W-R-Meadows - Concrete Vapor Barriers Brochure

When water vapor is not controlled, and is allowed to seep through concrete slabs, it’s not just building owners, designers, and contractors who suffer with damage that translates into major costs and expenses. The health of the public and the workers who use that building is also threatened and impacted negatively. What’s more is that water vapor that contains alkali can also cause the structural failure of the concrete, especially when reinforced steel is present.  Ultimately, in order to prevent unnecessary costs, building failure, and negative health risks from presenting themselves, protection is needed—and that comes in the form of a concrete vapor barrier provided by W. R. Meadows.
