Study of waterproofing failures and proper installation method / Mohd Razif Romli

Waterproofing has become one of the important components in a building. It can be heard on news if there is a newly building, one of the problem arise must be related to toilet leakage. This is not due to lack of effective waterproofing systems and the products available in the market. To prevent da...
