    It's sad how many times Delta had to answer your questions here. This is 100% a wall damp and waterproofing system it is not a drainage system. They likely sell one though. Both are required by code in the OBC 9.13 (Ontario, Canada) the majority of the time. The worry of nails... my god, free drainage and the nails don't penetrate into the house - ffs. Most of you should hire a competent builder and stop doing DIY on the most expensive thing you own.

      Volcanised Concrete was the first concrete formed poured and floated from below water, to the surface. Argentinean concrete psi was the first from a higher ph of coral calcium lime, the strongest. The Pyramid stones were cut with water pressure, as the Sons of God were giants in those days never polluted the altar with man's tools. The polished look of a pristine finish used the same technology as making windows with heat and pressure form shape to shape form.

    This product is difficult and risky to install on foundations older than 10 years. Concrete becomes very hard and brittle over time. Only decent way to install on old foundation is to drill pilot holes with an sds drill. But you will need an adaptor for the sds drill to fit small enough bits that will allow a snug fit with the delta nails and fasteners. Currently installing now. Bit of a pain for older foundations. Update: I dont recommend this product for anyone unless you can install with screws and hammer drill pilot holes. Nails in concrete is down right idiotic. This method has caused thousands in damage to my foundation.

My question is I have a 4 foot frost wall on the back and a part of the sides, that will be back filled all the way up on the outside and inside. Does this have to be installed on the outside of that wall or just the 2 side walls and the front that will be back filled outside and be basement inside

    • @coselladorken
      @coselladorken 2 роки тому

      In general, building code requires application to the exterior around all occupied space. As an example, this means if you had an attached garage, the wall shared with the interior basement space would require treatment on the exterior side. If your short walls will have soil against them on the outside and there is basement to the inside, all below grade exterior areas would require DELTA®-MS to be applied. Please check your local building code for specific requirements www.dorken.com/media/docs/products/Installation-Guides/Installation-Instructions_DELTA-MS.pdf

    In the case where the water table frequently rises into the level where footers will be, it seems to me that stone and schedule 40 drainage might be ineffective (home withe elevated slab or slab-on-grade). What would you suggest in this case? I was wondering about contiguous epdm laid over the excavation site (giant pond liner) then footers poured, then stem walls and the outside edge of the epdm would be affixed to the outside perimeter of the stem wall. Are foundation contractors doing this anywhere? Why or why not?

    • @coselladorken
      @coselladorken 2 роки тому

      For the typical residential home, full underslab waterproofing is not necessary, though one should always design for site conditions. Most builders do not lay down a layer of EPDM because standard site drainage is adequate for most locations.. However, building code does require footings be placed on undisturbed soil, so you would not likely be allowed to run it under the footings. If the groundwater is rising above the footing, waterproofing on the wall should be done to a height of one foot higher than the anticipated water level. If you have a slab on grade floor and the water rises above it, you have a flood and EPDM is unlikely to help.

So paint stem walls with waterproofing and maybe another layer of delta footing barrier on top of the stem wall too (not just top of the footer)? Engineer also suggested a reinforced vapor barrier over crushed stone fill, before pouring slab. Thoughts?

    • @coselladorken
      @coselladorken 2 роки тому

      @@grizzlya1257 Firstly, remember that DELTA®-FOOTING BARRIER is a capillary break, meant to prevent by physical separation the passage of water through the footing into the foundation wall due to capillary action. It is not waterproofing and would not be considered water-tight. Capillary breaks between the foundation/stem wall and the primary structure are also important, as wood ought not sit directly on concrete. A common method is sill plate gasket installed after the concrete is cured. DELTA®-FOOTING BARRIER could be used but should always be applied when the concrete is wet. We agree with your engineer on the wisdom of a vapor barrier underneath your basement slab. See DELTA®-MS UNDERSLAD www.dorken.com/en/our-products/products/residential/delta-ms-underslab.php An underslab vapor barrier is a good idea no matter what the ground water level. It will add to the comfort of the building. DELTA®-MS or DELTA®-DRAIN make a good drainage/protection layer for your waterproofing as well.

      We recommend the placement of rebar to connect the footing and the foundation wall. When installing DELTA®-FOOTING BARRIER as a capillary break on the footing, simply either cut an “X” in the membrane and place the rebar through and into the wet concrete. Or one may install the DELTA®-FOOTING BARRIER after the rebar has been placed in the wet concrete and just cut a slit in the membrane to go around it. Any moisture that might move through either cut will be miniscule.

    I assume this is a good reason NOT to apply spray foam (even closed cell?) directly to the back of corrugated sheet metal when it's used as an outer layer on a structure (say, for the new "barndominium" building fad)? Would you recommend house wrap beneath the corrugated metal and applying the spray foam insulation to the house wrap from the inside of the house? My builder is saying that applying it directly to the metal adds structure and won't give us sweating issues but I've read otherwise. As well, I've heard say that some metal suppliers won't uphold their warranties if spray foam is applied directly do it...presumably due to corrosion which I assume is created with no air layer between the warm inside of the house and the cool outside.

    • @coselladorken
      @coselladorken 2 роки тому

      Here Joe is discussing rainscreens with reservoir (or absorptive) cladding. Corrugated metal would not be a reservoir cladding, so we haven’t any worries about inward vapor drive given that metal can be both a vapor barrier and an air barrier (if made continuous). We recommend you consult with your cladding manufacturer about the advisability of spraying against it the specific type of foam you are considering using.
