Kevin Dodds, Managing Director at Delta Membrane Systems Limited, shares key tips for designing effective waterproofing solutions.

Structural waterproofing is vital for protecting buildings; it prevents water ingress that could otherwise cause major damage over time.

Choosing products that meet Approved Document B means selecting materials according to European fire standards (BS EN 13501-1). Approved Documents, published by the government, guide building regulation compliance across areas like plumbing, electrics, extensions, and ventilation.

The Delta HLA Plus addresses the construction industry’s need for risk mitigation and accountability. 

Achieving Net Zero is a top priority in the built environment. The industry advocates for a holistic carbon approach, considering emissions from operational energy use and embodied carbon in materials and construction processes.  Organisations worldwide are striving to reduce their environmental impact and promote sustainability.

Delta prioritises ethical conduct and integrity in all operations.  We are dedicated to environmental stewardship and sustainable practices.  The Delta HLA Plus is built for longevity, meeting current needs while considering future generations.

Tensile and compressive loads are key in mechanics and engineering. Tensile load stretches materials, causing elongation. Compressive load compresses materials, causing them to shorten. Our latest blog explores tensile and compressive strengths and how these properties determine how structural waterproofing materials react to forces.
