TeraPROOF Pre-Applied Membranes and Post-Applied Membranes are designed for below-grade commercial applications
November 5, 2025
Siplast announced the introduction of TeraPROOF™, a full portfolio of high-performance materials for below-grade applications, engineered to create a robust waterproofing solution for commercial buildings.
Effective insulation strategies that enhance energy efficiency, prevent moisture intrusion, and contribute to a durable and sustainable structure are crucial in this process.
Bringing exceptional performance to the growing continuous insulation market, Atlas recently introduced EnergyShield XR Continuous Insulation, for both residential and commercial projects, and is the only polyiso continuous insulation board designed for both above- and below-grade applications.
We sat down with PIMA president Justin Koscher to discuss the role of polyiso insulation in increasing energy efficiency, and the role polyiso plays when used in below-grade for thermal resistance.
Rmax, a division of the Sika Corporation that specializes in developing and producing high-quality insulation solutions, has launched Rmax Below Grade.
The team's mission was to install a state-of-the-art waterproofing system for the hotel's below-grade parking garage. Although the project came with its fair share of hurdles, including unpredictable weather conditions, the team rose to the occasion.
Construction firms today have many waterproof membranes to choose from, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Project managers must go over the following seven considerations to make the right choice.
Tarco now makes a superior membrane for below grade waterproofing applications. Building on its expertise in mod-bit chemistry and its experience with product development as well as its manufacturing know-how, Tarco has created a below-grade waterproofing membrane like no other.
This course will review best practices for detailing critical transitions such as roof-to-wall and wall to below-grade connections, where discontinuities often lead to failures. Special attention will be given to vapor permeable air barrier systems and their ability to maintain airtightness while supporting drying potential within the assemblies.
