Flooring
Strictly Dry Room
Substantial flooding to a subterranean hall with dance floor resulted
in severe damage to the walls and floor, which has been rectified by
specialist contractor Oak Damp Proofing using materials from Delta
Membrane Systems.
Water had seeped through the junction of the wall and the floor, at the
Bourne Hall Community Centre in Ewell, Surrey - which is used for a
number of community activities including dancing.
Some 240m2 of MS20 was used for the floor. This is a compressionresistant, durable dimpled sheet made from special high density
polyethylene, and is suitable for use as damp proofing on walls and floors.
The heavy gauge option has 20mm deep studs, and can be used in
situations where extra drainage capacity is required, or a larger flow rate
is needed.
On the walls, Delta MS500 has been employed. Benefits offered with the
Delta MS500 cavity drainage membrane include resistance to chemicals
and root penetration, and neutrality with drinking water.
Ideally suited for use in refurbishment or creation of basements, this
product is part of the Delta System 500 package for basement work.
Two Delta Dual Pumps have also been installed to remove the water from
the building.
To ensure moisture is taken from the area, some 90m of Delta Drainage
Channel has been installed. This is a water collection conduit which is
bedded into a preformed channel at the floor/wall angle.
By using the Delta range of products, Oak Damp Proofing has ensured
that the many users of the Bourne Hill Community Centre have been able
to return to their activities with little inconvenience.
