 Surface Preparation
1.6.1.1 The concrete floor, wall and stepping concrete surface shall be wash and
clean using a water jet / water sprayer pump nozzle to remove any foreign /
loose / unwanted residue or laitance. Hacking using spade chisel can be
arrange to remove stubborn cement / concrete laitance (if any).
1.6.1.2 Rectify all concrete honeycomb, crack lines, shrinkage cracks, etc. using
non-shrink grout (if any).
1.6.1.3 Carry out surface preparation joint-inspection with client’s representative
and waterproofing specialist and make arrangement for rectification on
imperfection (if any) prior to applying swimming pool waterproofing material.

1.6.2 Waterproofing
1.6.2.1 Before the waterproofing work start, protect the working area from rain and
direct sunshine. Erect tentage and maintain temporary drainage system. Allow
installation to cure properly in dry environment. (what is tentage?)Is it
Khemah?if its really a tent, do site really want to erect it?Please discuss
among the project teams.
1.6.2.2 Waterproofing to be used is Penetron Sealcoat Elastic flexible cementitious
waterproofing slurry for 2 coats at approximately 1.0kg/coat/m2

with clean water). For improvement adhesion of screed binder to the floor
substrate, apply layer of fresh slurry bond with Portland cement mixed with
Mapei’s Planicrete SP just before laying the screed mortar. Allow screed
mortar to cure for 3 days per 10mm thickness before proceed the tile
installation.
1.6.3.2 Screeding to pool base
a. Apply a slurry coat in the following mix ratio onto the receiving substrate:
Please describe what methods site team want to measure the mix ratio. By timber yellow pale?
paint pale?
Mix ratio PLANICRETE SP OPC
Proportion by wt 1 1 to 1.5

b. After application of the slurry, proceed with screed immediately when the
slurry coat is still fresh.
Note : Screeding on a slurry coat that has already dried may result in
debonding
c. Apply a screed in the following mix ratio, and finish it with a wooden float to the
correct fall and direction.

Mix Ratio PLANICRETE SP Water Portland Cement Sand

Proportion by wt 1 3 8 24

d. Reduce amount of water dilution if the sand is wet.

e. Insert non-oxidising wire-mesh reinforcement when the screed is thicker than
50mm. wire-mesh to be put 2/3 from bottom screed.

1.6.3.3 Rendering to pool wall

a. Apply a splash coat in the following mix ratio onto the receiving concrete
substrate.

the following mix ratio:
Mix Ratio PLANICRETE SP Water Portland Cement Sand
Proportion by wt 1 3 8 24

c. Reduce amount of water dilution is the sand is wet.

d. Finish the render with a wooden float and allow it to cure for at least 7 days.

1.6.4 Tiling Work

1.6.4.1 To carry out hollowness check of the back screed/rendering prior to any
installation of tiles.
1.6.4.2 Material to be used KERABOND T GREY + ISOLASTIC 50.
1.6.4.3 Refer Product Data Sheet (attached) for product description and application.
1.6.4.4 Dampen the surface of screed/render by using hand splashing of water.
1.6.4.5 Mix Kerabond T Grey + ISOLASTIC 50 in the following ratio with a low-speed
mechanical mixer until a uniform paste are obtained without lumps. Leave the
paste to slake for few minutes and remix before use.

Mix Ratio KERABOND T GREY ISOLATIC 50

Proportion by weight 25kg 8kg

1.6.4.6 A lean coat of Kerabond T will be apply using smooth side of the trowel on
the floor screed and rendered wall and immediately after apply thickness of
Kerabond T using toothed side of the trowel onto lean coat to form groove
lines.
1.6.4.7 Apply and back scratch the tile base in single direction and lay the tile with
parallel groove direction.
1.6.4.8 Before Before laying the tile, ensure that skinning has not formed on the
surface of the adhesive. Should a skin have formed, the adhesive must be re-
notched. Then lay the tile onto the adhesive with a firm pressure.
