Skarholem Parking Deck
Stockholm, Sweden

BACKGROUND
High amount of chlorides in the parking stalls and main slabs due to salts and chlorides brought in by cars during the winter caused severely damaged concrete.

SOLUTION
One section of a suspended slab, 600m², was completely removed and Krystol Internal Membrane (KIM) was added to the new concrete mix. The KIM concrete was poured in place at a 30cm thickness and pumped from a distance of 100m from outside the parking garage.

KIM was also used in the parking ramp and in the parking stalls totaling an additional area of 300m2 at 8cm thickness.

The resulting KIM slab was excellent with virtually no cracks. Any minor cracks that did occur were repaired through the unique seal-sealing ability of the Krystol technology.

Subsequent KIM concrete pours totaling 10,000m2 will follow in this building due to the great success of KIM!
