Due to the timing of the opening of the smash hit musical ‘Hamilton’, Cemplas had to design and install a waterproofing system that could be delivered both within budget and an ambitious 15-week programme; there was simply no scope for delays.
Delta cavity membranes were applied to the walls and floors across a range of different areas including the comms and plant rooms as well as the Orchestra Pit and below the stage itself. Sika 1 waterproof render was also applied to a range of areas including WC’s, bars and the theatre’s main boiler room. RIW’s Bituthene 4000 was applied to a range of areas to complement the overall waterproofing design.
