Do you think it is possible to make a floor that is 7472
impervious to damp on that specification ?
Yes, I think so. I had an experience the other day at
Kowloon in which we had laid with the same propertions,
four inches thick. A spring had formed at the bottom
through the heavy rains in September, and the concrete
was priced off by the water underneath without comigg
though the substance of the concrete. It was shifted
out of its position.
concrete was not actually broken ?
17473
It was oracked across the middle. It was on a slope.
