Waterproofing Systems

Podium Deck Waterproofing

Trafficked and landscaped deck systems detailed for movement, drainage and heavy loading.

The engineering brief

What podium deck waterproofing involves

Podium decks carry landscaping, vehicles and services above occupied space, so a single failure is disruptive and expensive to trace once the build-up is in place.

We waterproof podiums with root-resistant, high-elongation systems, correct falls to outlets, and protect the membrane with drainage boards and screeds before any landscaping is installed.
