Waterproofing the highest structure in Australia
Situated on the side of Mt Kosciuszko (2228 metres high) and approximately 50 metres in altitude below its peak is a new toilet block. The building is constructed from concrete and masonry block and is built into the side of the mountain at Rawsons Pass. When completed only the maintenance access doors and the main entry / exit for the general public will be visible.
The whole of the building excluding the doorways has been enveloped in the Wolfin membrane waterproofing system. The Wolfin membrane will not only keep moisture from entering the building via the roof, walls and floor but it can also contain the effluent within the building should any internal ruptures occur, keeping the surrounding external environment free from contaminants. |
