The illustration above shows exactly what the WaterProofing Manual (WPM) is about.
Normally information and documents can be widely spread on many hands and be totally out of sequence.

A WPM will bring order in the waterproofing process documents and will act as a guide instead of "just being there".

• the engineer
• the architect
• the contractor
• the applicator
• the owner
• the product sales
• the application crew

- they are all involved in the same project!
- but do they have access to the same documentation, the same solutions, the same "Hot-spots" etc., etc. - in the same updated version?

With a Waterproofing Manual powered by ScandiProof.com - they do!

If you are not clear about the background and the direction of your waterproofing project - you and all other participants in the project will be prone to choosing the "Path of least resistance" - and thus moving closer to expensive errors.

Bringing the waterproofing topic in early in the structural design phase will increase the chance of following rule no. 1 of good waterproofing: letting the structure do most of the waterproofing on its own!

Waterproofing solutions can almost always be divided into general solutions and details - the latter we call CCPs (Critical Control Points)
CCP waterproofing should always be very detailed, which is why we use a lot of video and interactive 3D models.

Historically, waterproofing applications when initiated reach a low point of focus. At the same time, the complexity reaches a climax - a really bad combination.
A waterproofing Manual is designed to guide the waterproofing project in the opposite direction.

In every waterproofing project, there is some learning that can benefit future projects. Not doing so creates the situation we have had for decades - repeating the same mistakes over and over.

Later, if something has gone wrong despite all efforts, it will be worth a lot, to have all information kept in one place.
