How is DPC laid?
The damp-proof course should be laid at plinth level i.e. at floor level in all building except temporary structures. ... On the outer walls the DPC is laid at the ground level, to save wall from dampness of floor, vertical DPC is laid on the outer walls on internal surface from ground to plinth level.

Pull the DPC an inch off the bricks from either the inside or the outside. While that to some extent compromises the full effect of the DPC at least the will be a brick and cement connection between the upper part of the house and the lower.

I agree I've Bern told this and I've done so

I understand why the DPC is there but surely it is the week point of the wall from any horizontal forces because the cement doesn't stick to it like it does to the bricks?

A damp-proof course (DPC)is a barrier through the structure designed to prevent moisture rising by capillary action such as through a phenomenon known as rising damp. Rising damp is the effect of water rising from the ground into property. The damp proof course may be horizontal or vertical.

Yes it is a weak point, but the wall is relying on its own weight to hold in place, we tend not to use dpc on front fences or retaining walls

Does dpm go on top of inner wall.dpc?

@howto9577 Год назад

it is normal that the DPM overlaps with the DPC (Damp Proof Course). The DPC is normally laid within the bed joint of the brickwork or blockwork, primarily to stop ground damp from rising

@@neilblenkinsop2613 I did hear the instructor say to keep the cavity clean . The lad is clearly at the very beginning of his training and needs his confidence building before honing and refining his skills and technique , something you could try with your grammar.

I find alot of brickies are like this. Always criticising other brickies work. If there isn't a problem, then they'll find one. No comaraderie. Their like bitchy little gay men. Pathetic.
