Waterproofing at Kirribilli by
Projex
"Admiralty Gardens" at 5 Peel St
in Kirribilli is an 8-story block of units built
some 30 years ago. The block has panoramic views
from the Harbour Bridge through to the Opera House,
Fort Denison and Rose Bay.
| The roof has 2 failed waterproofing
systems on it (an acrylic and a bitumen sheet -
done at different times in the buildings lifespan
- allowing water into the top units below.
|

|
Architect, Alexander Tzannes, has
been retained by the Body Corporate to design and
co-ordinate the conversion of the roof to an entertainment
area to utilise the spectacular views.
|

|
The roof was waterproofed using
Wolfin S self-adhesive membrane - after removal
of both layers of old membranes and a protective
topping layer between the membranes. After the membrane
application pavers on pads were placed over the
top to allow the free flow of water over the membrane.
This system minimises the weight load on the roof
whilst also having a cooling effect on the building
and giving a smart appearance to the whole roof
deck.
|
Haramis Waterproofing, experienced
licensed Wolfin Applicators, were engaged to install
the waterproofing to the building.
The Wolfin System was chosen because
of its proven track record and reliability in Sydney
as well as its resistance to salt and its flexibility
over existing structures.
