The Integration Bridge is the second major traffic connection between Brazil and Paraguay, spanning the Paraná River, between the towns of Presidente Franco (Paraguay) and Foz do Iguacu (Brazil). The new bridge provides a much-needed boost in capacity for cargo transport, easing the bottleneck of the Friendship Bridge, first commissioned in 1965, which has hampered traffic for years. Access to the Integration Bridge will remain limited until May 2025 due to ongoing infrastructure work that will enhance access to the new bridge.

The R$463 million (US$84 million) construction project was carried out by a consortium, Construbase-Cidade-Paulitec, and also includes work on connector roads on the Brazilian side and compensation for residents who were displaced due to the bridge location. The Integration Bridge is 760 m (2,500 feet) long with a free span of 470 m (1,550 feet) – the longest in Latin America. The bridge accommodates two single 3.6 m-wide lanes, a 3 m-wide shoulder, and a 1.7 m-wide sidewalk. The final bridge height is about 174 m (575 feet).

For the project engineers at Construbase-Cidade-Paulitec, protecting the underlying concrete structure of the bridge deck from deterioration, especially corrosion of steel, was a priority. Penetron Brazil was asked to provide a durable concrete waterproofing solution to secure a longer bridge service life – and reduce downstream maintenance and repair costs.

After review by Construbase-Cidade-Paulitec, the Penetron System was specified. PENETRON, a topical crystalline waterproofing material, was applied to all the joints of the consolidation plates of the bridge deck. PENETRON ADMIX, a crystalline waterproofing admixture, was used in the underlying concrete plates, and PENESEAL PRO, a spray-on liquid sealer, was sprayed over the entire bridge deck as a final coating.

The Penetron System was also chosen because it has been proven to perform in similar highway and bridge construction projects around the world. According to Claudio Neves Ourives, Managing Partner and CEO of Penetron Brasil. “The final results for the Integration Bridge project exceeded the builder’s expectations!”

The 3rd largest city in Vietnam and that country’s busiest seaport that serves Hanoi and the Red River Delta region, Hai Phong is a major economic and industrial center. Blessed with historic colonial-era architecture at its center, this city of around 2.1 million inhabitants is the cultural and technological center of Vietnam’s Northern Coast region.

Located in the Do Son district (adjacent to the Do Son peninsula) of Hai Phong, about 22 km (14 miles) south of the city center, the Dragon Ocean Do Son Resort covers an area of 480 hectares (1,190 acres) of reclaimed land. The project is the largest coastal urban development in northern Vietnam and the largest eco-tourism development in the Hai Phong region.

A town square with fountains forms the center of this mixed-use development, which integrates a business district (with offices and state-of-the-art conference and seminar centers), a commercial center (with supermarkets, retail stores, restaurants, cafes, and cinemas), and a 5-star Wyndham Hotel with 303 rooms and 42 villas. Amenities include: a 27-hole golf course, an artificial lake, a water amusement park with freshwater & saltwater swimming pools, and playgrounds.

Due to the location of the Dragon Ocean Do Son Resort on reclaimed land right on the ocean shore, high groundwater levels at the construction site needed to be addressed. Penetron Vietnam was approached by the general contractor Hoa Binh to provide a robust and durable concrete waterproofing solution.

PENETRON ADMIX was ultimately specified to treat almost 18,000 m3?(24,000 yds3) of concrete for the below-grade concrete structures of the foundation slabs, retaining walls, and underground water storage tanks used by the hotel, retail stores, and offices – as well as the town square fountains.

Formed in 1970 through a merger of five North African banks (African Arab Bank, Bank of North Africa, Al-Kafela Bank, Al-Nahda Bank, and Commercial Bank), Wahda Bank is a Libyan banking and financial services institution with 76 branch offices across the country. The bank’s main offices are located on Gamal Abdal Nasser Street in Benghazi, which is in close proximity to the Mediterranean Sea.

The new Wahda Bank Building comprises five above-ground floors housing the offices with the ground floor customer areas, and a below-grade basement floor. Notably, the natural ground level of the construction site was only 1 m (3 feet) above sea level. This contributed to the extensive deterioration of the foundation of the previous building because of the saturated environment and chemical attacks (sulfates, chlorides, and other harmful elements in the groundwater and soil) – and hastened the decision to construct a new building.

As a result of the harsh coastal conditions, the project engineers required an effective waterproofing solution to prevent any chloride ion penetration and resulting corrosion of the reinforced concrete structures of the new Wahda Bank Building.

Initially, the engineers at Assarh Engineering specified a waterproofing membrane system to protect the below-grade structures from the corrosive environment. However, Penetron North Africa showed the engineers how an integral waterproofing solution based on PENETRON ADMIX, a crystalline concrete waterproofing admixture, would provide less permeable concrete with increased durability and resistance to chloride ion penetration, as well as speed up the construction schedule and reduce labor costs.

After the consultation with Penetron North Africa, Assarh Engineering and Golden Gate Contracting, the project’s general contractor, revised the project specifications and replaced the waterproofing membrane system with PENETRON ADMIX-treated concrete. El Reehab Concrete, the concrete ready-mix supplier, delivered the PENETRON ADMIX-treated concrete for the raft foundation slab and retaining walls. PENEBAR SW-45A was used to permanently seal the construction joints.

Compared to conventional waterproofing membrane systems, the Penetron solution turned out to be substantially more economical for the Wahda Bank.

The $140 million project was designed by Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture, a Chicago-based architecture, planning, and interior design firm. With two 20-story residential towers of curved edges, the Albion in the Gulch development features 415 residential units, offered in studio, 1, 2, & 3-bedroom layouts, as well as 2-bedroom townhome units. Fifteen townhomes are on the 4th floor between each tower and five are on the 20th floor of the east tower.

The 4th floor splits the building into two towers and features an outdoor plaza with a large terrace, golf putting green, BBQ stations, and indoor/outdoor fitness center. The 20th floor of the west tower will have an outdoor deck with a pool and tiki bar. Further amenities include a comedy club/karaoke venue, coffee shop, indoor dog run, spa, golf putting greens and simulation room, and 10,000 ft2 (910 m2) dedicated to co-working space.

Nashville Ready-Mix added PENETRON ADMIX SB during batching to all concrete used for the foundation slabs, the below-grade retaining walls that protect the basement structures, and elevator pits. PENEBAR SW waterstop strips were also used in the new concrete elements to permanently seal all construction joints.

A picturesque town of about 175,000 inhabitants, Campbelltown has a historic center and is adjacent to the Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan, the country's largest botanical garden, and Dharawal National Park. The city is located on the outskirts of the Sydney metropolitan area in New South Wales, about 55 km (34 miles) southwest of the Sydney central business district.

Together with the Camden Hospital, the newly expanded Campbelltown Hospital has served the southwest suburban communities of Sydney (NSW), Australia since 1977. Since then, the facility has undergone numerous expansions and upgrades. The second and final phase of construction, a A$632 million (US$447.65 million) hospital redevelopment project, added a new 12-floor clinical services building. This facility doubles the hospital’s ICU bed capacity, increases the number of maternity beds, and expands mental health services. A multi-story car parking garage with seven levels and over 800 spaces was also added as part of the project.

Due to the high groundwater level at the construction site in Campbelltown, Penetron Australia collaborated with the project’s general contractor to provide an effective concrete mix design with a very low permeability. This effectively converts the concrete into a waterproofing element with built-in self-healing capabilities for any microcracks that may emerge. As a result, PENETRON ADMIX was specified to waterproof all below-grade concrete structures, exposed terraces, roof slabs, and hospital helipad. PENEBAR SW swellable waterstops were also applied to permanently seal all construction joints.

This brand new, state-of-the-art hospital will be the latest addition for the Al Arab Medical Group.

The 27-storey tower will house a wide range of medical facilities including a 24/7 emergency department, inpatient and outpatient services, the latest technology operating theaters, intensive care unit, a natal intensive care unit, diagnostic imaging, pharmacy and a rehabilitation center.

The close proximity to the Red Sea and Obhur Creek presented a notable challenge for the project engineers of the main contractor Zawaya Construction. An effective solution to waterproof and protect the 1.6m-thick basement raft was required.

Penetron Middle East worked closely with Zawaya Construction and ultimately Penetron Admix was specified to ensure the impermeability and durability of the slab. Penetron Admix is a convenient solution as it is added directly to new concrete at the time of batching. This not only reduces the construction time but provides effective concrete protection against the ingress of seawater even under high hydrostatic pressure. Penetron Admix has been proven to reduce penetration of a wide variety of chemical such as chlorides to prevent corrosion of the steel reinforcement and extend the service life of treated concrete.

At Al Arab Hospital, Penetron Admix was added by using soluble bags that are mixed into the concrete of the ready-mix drum of approx. 11,000m3 of raft concrete.

The comprehensive redevelopment of Doha’s port took four years to transform a previous combined marina/cargo port into the Old Doha Port, a new tourist destination and marina for yachts and cruise ships. The project comprised the renovation and new construction of over 50 cafés and restaurants, >100 shops and businesses, many with marine activities and water sports, 150 hotel apartments, and a 30-room hotel.

Due to its strategic location next to the Corniche in the center of Doha, it became one of the main centers for fan events during the 2022 FIFA World Cup and since then remained a popular nightlife destination.

During the planning phase of the Old Doha Port project, it was evident that the quayside concrete marine structures and the extended sea wall of the new port terminal would require a durable waterproofing solution for the concrete piers, walls and slabs exposed to seawater – and chloride penetration, a major cause of concrete deterioration. DAR, the project’s technical consultant, asked Penetron to provide a durable waterproofing solution after reviewing a range of different waterproofing products including polyurea coatings, which proved to be unsuitable or too costly.

Ultimately, PENETRON, a crystalline topical material, was specified for the new marine structures and seawall. Applied as a slurry on prepared concrete surfaces, it creates a waterproof barrier to any further chloride ion penetration to prevent the onset of corrosion of the embedded steel.

In total 7,100m2 of seawall were treated with PENETRON against water and chloride ion ingress.
