vodostavebný beton
very watertight concrete


Explanation:
very watertight concrete has 35,000 hits, so it is probably the best term. Below is some more info

Při stavbě byl z důvodu
vodotěsnosti použit vodostavební beton

This is how they translate vodostavební beton at University in Brno:
5. Concrete for hydraulic engineering constructions.
http://www.fce.vutbr.cz/studium/predmety/predmet.asp?kod=BJ1...

Milenium has:
vodotěsný beton - integral waterproofer
vodotěsný beton - very watertight concrete
but nothing for Vodostavební beton.
Here is good definition in Czech

neutral  Martin Janda: Sorry, I am no expert in civil eng, but my Google search for "very watertight concrete" returned just 1 hit rather than 35,000 - posted in a Czech site

  -> yes, you are right. It gives you 35,000 hits if you look for those 3 words not as a phrase - my bad

vodostavebný beton
Waterproof concrete


Explanation:
This is a term I came across recently - used by a local company specialising in concrete waterproofing. Watertight is a different term, possibly used in USA.
