Product Description

SERVIPAK® Flex is a tough but flexible protection board made of modified bituminous compound with a fiberglass core for dimensional stability. The boards are covered with polyethylene film on both sides. To aid identification and to avoid substitution, film is printed with SERVIPAK® Flex brand on one side. SERVIPAK® Flex is made to protect the waterproofing system during backfill operation.

Installation

Vertical Installation

  1. Start at bottom of wall and apply to height of first backfill layer.
  2. Wherever possible backfill and compact in layers to minimise risk of displacement of boards.
  3. To locate boards, apply nine 150 mm x 150 mm ‘patches’ (8 towards edges and 1 in the middle) of BITUSTIK 4000 150 mm double sided bituminous tapes.
  4. Remove release film from BITUSTIK™ tape patches and apply boards to clean, dry membrane and roll/press patches firmly.
  5. Alternatively a mastic or contact adhesive recommended by GCP Applied Technologies can be used to fix the boards.
  6. Once the protection board is fixed in place, subsequent boards shall be laid continuously by butt fitting the edges. Ensure boards stay close butt joints during backfilling and compaction.
  7. Provide temporary propping of protection boar
