BS 8102:2009 - Code of practice for protection of below ground structures against water from the ground

Size: 0.7 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Publisher: BSI | Year: 2009 | Pages: 46 | ISBN: 9780580593994, 0580593991

BS 8102 gives recommendations and provides guidance on methods of dealing with and preventing the entry of water from surrounding ground into a structure below ground level.

It covers the use of:
a) Waterproofing barrier materials applied to the structure
b) Structurally integral watertight construction
c) Drained cavity construction.

It also covers the evaluation of groundwater conditions, risk assessment and options for drainage outside the structure. It applies to structures which extend below ground level and those on sloping sites.

BS 8102 does not give recommendations on the use of embedded heating in structures, floors and walls or for the special requirements in connection with the design and construction of cold stores.

BS 8102:2009 replaces BS 8102:1990, which is now withdrawn. This is a full revision of the standard, and includes the following changes:

a) A number of recent developments are addressed, which are important when specifying, designing and constructing below ground structures, including:

1) More deep construction in congested urban areas
2) An increase in the provision of residential basements
3) Development and use of new materials for waterproofing

b) A more detailed assessment is provided of the risks in below ground construction and how these might best be addressed.
