Membrane: Waterproofing should be applied over all exposed substrate surfaces, particularly concrete. Membrane under pressure slabs on the ground can extend under the foundation walls and over the pile caps. Foundation waterproofing must extend above grade a minimum of 8 inches.

Where can I use waterproofing?

Waterproofing is used in reference to building structures (such as basements, decks, or wet areas), watercraft, canvas, clothing (raincoats or waders), electronic devices and paper packaging (such as cartons for liquids).

Where do you put waterproofing membranes?

Foundation waterproofing membrane is always installed on the outside of the building to create positive waterproofing, which means that the hydrostatic pressure created by the water pushes the membrane against the structure.
