The Art Gallery of NSW redevelopment, known as ‘Sydney Modern’ sits in The Domain in Sydney, adjacent to the naval base Garden Island. Waterproofing Integrity has been involved in consultation around the design and application in addition to onsite testing, which included inspecting a waterproofing membrane that had been buried since the 1930s.
Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) was used on the membrane once exposed, which sat above fuel tanks used by the Navy which will become gallery spaces upon the projects completion. Waterproofing Integrity determined that although the membrane being in a good condition given its age, it would still need to be replaced given the damage during excavation. Waterproofing Integrity would return to ensure the new layers of torch-on membrane were continuous prior to concrete pours.
