FASTFOOT PREVENTS WATER & MUD CONTAMINATION OF CONCRETE
Pouring concrete in wet weather leads to
contamination of the concrete with mud and water in the
excavation unless protected with the footing membrane.
Fastfoot® prevents all contamination of the concrete with
water and mud, producing a stronger concrete, and ensuring
there is adequate coverage of the steel reinforcing with
concrete.
Concrete footings formed with lumber
provide no protection against ground contamination and
excess water. The weakened concrete can compromise the
strength of steel reinforcing by not providing sufficient
depth of uncontaminated concrete. Furthermore excess water
mixing with the concrete leads to higher levels of rising
damp, causing dampness and possible mold in the building.
