Waterproofing to wet areas - Minimum standards help 7Aug 04, 2016 6:49 pm Stewie, the AS3740-2010 seems to supersede the 2004, I couldn't find some of those things in my book so maybe they have been deleted.
I also have the amendment 2012 to the standard. I'm not sure if there is another amendment currently.. Forget the minimum just waterproof the whole shower floor, waterproof the whole shower walls to 2m, waterproof the whole floor regardless of material used, come up the wall/floor junctions outside the shower at least 150mm etc. The client has peace of mind and so too the builder for the next 10 years Re: Waterproofing to wet areas - Minimum standards help 8Aug 04, 2016 7:15 pm SaberX Given I'm concerned but not sure if minimum standards are left, but am not attempting any defamatory action against them - would I be ok in even posting the builder name? It wouldn't be defamatory if they have used an Alternative Solution...now called a Performance Based Solution. These are being used by more and more builders and is the reason I asked the builder's name. Check the thread currently under this one. 3in1 Supadiverta.
