Method and composition for limiting permeability of a matrix to limit liquid and gas inflow

A method of limiting or reducing liquid and/or gas inflow through a porous matrix, comprising delivering to said porous matrix a coagulable polymer emulsion or colloid for contacting with at least one selected additive which interacts with said polymer emulsion or colloid to form a sealing barrier to reduce liquid and/or gas inflow through the porous matrix wherein said coagulable polymer emulsion or colloid contains at least one selected additive including one or a combination of radiation stabilisers to confer radiation resistance; and wherein said sealing barrier is formed by contacting said polymer emulsion or colloid with a further selected additive to cause coagulation of said polymer emulsion or colloid to form said sealing barrier. The sealing composition, which has low toxicity, preferably contains carbon black as radiation stabiliser conferring radiation resistance for the sealing barrier in the range 1 to 100 MRad.

Footing Pad

A footing pad for supporting a post or other upright structure includes a base. The base includes an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface. The base of the footing pad also includes a plurality of structural webs extending perpendicularly to a uniform height from the upper surface of the base. An uplift feature is rigidly coupled to the upper surface of the base and includes a first wall spaced substantially parallel to a second wall, with the first wall and the second wall extending substantially perpendicular from the upper surface. The uplift feature also includes a bore for receiving a fastener to secure the post. The footing pad may also include at least one positioning feature extending from the upper surface of the base and defining a bore for receiving a positioning tool.
