Tunnel waterproofing systems have several key components. They include a support surface, compensation layer, drainage element, waterproof membrane, protective layer, partitioning element, and injection/control element. Hybrid systems combine active and passive barrier technologies. There are different types of tunnel waterproofing systems as well, such as spray applied, crystalline integral, sheet membrane, epoxy liner, and PVC membrane systems. Each have their own application methods and purposes for waterproofing tunnels.
