Protecting Natural Sandstone Steps: Methods and Application
When choosing protective products for natural sandstone steps, the focus should be on:
- Preserving the original color and breathability of the stone.
- Enhancing hardness and density to improve durability.
- Strengthening anti-seepage properties to prevent damage.
Methods for Protecting Natural Sandstone Steps
1. Controlling Moisture and Preventing Alkali Reversion
One method involves blocking moisture at the bottom of the stone to stop the medium responsible for alkali reversion. However, this method presents challenges:
- If the stone floor lacks proper waterproofing, it becomes extremely difficult to waterproof from the surface.
- A surface-only waterproofing approach results in water accumulation beneath the stone, which expands due to its higher expansion coefficient, leading to peeling and holes over time.
2. Using Alkali Inhibitory Protective Agents
A more effective approach is using a solvent-based protective agent infused with alkali inhibitory factors. These agents:
- Penetrate the stone, transporting alkali inhibitors inside.
- Decompose, neutralize, and filter alkali salt solutions within the stone.
- Maintain air permeability, ensuring the stone breathes properly while controlling alkali issues.
Case Study: Red Natural Sandstone Steps in Exterior Wall Decoration
Project Overview
- Application Product: Stone aluminum honeycomb composite panel (Model: EIC27D-J10)
- Design Unit: Keyclad Limited
- Location: Barnsley Academy, UK
Barnsley Academy, an esteemed educational institution in the UK with Beacon Status Award recognition, serves over 9,000 students from 70+ countries.
The college selected stone honeycomb panels with red natural sandstone steps for the exterior wall decoration of its teaching building.
Why Stone Honeycomb Panels?
- Joint width: Only 10mm, maintaining a sleek look.
- Installation method: Fastener-type system for quick and easy installation.
- Maintenance advantage: Each panel can be separately disassembled, simplifying future repairs.
To preserve a traditional brick wall effect, the designer avoided significant facade size divisions. Weisen's red natural sandstone steps honeycomb panel delivered a simple and natural aesthetic, while eliminating on-site secondary processing and traditional riveting installation, enhancing safety.
Environmental and Structural Benefits
- The stone honeycomb panel is a composite of natural stone and aluminum honeycomb, providing higher strength and safety.
- This enhances stone utilization, helping preserve natural, non-renewable stone resources.
By combining protective treatments with advanced composite technology, natural sandstone steps can be effectively preserved while offering long-lasting durability in architectural applications.
