‘Bitumen’

A Buildingtalk guide

Start with the news release Designing new build basement waterproofing from John Newton and Co, which we summarised at the time by saying "John Newton and Co explain the importance of the right design strategy for new build basement waterproofing.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Ultracrete can reduce road scheme costs from Instarmac: "Utility firms could face hefty charges for digging up some of the UK's busiest roads if the Government's latest proposal to impose a lane rental scheme goes ahead, according to a recent BBC report.".
 
In July 2011, we covered the news from Instarmac - take a look at Ultracrete used to repair London carriageway which says: "Ultracrete's Manhole Reinstatement System is being used to reinstate 150 manhole covers and gullies in London's Blackwall Tunnel.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Axion Recycling, Carpet Recycling holds third annual conference, as well as BBA Certificates Awarded in May from British Board of Agrement, and Ultracrete safe and secure ironwork reinstatement from Instarmac.
