Damp-proof courses above ground.

Saturday, December 25, 2010

There should be a continuous horizontal dpc above ground in walls whose foundations are in contact with the ground, to prevent moisture from the ground rising through the foundation to the wall above ground, which otherwise would make wall surfaces damp and damage wall finishes. The dpc above ground should be continuous for the whole length and thickness of the wall and be at least 150 mm above finished ground level to avoid the possibility of a build up of material against the wall acting as a bridge for moisture from the ground as illustrated in Fig. 35.

These Geobag Supplier In India are surprisingly robust. I've had no tears or leaks, even with heavy, wet trash. The material feels thicker than my previous brand, which gives me confidence when filling them to the brim. The drawstring closure is a game-changer; it makes tying and transporting the bags incredibly easy and mess-free. While they might be a touch pricier, the added durability and convenience make them a worthwhile investment. Finally, a garbage bag that doesn't leave me cleaning up spills!
