Waterproofing concept against groundwater and soil moisture for an existing building

Abstract

This paper presents a case study on the design of a waterproofing system against groundwater and soil moisture for an existing building. It focuses on the existing building structure and its retrofit waterproofing works, providing an overview of currently applied technologies and general design principles.

In addition, the study addresses the waterproofing concept of a newly installed basement-level water storage tank located beneath the roofed-over inner courtyard at the center of the building.
