BLINDSIDE WATERPROOFING (Virtual AIA)

BLINDSIDE WATERPROOFING: HOW TO SELECT AND SPECIFY PRE-APPLIED WATERPROOFING SYSTEMS
Thursday, September 28th – 12 PM CST
Host: Taylor Carter

Blindside waterproofing is an approach to provide positive-side, below-grade waterproofing on construction sites where traditional waterproofing installations are not possible. Blindside waterproofing is a solution for zero lot lines and sites with limited access. In a number of situations, blindside waterproofing is being used where the foundation is below the water table or under a great deal of hydrostatic pressure. This course will explain why waterproofing a structure is essential to long-term durability, and the role that blindside waterproofing systems provide in these situations. In addition, it will discuss options for pre-applied waterproofing materials and standard installation techniques to ensure the effective, long-term protection of a structure in blindside waterproofing applications. Best practices in blindside application will also be discussed, along with case studies highlighting blindside applications on commercial projects. This program is registered with the AIA/CES for continuing professional education and is HSW-approved. The course earns one learning unit (LU).
