Rooftop Parking Deck Waterproofing

Bring vehicle wear and roof waterproofing together in a coordinated system for exposed parking decks.

UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM

What goes into it.

An exposed parking roof combines vehicle wear with the waterproofing demands of a roof. Review movement, water management and the wearing finish as connected parts of the deck system.

  1. 01

    Traffic-deck membrane

    The waterproofing layer must suit the structure’s movement and the specified traffic-deck assembly.

  2. 02

    Wearing layer & aggregate

    The traffic-bearing layer and texture are selected for turning, braking and ramps.

  3. 03

    Weather-exposed finish

    A compatible finish and line markings complete the specified deck system.

FROM SURFACE TO FINISH

How the work is approached.

A planning overview. The specified system and current technical data define the installation.

01

Review the exposed deck

Identify structural movement, joints, falls, outlets and vehicle circulation.

02

Waterproof the structure

Prepare the deck and complete the specified joints, membrane and edge details.

03

Build the wearing surface

Install the traffic-bearing layers, finish and markings, then inspect before reopening.

PLAN YOUR PROJECT

Let’s start with your surface.

Provide deck drawings and site photos. The project team should coordinate structural joints, waterproofing details and the traffic-bearing finish.

  • Deck movement, cracks and expansion joints
  • Drainage, upstands and penetrations
  • Vehicle traffic, ramps and weather exposure
