Introduction

Waterproofing failures rarely result from product choice alone. Water follows cracks, joints, penetrations, interfaces and drainage weaknesses, while concrete durability is governed by permeability, exposure, cover, cracking, workmanship and maintenance.

This five-day course integrates concrete durability design with waterproofing systems and site execution. Participants assess exposure and moisture paths, select compatible protection, detail discontinuities, define substrate and installation controls, test completed work and diagnose leakage. Whole-system performance and repairability guide every decision.

Objectives

Assess exposure and moisture-transport mechanisms.
Specify durable concrete performance.
Control cracking, joints and penetrations.
Select compatible waterproofing systems.
Design drainage and interface details.
Establish substrate and installation controls.
Plan inspection and performance testing.
Diagnose failures and design repairs.
