Systematic drying of walls and waterproofing of buildings
In the planning and implementation of waterproofing for buildings and projects to dry out walls, two basic approaches can be distinguished:
- Waterproofing on the positive side
- Waterproofing on the negative side
In the first case, the water presses the waterproofing against the building; in the second case, the waterproofing layer is pressed away from the building. For waterproofing on the positive side, we recommend the application of bituminous products such as PCI Pecimor® 2K to the outside wall. As an alternative, cementitious waterproofing systems such as our PCI Barraseal® series may be used for external waterproofing. If you wish to treat the negative side, cementitious systems are the solution of choice. When selecting products, please check whether they are suitable for protection against standing or pressing water or only against moisture in the soil.
