STRUCTURAL TRAFFIC COATING & WATERPROOFING SYSTEMS
Engineered Protection for Concrete Subjected to Movement, Moisture & Traffic
Concrete structures exposed to traffic are constantly under stress.
They are subjected to:
- Water intrusion
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- De-icing salts
- Vehicular abrasion
- Structural movement
Without proper protection, these conditions lead to progressive deterioration of the structural slab.
At Procure Surface Solutions, we engineer Structural Traffic Coating & Waterproofing Systems designed to protect concrete from water penetration, mechanical wear, and long-term degradation.
These are not coatings — they are multi-layer systems engineered to preserve structural integrity.
SYSTEM CLASSIFICATION
System Type:
Traffic-Bearing Waterproofing System
Function:
Waterproofing / Crack Bridging / Traffic Protection / Structural Preservation
Typical Thickness:
60–250+ mils depending on system design
Service Environment:
60–250+ mils depending on system design
Traffic Rating:
Pedestrian to Heavy Vehicular (including continuous traffic and turning loads)
WHY TRAFFIC WATERPROOFING MATTERS
Unprotected concrete structures deteriorate from the inside out.
Water intrusion leads to:
- Corrosion of reinforcing steel
- Concrete cracking and spalling
- Structural weakening
- Costly long-term repairs
Combined with traffic and environmental exposure:
- Abrasion from vehicles
- Salt and chemical attack
- Thermal expansion and contraction
The result:
- Accelerated structural damage
- Safety risks
- Major capital repair costs
ENGINEERED — NOT COATED
At Procure, these systems are designed as layered assemblies, each performing a specific function:
- Waterproofing
- Reinforcement
- Wear resistance
- UV protection
System design is based on:
- Substrate condition and movement
- Exposure to water and salts
- Traffic load and turning patterns
- Environmental conditions (UV, freeze-thaw)
- Drainage and slope
TYPES OF TRAFFIC & WATERPROOFING SYSTEMS
PROCURE PWM™ – Waterproofing Membrane
Flexible base layer providing the primary moisture barrier and protecting the structural slab.
PROCURE WBL™ – Broadcast Reinforcement Layer
Flexible, aggregate-reinforced layer adding strength, slip resistance, and crack-bridging capability.
PROCURE WTC™ – Traffic Wear Coat
High-build protective layer designed to withstand vehicular traffic and abrasion.
PROCURE WTC-UV™ – UV-Stable Topcoat
Protective finish ensuring UV stability, colour retention, and long-term durability.
TRAFFIC & LOAD & CLASSIFICATION
Walkways, terraces, balconies requiring slip resistance and waterproofing.
Ramps and high-turn zones requiring reinforced, high-build system design.
System design must match traffic patterns — not just surface appearance.
APPLICATION CONTEXT: NEW BUILD, RETROFIT & RESTORATION
New Construction
Protects the structure from first exposure and integrates into the building envelope.
Retrofit Applications
Restores waterproofing and extends the life of existing structures without full replacement.
Repair & Structural Restoration
Includes removal of failed systems, concrete repair, and installation of a new engineered system.
Waterproofing failure is not cosmetic — it is structural.
PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
- Complete waterproofing protection
- Crack-bridging capability
- Resistance to salts and chemicals
- High abrasion resistance
- UV stability
- Extended structural lifespan
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
These systems integrate with:
- Moisture Mitigation & Vapor Control Systems
- Substrate Engineering & Surface Preparation Systems
- Polyaspartic & Rapid-Cure Systems
- Concrete Sealing & Surface Preservation Systems
Ensures full system performance from substrate to surface.
SURFACE PREPARATION REQUIREMENTS
- Shot blasting (ICRI CSP 3–5)
Concrete repair and patching
Crack and joint treatment
Surface profiling and cleaning
Moisture evaluation
Proper preparation is critical for waterproofing performance.
LIMITATIONS & SPECIFICATION NOTES
- Requires controlled installation sequence
- Traffic must be restricted during application
- Environmental conditions must be monitored
- System continuity is essential for performance
COMMON INDUSTRY MISTAKE
Applying coatings without proper waterproofing design.
Leads to:
Water intrusion
Delamination
Premature failure
Most failures are system design failures — not product failures.
WHEN TO USE TRAFFIC WATERPROOFING
Condition | Recommended |
|---|---|
Parking garage slab | Full system |
Balcony / terrace | Pedestrian system |
Ramp / turning zones | Reinforced system |
Water + traffic exposure | Full system required |
Structural protection needed | Traffic system |
NOT JUST A COATING
These systems are selected to:
Protect the structure
Control water
Extend service life
