Makeen 88 Project – Basement Waterproofing, Aarith District, Riyadh

Located in the Aarith district, an area known for high groundwater levels, the 3,800 m³ basement required a robust waterproofing solution to prevent water ingress and ensure durability. Products Used: Xypex Admix C-1000 NF, Xypex Concentrate Scope: Raft foundation, retaining walls, and joints Details: Xypex Admix was integrated into the concrete for full-depth waterproofing, while Xypex Concentrate was applied to joints and critical areas to enhance sealing. The crystalline technology blocks pores and micro-cracks within the concrete. Outcome: A watertight, durable basement structure with strong resistance to groundwater and reduced maintenance requirements.
