Every year, thousands of structures around the world-from tunnels and dams to commercial and industrial buildings-are affected by water seepage, unstable soils and extreme environmental conditions. These issues, often underestimated in the initial stages of design or construction, can lead to enormous repair costs and, more seriously, to major risks to the safety of people and investment.
🛑 Major vulnerabilities in underground infrastructure
✔️ Geotechnical instability: Infiltration washes away fine soil particles, weakening the ground and increasing the risk of collapse.
✔️ Excessive hydrostatic pressure: Water accumulation exerts extreme forces on tunnel walls and foundations, causing cracking, settlement and partial collapse.
✔️ High maintenance costs: Lack of effective waterproofing solutions leads to frequent interventions, delays and additional costs.
🏢 Critical issues in civil engineering
✔️ Corrosion of concrete reinforcements: Water and moisture affect the strength structure, accelerating degradation.
✔️ Undermining foundations: constant damp reduces the bearing capacity of the ground, causing settlement and cracking.
✔️ Increased indoor humidity promotes damp and mold, affecting occupants’ health and air quality.
✔️ Electrical hazards: leaks can cause short circuits and fires.
✔️ Damage to finishes: plaster, paint, flooring and other materials can be damaged, leading to high repair costs.
Integrated infrastructure solutions
In these conditions, traditional strengthening and waterproofing technologies become insufficient, requiring advanced, globally proven solutions. That is where the partnership between FS TECHNOLOGIES and Normet, an international leader in injection technologies, shotcrete and chemical solutions for infrastructure, steps in.
