Precast concrete lift shafts
Concrete lift shafts are modular precast concrete units designed to form vertical lift cores in multi-storey construction. Each shaft is produced off-site and craned into position to minimise on-site construction time and improve consistency. Units can be installed as part of the structural core and provide a stable, enclosed environment for liftKoster Mortar Tight - waterproofing liquid additive
Koster Mortar Tight is a waterproofing liquid additive which prevents the transmission of water through renders, screeds, and/or sealing slurries. The additive Improves the density of the mortar structure, making mortar water repellent (hydrophobic), while providing self-healing of microcracks through crystallization. Mortar Tight increases theHydroCoat 104 Super - Crystalline Waterproofing of Concrete
