With the introduction
of the latest British Standard 8102:(1990) "protection of structures against water from the ground",
the use of cavity membranes has been generally accepted in the
UK. DELTA Systems are a complete range of products which are used
together to solve many of today's problems in both new and old
construction. DELTA Systems can easily deal with aggressive ground
water conditions, where basements are liable to flooding, or indeed
where simple dampness, contamination or salting problems are prevalent.
Other more diverse applications include Turf covered roofs, barn
conversions, tunnel linings or even as a barrier against radon
gas.
The
main components of the system are the membranes themselves. These
are manufactured from virgin high density polyethylene which
is thermally alkaline stabalised. The stud heights vary between
3mm for DELTA-FM, 8 mm for DELTA MS 500 & DELTA PT to 20 mm for DELTA MS 20. The cavity created by the membrane contains between 5 and 10 Litres of space respectively. This is known as either the "Air gap" or the "Drained Cavity",
in wet situations.
