MasterRoc MSL 345

Spray Applied Waterproofing Membrane for Tunnel Concrete Composite Shell Linings

Material Description
  • MasterRoc® MSL 345 is an EVA polymer based sprayable membrane for the waterproofing of underground concrete structures.

  • It is spray applied in a sandwich structure between two sprayed concrete / cast concrete layers, creating a double bonded composite shell lining.

  • It is flexible and has very high bond strength properties on both sides of the membrane.

  • It is an effective alternative to conventional waterproofing sheet membranes.

  • As a double bonded system, this provides excellent water tightness, preventing the development of water migration on both sides of the membrane.

  • As with all spray applied membranes, it is not possible to seal against water ingress through the substrate. In such cases, a drainage system or local water management using drainage pipes should be used in combination with MasterRoc® MSL 345.

  • However, it can be applied to damp substrate (if there is no running water).

Areas of Application
  • Particularly well suited for underground structures with complex profiles and geometry such as stations, escape and access tunnels, utility caverns, cross passages and tunnel intersections.

  • Suitable for all types of tunnel designs.

  • Enables tunnel design with composite shell lining to reduce excavation cross section and lining thickness, and is especially suited to tunnel rehabilitations.

Characteristics and Benefits
  • Fast curing

  • Easy to use, only addition of water needed

  • Application by spraying with simple equipment

  • Elasticity 80% to 140% depending on temperature

  • No toxic components

  • No classification needed for transport

  • Available in 2 colors if specification is requiring a 2-coat application otherwise applied as a 1 coat system
