Located in Döşemealtı, Antalya, this living-city project of 37 duplex villas – with 25,000 m² of built area, social and leisure facilities, sports areas, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness and spa centres – was solved from foundation to roof with FOX BAU products. High-Performance Waterproofing Applications At the Şimal Kuzey Yıldızı Houses by Zima İnşaat, one of Antalya’s established developers, FOX MULTISEAL FS478 – a cement and polymer dispersion based, fully flexible waterproofing designed for all reinforced concrete surfaces – was applied to the retaining walls, chosen for its permanence, durability and fast reaction with concrete. It was applied in 3 coats at 3.5 kg/m², 14,250 kg in total. Before application, all tie-rod pipes in the walls were removed and filled with the fine repair mortar FOX SILK MORTAR FC125; 5×5 coves were formed at the wall joints with the high-strength thixotropic repair mortar FOX MORTAR FC188 T. To minimise separation at the cove, mesh was bonded with FOX MULTISEAL FS478 before the waterproofing. The one-component, hydrophobic, cement-based FOX CRYSTALISER FS265, applied from the negative and positive side, was then applied at 3 kg/m². The tie-rod holes on the outer pool wall were repaired with FOX SILK MORTAR FC125, 5×5 coves formed with FOX MORTAR FC188 T and FOX CRYSTALISER FS265 applied at 3 kg/m². The ongoing pool, wet-area and balcony waterproofing of the project will be completed with FOX BAU products.
