Waterproof concrete can be divided into four types according to the preparation method.

Waterproof concrete is a specialized type of concrete designed to resist the penetration of water. It achieves high impermeability through various methods, such as optimizing aggregate grading, reducing water content, and incorporating suitable admixtures. The quality of the mix must be uniform and dense, with proper wet curing to prevent cracking caused by dry shrinkage. This type of concrete is specifically engineered to meet waterproofing requirements and is commonly used in structures exposed to pressurized water. There are four main types of waterproof concrete based on their preparation methods: 1. **Improved Aggregate Grading Concrete** – This method focuses on enhancing the particle size distribution of aggregates to reduce permeability. 2. **High-Cement Content Concrete with Ultrafine Fillers** – By increasing the cement content and adding fine powders, the density and impermeability of the concrete are improved. 3. **Admixture-Enhanced Waterproof Concrete** – Special chemical admixtures are added to improve the water resistance and overall performance of the concrete. 4. **Special Cement-Based Waterproof Concrete** – This type uses specific cements that have inherent waterproof properties. The impermeability rating of waterproof concrete is determined by the ratio of the maximum water head it can withstand to the minimum thickness of the structure. Proper construction techniques are essential, including uniform pouring, avoiding segregation, thorough vibration, extended moisture curing, and strict control of the water-cement ratio. Waterproof concrete is classified into five grades: P4, P6, P8, P10, and P12, each representing different levels of water resistance. These grades are crucial for selecting the appropriate type of concrete for specific applications, such as basements, tunnels, and underground structures. Its use ensures long-term durability and protection against water damage, making it an essential material in modern construction projects.
