2. Damp proofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damp_proofing

   Integral damp proofing in concrete involves adding materials to the concrete mix to make the concrete itself impermeable. [ 4 ] Surface suppressant coating with thin water proof materials such as epoxy resin for resistance to non-pressurized moisture such as rain water or a coating of cement sprayed on such as shotcrete which can resist water ...

3. Concrete sealer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_sealer

   Concrete sealers are applied to concrete to protect it from surface damage, corrosion, and staining. They either block the pores in the concrete to reduce absorption of water and salts or form an impermeable layer which prevents such materials from passing.

4. Shotcrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotcrete

   Shotcrete, gunite (/ ˈ ɡ ʌ n aɪ t /), or sprayed concrete is concrete or mortar conveyed through a hose and pneumatically projected at high velocity onto a surface. This construction technique was invented by Carl Akeley and first used in 1907. [1]: 7 The concrete is typically reinforced by conventional steel rods, steel mesh, or fibers.

5. Cold spraying - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_spraying

   The ability for CS to deposit materials that are phase-sensitive or temperature-sensitive has positioned the technique to prepare coatings not possible with other thermal spray techniques. CS can generally be used to produce coatings of a wide variety of metals, alloys, and metal-based composites, including those materials that have an ...

6. Polished concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polished_concrete

   A diamond polished concrete floor is time-consuming. Six to twelve steps of grinding may be needed. The general rule is to start the initial grinding with a coarse 30/60-grit diamond and finish with a 1600- or 3000+ grit diamond, depending on the exposure level of aggregate and gloss level required.

7. Spray foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

   Spray foam insulation or spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is an alternative to traditional building insulation such as fiberglass. A two-component mixture composed of isocyanate and polyol resin comes together at the tip of a gun, and forms an expanding foam that is sprayed onto roof tiles, concrete slabs, into wall cavities, or through holes ...
