Integral Waterproofing of Concrete Structures demonstrates how integral waterproofing technologies can solve concrete durability problems based on performance and characterization experimental results.

This book first establishes a background about concrete structures and porosity linked with concrete hydration, then goes on to consider concrete durability problems from the perspective of water penetration including damages from freeze-thaw cycles, alkali silica reactions, and chloride ion penetration. The mechanisms, applications, performances, and limitations of waterproofing technologies including coatings and integral systems are compared. The book also showcases all application methods of crystallization waterproofing materials, including material spray on cured concrete and on fresh concrete, and their addition to concrete mix designs as enhancers or admixtures. Pore-blocking and lining waterproofing systems including silicate-based and hygroscopic kinds, and other waterproofing materials are also discussed.

Maher Al-Jabari is a full professor of chemical and environmental engineering at Palestine Polytechnic University, Palestine, and an international expert in the fields of waterproofing of construction materials, hazardous waste, and wastewater treatment. As well as achieving breakthroughs in protecting cementitious materials from environmental attacks and providing industrial durability solutions for concrete, Prof. Al-Jabari has been involved in international R&D projects in these fields, with a distinguished industrial record. Prof. Al-Jabari accomplished his industrial experience in International Chem-Crete Co., Richardson TX, USA; starting as a director of manufacturing and then directing Chem-Crete R&D activities that led to patented crystallization waterproofing technology.
