    Saint-Maurice Potable Water Reservoir Expansion

    Saint-Maurice, Canada

    Stantec engineers selected Xypex Admix C-500, an NSF 61 approved product, to provide a permanent, integral waterproofing solution by incorporating it directly into the concrete mix for the slab and walls of both new reservoir units.

    The use of Xypex Admix C-500 eliminated the need for membranes entirely, reducing long-term maintenance concerns while improving construction efficiency. The crystalline technology permanently seals capillary pores and micro-cracks, resisting water infiltration, and greatly improving the performance of the concrete against freeze-thaw cycles, and chemical attacks.

    Ultimately, the use of Xypex Admix C-500 provided a high-performance, low- maintenance waterproofing system that met the technical and operational goals of the reservoir expansion project. It also contributed to long-term cost savings and environmental compliance by protecting the quality of drinking water and ensuring the durability of the reservoirs.
