Ever-evolving waterproofing technology presents challenges and risks for architects and engineers who do not specialize in the field. The revised edition of the "Waterproofing Manual" provides education and product information to enable designers to take a solid fundamental approach to these modern challenges. Building designers specify waterproofing systems and materials that are often based on limited and subjective manufacturer literature or based on past experience with systems that operate under certain conditions but will not operate in others. Water seepage usually leads to litigation. This book gives you the tools to prevent that.
