  3. Waterproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterproofing

    One of the leading causes of waterproof deck system failures is the movement of underlying substrates (plywood) that cause too much stress on the membranes resulting in a failure of the system. While beyond the scope of this reference document, waterproofing of decks and balconies is a complex of many complimentary elements.

  7. Bituminous geomembrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bituminous_geomembrane

    This novel bituminous geomembrane was made by spraying hot bitumen in-situ onto a polyester geotextile. [6] Soon after these early installations, factory manufactured BGMs were developed with factory impregnation of bitumen into the geotextile allowing a high standard of quality control. Spray applied BGMs went entirely out of favor by 1988. [7]
