ABOUT THE WEBINAR
The housing crisis in Canada is heightening the need for efficient housing solutions, including multihousing buildings that help densify cities and curb urban sprawl. If a solid base is essential for these structures, foundation waterproofing is critical to ensure their durability and avoid costly repairs in the long term. However, in urban areas, tight spaces can sometimes make waterproofing work more difficult.
This webinar covers the basic principles of foundation waterproofing for multihousing buildings and examines the specific challenges of blindside waterproofing. Our experts will present the details you need to know, and the mistakes to avoid on the worksite to guarantee the sturdiness and durability of foundations.
