About DynaCrete

Our journey in revolutionizing concrete solutions began in the 1990s, leading to groundbreaking innovations in concrete treatment technology.

Our History

DynaCrete's journey began in the 1990s with groundbreaking testing of our innovative concrete solutions. Our commitment to excellence culminated in the treatment of over 3 million square feet of concrete bridge decks from 1997 to 2000. In 1997, we partnered with BC MOTH for The Island Freeway Project, an ambitious 300 km, 4-lane freeway from Victoria to Port Hardy on Vancouver Island.

Key Achievements

  • After 9 months of testing on 3 of 4 lanes totaling over half a million square feet, on 70 bridge decks, half old, half new
  • The BC MOTH approved DynaCrete PIM+ Type S and DynaCrete PTS+ (Top Coat) and specified they were to be the only products used ("No or similar") to treat the over 3 million square feet of new concrete bridge decks on the Island Freeway Project
  • Between 1998 and 2001 all the decks were treated with DynaCrete PIM+ Type S, and those bridge decks in high rainfall areas were treated a year later with DynaCrete PTS+ (Topcoat) so rain would bead up and roll off the bridge decks quicker.

Testing and Results After 20+ Years

In 2019, working with the BC MOTH, Metro Testing Engineers, and other industry experts, multiple cores were taken, tests were conducted:

Key Tests Performed:

  • ASTM C1202 Chloride Ion Permeability
  • AASHTO T259 Chloride Ponding
  • ASTM C1353 Taber Abrasion Resistance
  • Flatness Testing to measure the wear grooving due to tires

Impressive Results:
