Wednesday 18th October 2006
RIW hosted a free
lunchtime technical seminar at The Architecture Centre,
Bristol to give guidance to local architects and engineers
in identifying common problems associated with waterproofing
today’s structures and how to avoid them.
The technical presentation gave an introduction to BS8102
(Code of Practice for the protection of structures against
water from the ground) outlining the critical design
considerations that influence the form of construction
and material selection.
This included guidance on the most commonly used waterproofing
materials, including reference to strengths and weaknesses
of the systems, together with application methods and
advice on surface preparation.
