Abstract

This paper takes as its starting points the current national standards and regulations as well as provisions of BS 8102:2009 (Code of practice for protection of below ground structures against water from the ground) and psychometric chart (the humid air chart). Given the above data, it is desired to present the possibility in which a technological solution used to waterproofing rehabilitation of building infrastructure can be optimized. The method has been successfully implemented at churches and castles, in order to eliminate the rising damp and to drain the affected brick walls. In this regard we have developed a software application which allows better and faster evaluation of the optimal technological solution as well as quick comparative assessment of the intervention costs.
