  2. Epoxy moisture control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy_moisture_control_system

    Epoxy moisture control systems can be applied over concrete with relative humidity levels up to 100%, and there are systems available on the market today that can be applied over concrete that is physically damp. In some cases, with the use of an epoxy moisture control system, floor coverings can be installed just 7 days after the slab is poured.

  3. Damp proofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damp_proofing

    A common example is polyethylene sheeting laid under a concrete slab to prevent the concrete from gaining moisture through capillary action. [5] A DPM may be used for the DPC. Integral damp proofing in concrete involves adding materials to the concrete mix to make the concrete itself impermeable. [4]

  4. Basement waterproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basement_waterproofing

    In poured concrete foundations, cracks and pipe penetrations are the most common entry points for seepage. These openings can be sealed from the interior. Epoxies , which are strong adhesives, or urethanes can be pressure injected into the openings, thus penetrating the foundation through to the exterior and cutting off the path of the seepage.

  5. Vapor barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_barrier

    The function of a vapor barrier is to retard the migration of water vapor. A vapor barrier is not typically intended to retard the migration of air. This is the function of air barriers. [8] Air is mixed with water vapor. When air moves from location to location due to an air pressure difference, the vapor moves with it.

  6. Waterproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterproofing

    Walls also have vapor barriers or air barriers. Damp proofing is another aspect of waterproofing. Masonry walls are built with a damp-proof course to prevent rising damp , and the concrete in foundations needs to be damp-proofed or waterproofed with a liquid coating, basement waterproofing membrane (even under the concrete slab floor where ...

  7. Category:Moisture protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Moisture_protection

    Moisture protection is a barrier, made from plastics, resins and bituminous products, to prevent the travel of water; typically used on a roof, beneath a cement slab or sidewalk, along a foundation wall, or lining a bathroom floor.

  8. Cement board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cement_board

    It absorbs moisture as well, but it has excellent drying properties. In areas continually exposed to water spray (i.e., showers) a waterproofing material is usually recommended behind the boards (i.e., plastic barrier) or as a trowel -applied product to the face of the boards behind the finish system (i.e., liquid membrane).

  9. Housewrap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Housewrap

    Housewrap functions as a weather-resistant barrier, preventing rain or other forms of moisture from getting into the wall assembly while allowing water vapor to pass to the exterior. If moisture from either direction is allowed to build up within stud or cavity walls, mold and rot can set in and fiberglass or cellulose insulation will lose its ...
