We are able to resolve water intrusion problems in your building faster than our competitors. We not only offer quicker, safer results, but also cost savings to our clients by our proven knowledge of the industry. BRUNTCO uses our specialized rigs, which are designed specifically for this niche construction service and are not general-purpose drilling systems. Also, our small crew size helps to keep our costs down, while not becoming an intrusion to other trades. This targeted approach is a direct result of our company's deep expertise in the precast concrete industry.
In August of 2021 PCI (Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute) said in their FAQ Fridays, weepholes are recommended in precast planks after installation to prevent damage from trapped water.
WEEP HOLES ARE A CRITICAL COMPONENT of hollow core planks to prevent water from becoming trapped inside the cores, which can lead to cracking, degrade planks over time, structural damage, and promote the potential for mold growth.
WEEPHOLES OFFER THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR early water intrusion detection. When weepholes are properly placed, they can identify water infiltration and allow for repairs before damage occurs. Weepholes are critical for the safety and efficiency of overhead trades by preventing water accumulation that can lead to dangerous working conditions. Trapped water can cause significant problems for workers and your construction timeline.
WEEPHOLES ALLOW the voids of hollow core planks to drain and dry out, preventing humidity, condensation, Our controlled feed rate prevents the drill from being forced off-course, which is especially important for weephole drilling and results in a cleaner hole.
A WEEPHOLE DRILLING COMPANY should be knowledgeable in Precast Hollowcore Planks, understand the internal structure of hollowcore planks, erection of planks and structural requirements to ensure proper placement of weepholes to avoid damaging the planks.
