Dampproofing materials
The table lists a number of dampproofing materials
considered by ACI Committee 515 to be suitable for the
exposures indicated above or below grade. All or most
water-based portland cement paints (the first item in
the table) are now made with some material such as a
latex or spra y- d ried latex which aids in application,
eliminates the need for repeated moist curing efforts in
the first day or so, and contributes to the water repellency of the paint. Some portland cement-based dampproofing materials also contain ingredients that react
with free lime and deposit crystalline material in the
pores of the concrete to plug them or contribute water
repellency.
The table does not show all of the dampproofing ma-

user should carefully follow the recommendations of the
manufacturer.
The condition of the surface and the ambient conditions are of considerable importance. The surface must
