Features: This book adopts a question-and-answer format, closely integrating with engineering practice. Using concise and plain language, supplemented by appropriate construction diagrams, it explains the waterproofing materials, design, and construction methods of modern and ancient buildings in two parts, 11 chapters. As a highly responsible building waterproofing expert, the author of this book has not only led or participated in the formulation of multiple current waterproofing standards in China but has also dedicated many years to the research of waterproofing in ancient buildings, achieving outstanding results. This is partly due to the author's solid foundation accumulated over more than 30 years of architectural design experience and their interest in ancient architecture, but more importantly, it is attributed to the author's tireless diligence and historical sense of responsibility for building waterproofing in China. This book is suitable for technical personnel engaged in building waterproofing design and construction, and it also serves as a valuable reference for other building technical personnel and students and teachers of higher vocational and technical colleges in civil engineering.
