Our featured project this month is the Camelback Ranch, which is the spring training facility for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Chicago White Sox.
The initial specification for this project was for a slurry broadcast of Quartz aggregate throughout the facility. However, during the construction process, it was discovered that the moisture readings, via calcium chloride testing, read on average 4.5lbs. Industry standard dictates that the moisture level for non-permeable floors be 3lbs. or less. Coating Solutions, the project contractor, came to APF for a solution. APF worked with them to implement the APF Moisture Remediation system in order to be able to move to the next step of installing the slurry broadcast floor.
Approximately 29,000 sq.ft. of auxiliary buildings, which consisted of concession stands, kitchens, and restrooms were coated. For each side of the stadium (Dodgers and White Sox), they coated all restrooms, showers, and kitchens for a total of 17,000 sq.ft.
The following process was used:
- Preparation of concrete to 20 mil profile via shot blasting and diamond grinding
- Filling of joints with APF EMS Joint Filler
- Application of APF's Moisture Remediation System
- Application of cove base with APF Epoxy 400 and 3M Quartz
- Application of first broadcast with APF Epoxy 400/slurry mix, broadcast 3M Quartz to refusal
- Application of second broadcast with APF Epoxy 400 and 3M Quartz to refusal
- Grout coating of APF Epoxy 400 in restrooms and showers
- Grout coating of APF Epoxy 600 in concessions and kitchens
- Top coating of floors with APF Poly 100 UVR
