  2. Basement waterproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basement_waterproofing

    Waterproofing an existing basement begins with excavating to the bottom sides of the footings. Once excavated, the walls are then power washed and allowed to dry. The dry walls are sealed with a waterproofing membrane, [3] and new drainage tiles (weeping tiles) are placed at the side of the footing.

  3. Glaze defects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaze_defects

    Crazing is a spider web pattern of cracks penetrating the glaze. It is caused by tensile stresses greater than the glaze is able to withstand. [1] [2] Common reasons for such stresses are: a mismatch between the thermal expansions of glaze and body; from moisture expansion of the body; and in the case of glazed tiles fixed to a wall, movement of the wall or of the bonding material used to fix ...

  4. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

    Movement joints are designed to absorb the movement of the subfloor and the tiles themselves due to thermal expansion and contraction, moisture variations, and structural shifts. These joints are essentially gaps, typically filled with a flexible material like silicone or rubber, that separate tiles and allow for movement without causing the ...

  5. Damp proofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damp_proofing

    Barriers may be a coating or membrane applied to the exterior of the concrete. The coating may be asphalt, asphalt emulsion, a thinned asphalt called cutback asphalt, or an elastomer. [9] Membranes are rubberized asphalt or EPDM rubber. Rubberized products perform better because concrete sometimes develops cracks and the barrier does not crack ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseboard

    MDF (medium-density fiberboard) is a common material used for baseboard trim and molding. It is an engineered wood product manufactured from refined wood fibers combined with wax and resin binders. MDF is denser and more rigid than standard particle board. Compared to solid wood trim, MDF baseboard has the advantage of being consistent in ...

    A diagram of a traditional French drain. A French drain [1] (also known by other names including trench drain, blind drain, [1] rubble drain, [1] and rock drain [1]) is a trench filled with gravel or rock, or both, with or without a perforated pipe that redirects surface water and groundwater away from an area.

  9. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

    All common molding processes may be used, including injection molding, compression molding, and extrusion. The highest quality PMMA sheets are produced by cell casting, but in this case, the polymerization and molding steps occur concurrently. The strength of the material is higher than molding grades owing to its extremely high molecular mass.
