| Résumé : |
Rising dampness is caused by capillary suction of water through fine voids that occur in ail masonry materials. Capillaries draw water from the soifs beneath a building against the force of gravity leading to damp zones at the base of walls.
The study revealed that failure to use damp-proof membrane or course, presence of groundwater, porosity of masonry, and concrete element sand flooding were the main causes of rising dampness. Undersetting and saw slotting, making good plumbing leakages, using approved waterproof chemical injection, and application of admixtures were the main measures recommended to aven rising dampness. |
