Blindside or pre-applied waterproofing is one of the most complex building enclosure systems to design and construct in a watertight condition. During design, consultants must consider the geotechnical report, support of excavation systems, and many complex details that are possible in hydrostatic conditions. Learners are provided with solutions to design blindside waterproofing system to maintain a dry foundation and provide the building owner with a valuable warranty.
Moisture within a roof is detrimental to the energy efficiency and long-term performance of the roof system. This webinar will provide a basic understanding of today’s leak-detection equipment options, methods of roof moisture detection, and critical components of a detailed moisture survey report. We will also discuss methods of assessment and verification as well as when moisture surveys are critical to a project’s success.
