Habitat for Humanity

Project History

The Executive Director of the Capital District Habitat for Humanity asked New York State Concrete Masonry Association to donate materials for a foundation. The Project Engineer responsible for the site plan and structural review proposed a thirteen-course 8-inch CMU basement wall. The proposed wall would be backfilled to almost a full 8-foot height and insulated with direct
applied, foil faced insulation with a R-value of almost 15. Conproco offered to supply materials and labor to place the below-grade waterproofing system. FC Membrane is a single component flexible cement waterproofing membrane that can be spray, trowel or brush applied.
