#startathon2.0 - Humanitarian Aid Re-Imagined
These slides were presented at the #startathon2.0 pre-workshop on 4 October covering the challenge theme of "Humanitarian Aid Re-Imagined".
Nature-based solutions
On 22 May, 2020, the International Day of Biological Diversity, the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) hosted an online event to discuss how we can translate the global ambition around nature-based solutions for climate change into local action.
This is a presentation given by Chip Cunliffe, sustainable development director at AXA XL.

Climate Change and Competitiveness
The document discusses climate change adaptation and competitiveness in the Dominican Republic. It notes that investing in climate adaptation is important for emerging economies to remain competitive. Private sector involvement is key to implementing climate commitments under the Paris Agreement. The Dominican Republic has taken steps to adapt key sectors like energy and agriculture to climate impacts. International collaboration in areas like renewable energy, agriculture, and technology can help countries adapt.
Paola Albrito
The document discusses disaster risk reduction from an international perspective. It summarizes that annual global economic losses from disasters have exceeded $100 billion in recent years due to increased exposure. Europe experiences an average of $13.4 billion in disaster losses annually, making it the third most affected region. Most losses are from weather events like flooding. The Hyogo Framework was adopted in 2005 and outlines five priorities to build disaster resilience, including governance, risk assessment, education, reducing underlying risks, and preparedness. Implementation of the Framework in Europe shows that prevention and risk reduction provide significant economic benefits but underlying risks remain difficult to address. The post-2015 Framework will focus on risk avoidance, reduction, and resilience.
Climate Summit Action Areas Cities
Cities are responsible for 70% of global greenhouse gas emissions and are vulnerable to climate impacts like hurricanes and sea level rise. Action is needed to set emissions reduction goals, strategies, and financing for cities to cut emissions and increase resilience. Partners are working with cities to collect data, pass climate legislation, develop programs in key sectors, and provide financing options. Initiatives like the Mayors Compact and City Climate Finance Leadership Alliance aim to aggregate city targets, commit to reporting, and build financing facilities to support low-carbon, resilient projects in developing country cities.

AON Presentation Munich Re
The document discusses the economic consequences of natural catastrophes and the role of the (re)insurance industry. It notes that natural disasters can cause both direct losses through damage and deaths as well as indirect losses through impacts on GDP and economic activity. Insurers help limit losses by providing risk mitigation incentives and funding reconstruction to allow rapid resumption of production. Emerging economies are at high risk due to factors like urbanization and climate change is expected to intensify hurricanes. The 2017 hurricane season caused unprecedented insured losses that will significantly impact reinsurance capital availability. The (re)insurance industry plays an important role through risk identification and transfer, as well as providing funding for reconstruction.

1) A flood insurance model was developed for Georgia based on detailed flood hazard and risk modelling within an integrated flood risk management framework.
2) The model included flood mapping, calculating risk scores and potential damage/losses, and developing an index-based insurance scheme with risk-based premiums and payout principles.
3) While the insurance scheme was not piloted during the initial project due to various challenges, efforts are ongoing to address flooding and other natural hazards through policy interventions like risk financing and early warning systems.
Boosing Resilience Through Innovative Risk Governance - OECD Report

This document discusses funding gaps and principles for successful financing of nature-based solutions (NBS) such as land restoration projects in Africa. It notes that while the Bonn Challenge and New York declaration on Forests call for $350 billion and $830 billion respectively for restoration, actual funding leaves large gaps. It advocates for bridging these gaps through public-private partnerships and prioritizing long-term sustainability over short-term profits. Six principles are outlined for financing NBS, including ensuring social and environmental safeguards, monitoring impacts, and directing funds toward low-carbon development in developing countries. The Regreening Africa program addresses livelihoods, biodiversity and climate change through land restoration projects across eight African nations.Greg McGill: The effects of taxation on land use town planning

Climate Summit Action Areas Resilience
Climate change is increasing natural disasters and exacerbating vulnerability around the world. Governments, the private sector, scientists, and civil society are working to build resilience through partnerships focused on climate information, integrating climate risks into finance, risk financing, and making cities resilient. The document outlines specific initiatives to give farmers climate data, integrate disaster risk into financial systems, expand risk funds, and support resilient cities through tools and services. Leaders are invited to commit to bold climate action at the UN Climate Summit on September 23rd.
2018 DRR Financing 2.1 Andy Palmer
This document summarizes the challenges faced by governments in financing disaster risks and the role of risk transfer solutions. It notes that the costs of natural disasters are growing and most losses are uninsured, burdening public sector budgets. A range of pre-event financing options are discussed to help governments plan for disaster impacts on infrastructure, emergency response costs, revenue losses, and supporting uninsured populations. Risk transfer solutions like insurance and catastrophe bonds can help spread sovereign disaster risks across global capital markets.

2018 DRR Financing 5.6 Maxim Bouev
David Simmons notes that catastrophe insurance has traditionally focused on property loss but its scope is wider, such as disaster response. Existing catastrophe risk models do not account for second- and higher-order effects of critical infrastructure failures. Network analysis can help model how failures may diffuse through interconnected systems. Even with perfect models, risks may remain if key infrastructure components lie outside a country's borders.

- France uses a national reference method called multicriteria analysis (MCA) to assess costs and benefits of flood protection infrastructure investments. MCA is an extended cost-benefit analysis that includes both monetary and non-monetary indicators.
- MCA evaluates impacts of protective measures on population, economy, environment, and cultural heritage over a 50-year time horizon. It includes indicators on costs, monetary benefits like avoided damages, and non-monetary benefits like protected assets.
- Ongoing work is improving damage curves used in the analysis and extending the scope to include other hazards and socio-economic assessments of different flood prevention measures.

Conference and internet
1) Meetings, Incentives, Conferences/Conventions, and Exhibitions (MICE) tourism brings substantial economic benefits to local areas through visitor spending.
2) Virtual events can benefit both exhibitors and attendees by reducing costs, increasing accessibility, and allowing more robust networking compared to traditional in-person events.
3) Popular virtual meeting platforms include Google Hangouts, Skype, and virtual worlds like Second Life, which allow for virtual conferences, trade shows and more.
Economic Loss Accounting in Japan, Tomoyuki Okada MLIT
1) Japan has developed extensive databases and statistics on disaster damages to systematically evaluate economic losses from disasters.
2) Cost-benefit analysis of flood projects considers both direct monetary damages as well as indirect and non-monetary impacts that are difficult to value but assessed quantitatively.
3) A variety of indices are used to evaluate different types of impacts like human damages, disruption of infrastructure and social services, and economic effects both within and outside the affected region.

NOAA's Climate Prediction Center monitors and predicts the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) using various observational datasets and model outputs. They provide routine ENSO monitoring products and issue a monthly ENSO forecast consisting of probabilities for each ENSO category over the next 8 seasons. Both statistical and dynamical ENSO prediction models are considered to develop the forecast, with dynamical models showing slightly improved prediction skill in recent years. ENSO information is incorporated into CPC's seasonal temperature and precipitation outlooks for the United States and global seasonal climate outlooks produced in partnership with IRI.

The document discusses how climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction efforts must incorporate a gender perspective to be effective. It notes that roles and vulnerabilities related to climate change differ between women and men due to socially constructed gender differences. The presentation covers how gender affects climate change impacts, energy use, development, and disasters. It emphasizes that policies and programs and need to recognize women's knowledge and capacities, while also addressing their specific vulnerabilities and priorities. Gender mainstreaming strategies that involve both women and men are key to ensuring equality and effectiveness in climate adaptation and risk reduction.More Related Content

El Niño is a warm ocean current that develops along the coast of Ecuador and Peru and sometimes causes catastrophic weather. Climate change refers to long-term changes in average global temperatures. The presentation discusses how El Niño and climate change impact weather patterns globally and in the United States, focusing on temperature and precipitation trends in New Jersey. It emphasizes that both phenomena lead to increased volatility and variability in weather over time.
Enso cycle La Nina & El Nino
El Niño and La Niña are opposite phases of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle, which involves irregular changes in ocean temperatures and weather patterns in the equatorial Pacific. El Niño brings unusually warm water to Peru and Ecuador, weakening trade winds and affecting global weather. It occurs every 2-7 years and can cause flooding in some areas and drought in others. The thermocline and convective loops influence the cycle. Scientists monitor buoys and use models to predict when El Niño and La Niña events will occur.

Climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction strategies in rural communities of the Peruvian AndesBarind nw bangladesh drought gw and adaptation
This document summarizes groundwater conditions and drought trends in the Barind area of northwest Bangladesh. It finds that groundwater levels are declining significantly, with the rate of decline accelerating in recent decades. Drought occurrences are also increasing, especially during the rainy season, posing risks to agriculture. Projections indicate groundwater levels will continue deepening over the coming decades if adaptation measures are not taken. The area has high rainfall variability and is becoming semi-arid, facing water scarcity challenges due to overextraction of groundwater for irrigation.
Bangladesh Adaptation Climate Change
The passage describes the hardships faced by a Bangladeshi family due to increasingly extreme and unpredictable monsoon rains caused by climate change. It outlines how the family has their paddy crop washed away multiple times a season, loses possessions in floods, goes into debt buying replacement seeds and medicine, and becomes poorer and less resilient to future weather extremes. Climate change adaptation in Bangladesh relies heavily on foreign aid because extreme weather events frequently damage homes and crops, causing families to fall deeper into poverty each season.
Vulnerability and Adaptation of Disaster Victims, Dzul Khaimi bin Khailani, M...
The 2016 ProSPER.Net Leadership Programme was held in Labuan Island and Beaufort, Sabah, Malaysia. The Programme included workshops, plenary sessions, and fieldwork around the topics of local sustainable development challenges in the region. The main goals of the Programme were to identify local leadership opportunities for sustainable development and to link local and national sustainable development projects to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Paris Climate Treaty, and the Sendai Framework on Disaster Risk Reduction.
Mainstreaming Disaster Risk Reduction
The Comprehensive Disaster Management Programme (CDMP II) in Bangladesh aimed to mainstream disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation across government sectors to make development more resilient. It worked with 13 departments and 1 ministry, investing in partnerships and capacity building. Key achievements include training over 30,000 government professionals, establishing early warning systems, and incorporating disaster risk reduction into national education curricula. The program demonstrated the value of collaborative efforts to integrate resilience planning across sectors.
Natural Hazards and Disaster In Bangladesh
Bangladesh faces several natural hazards and disasters due to its geography and climate, including floods, cyclones, droughts, earthquakes, and landslides. Floods are the most common hazard, regularly affecting large areas of the low-lying country, while cyclones can cause widespread damage from heavy winds and storm surges. The author examines the definitions of hazards and disasters and outlines the key hazards facing Bangladesh.

6.5 - El Nino
ENSO refers to El Niño and La Niña phenomena in the Pacific Ocean that cause fluctuations in ocean temperatures from normal conditions. El Niño occurs when temperatures are higher than normal for sustained periods, while La Niña refers to lower than normal temperatures. These fluctuations originate off the west coast of South America and can impact global weather patterns, causing floods or droughts. The most recent El Niño occurred from September 2006 to early 2007.

A Changing Environment
▪ Intensifying disaster trends & more frequent events
▪ Resource scarcity and degradation (land, water, food, energy,
biodiversity)
▪ Increasing risk of “unchecked” urbanization coupled with
high exposure of population and assets in high risk areas.
▪ Increasing governance challenges, coordination, accountability,
legislations, institutional mechanisms, migration, conflict, all affecting
human security
▪ Equity, poverty, inclusion – all being fundamental development
challenges contributing to vulnerability
▪ Inter-dependency and complexity of risk drivers
▪ Climate change [extreme events, slow onset disasters (drought)]
Urban Cities and Disaster Management.docx
Rapid urbanization in Asia has increased populations in disaster-prone areas, raising vulnerability. Disaster mitigation measures like earthquake-resistant infrastructure have rarely been implemented in most Asian countries. The Asian Urban Disaster Mitigation Program demonstrated effective mitigation, and there is now significant demand for urban disaster risk management in the region and beyond.
The Urban Resilience Summit: Executive Summary (2014)
The document summarizes key discussions and takeaways from The Urban Resilience Summit held in Singapore in December 2014. Some of the main points discussed include:
- Building urban resilience is complex and requires cooperation across governments, businesses, and civil society. Asia faces particular risks from natural disasters and needs innovative public-private solutions.
- The 100 Resilient Cities initiative announced a new cohort of 35 cities, bringing the total to 67 cities working to develop resilience strategies and share best practices. Challenges to scaling solutions were discussed.
- A business survey found that while governments are primarily responsible for responding to shocks, private sector has a role to play through expertise, funding, and ensuring business continuity.

In an increasingly fast-changing and interconnected world, fostering resilience to withstand unexpected shocks is becoming more important. The effects of the financial crisis in 2008 still linger today. More recently, natural disasters of historic proportions in Asia and the re-emergence of geopolitical turmoil in Eastern Europe and the Middle East highlight the need for more resilient societies. Building more robust and resilient cities is key, and was the subject of The Economist Events’ Urban Resilience Summit held in Singapore on December 3rd.Canada: Municipal and Local Government - What's needs to be done
This document discusses issues facing municipal and local governments in Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. It outlines areas of financial shortfalls for some cities due to lost revenue. It also discusses the need for different strategies for rural versus urban areas. The broken arbitration system for public sector compensation is presented as an ongoing problem, as well as infrastructure funding challenges. The summary concludes that reform is needed across levels of government to address crisis management, economic development, public sector costs, and using innovation to solve infrastructure and housing issues.
Chapter 6 UNISDR Initiative
This document discusses initiatives to build resilient cities proposed by UNISDR. It outlines 10 initiatives including organizing for disaster resilience, identifying and understanding current and future risk scenarios, strengthening financial capacity, pursuing resilient urban development and design, safeguarding natural buffers, and strengthening institutional capacity. Specific examples of cities that have implemented these initiatives are provided, such as Albay in the Philippines establishing a disaster risk management office, and Pune, India investing in flood risk reduction measures. The document emphasizes the importance of these initiatives in building disaster resilient communities.
Financing the Sustainable Development Goals at local level
The World Bank is supporting local implementation of the 2030 Agenda and SDGs by promoting territorial development, building resilience to climate change and disasters, and maximizing finance for development at the local level. This includes establishing sound financial systems for cities, expanding access to capital for investment in infrastructure, and unlocking "hidden" public assets like underutilized land and commercial utilities. The goal is to help cities attract investment and grow in a sustainable manner to finance development needs.

Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation with Reference to Asia - Pacific- E...Global Risk Forum GRFDavos
This document summarizes a session from the 3rd International Disaster and Risk Conference on climate change mitigation and adaptation in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Pacific region. It discusses how rapid urbanization has increased cities' vulnerability to natural disasters. Prevention through capacity building, community participation, and integrating mitigation into development plans is key. The Hyogo and Kaulalampur declarations outline frameworks for disaster risk reduction through education, preparedness, protection of natural barriers, and public-private partnerships. Moving forward requires understanding disaster risk, sharing information, using technology to monitor hazards, and enacting laws and plans to build disaster-resilient communities and cities.2018 DRR Financing 1.3 Rosalind Cook
This document discusses disaster risk financing and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. It notes that disaster risk is increasing as seen by rising average annual losses relative to GDP in many countries from 1998-2017. The Sendai Framework aims to increase the number of countries and local governments that adopt disaster risk reduction strategies. These strategies can inform investment priorities and support projects to increase resilience. While progress is being made, more efforts are needed to accelerate financing for disaster risk reduction given the growing challenges from factors like climate change and urbanization. International frameworks like the Sendai Framework and SDGs provide guidance but implementation of coordinated strategies across systems is still developing.
How to reform local and municipal government
1. The document outlines several issues facing municipal and local governments, including taxation shortfalls due to the pandemic, rising operational expenses, broken arbitration systems, inadequate infrastructure funding, and housing affordability issues.
2. It calls for reforms to public sector compensation and more emphasis on economic development and innovation to address these challenges.
3. The author provides additional resources on topics like crisis management, public safety, and training opportunities to learn more about addressing government issues.
FMP Event - Climate risk and extreme weather insuring resilience - Greg Lowe
This document discusses how climate change is increasing risks from extreme weather and the role of insurance in building resilience. It argues that exposure is increasing due to both climate change and growing populations in at-risk areas. To build resilience, it advocates for policies around climate change, building codes, urban planning, and risk pooling. It also discusses how financial regulators are increasingly aware of climate risks and their impact on investments, and how insurance techniques can help disclose these risks. Finally, it provides examples of how private and public partnerships have formed risk pools to help regions recover more quickly from disasters.
Craig Duncan - Making Cities Resilient
The document summarizes the UNISDR's 2010-2015 global campaign called "Making Cities Resilient" which aims to achieve resilient and sustainable urban communities through actions by local governments. The campaign uses the Hyogo Framework's 10 essentials for disaster risk reduction and provides cities with a self-assessment tool and checklist. It also highlights the roles of mayors, governors, and partner organizations in supporting cities and shares resources like its handbook, now available in multiple languages. The next phase will focus on capacity building, city-to-city learning, and developing online tools.
Ocde.project overview apr 2016 final
Risk financing and risk transfer mechanisms can help address the increasing costs of climate-related disasters. However, there are significant challenges to their implementation in developing countries, including a lack of suitable mechanisms, high costs, and insufficient evidence and demand. Effective integration of adaptation, risk management, and risk financing approaches is needed but has not always been achieved in practice.

Building Urban Resilience in Critical Infrastructure
Assets, systems, and networks that are essential by governments for the functioning of a society and economy and deserving of special protection for national security.
The ability of a system, community or society exposed to hazards to resist, absorb, accommodate, adapt to, transform and recover from the effects of a hazard in a timely and efficient manner, including through the preservation and restoration of its essential basic structures and functions through risk management (UNDRR).
The FIVE ICLEI PATHWAYS reflect ICLEI’s approach to achieving a sustainable city as well as local contributions to implementing the goals laid out in international frameworks such as the Sustainable Development Goals. Any of our individual projects or initiatives can be oriented along one or more specific pathways. We also look at how the pathways connect to bring about change in an INTEGRATED way. For example, we consider how nature-based development contributes to resilience, or how to bring equity into low emission development.
Cities need to look at resilience from a systemic governance perspective
Integrated management starts with wide-scale mobilization of support from stakeholders and robust facts and data.
Challenges often lie in the acceleration and upscaling of activities. Individual best practice is easier to achieve, follow-up funding and investment is challenging
RISK ATLAS DOC12.pdfdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasd
The document provides information on a hazard risk and vulnerability atlas developed for Navi Mumbai, India. It was created as part of a project to enhance disaster risk reduction. The atlas contains flood, earthquake, fire, social vulnerability, and urban heat island exposure and risk maps. It integrates data from surveys, government departments, and risk models. The atlas is intended to help mainstream disaster risk reduction into development plans and aid emergency response through visual representation of risk.
Disaster Resilience Scorecard for Cities
Based on the 'Ten Essentials', this disaster resilience scorecard identifies risk and provides a basis for future investments.
IBM and AECOM have developed the Disaster Resilience Scorecard for the United Nations Making Cities Resilient Campaign, to be available free to any city to enable it to assess its resilience to natural hazards. While some hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis have always been present, others such as floods, hurricanes, tornados or heat events are expected to increase in frequency and severity due to the changing climate. With growing populations and urbanization putting more lives and economic activity in harm’s way, it is imperative that the world’s cities learn to understand and manage the risks that they face. The scorecard provides a mechanism to measure a city’s progress in this activity and allow the city to develop a prioritized list of actions to be taken to improve resilience. This document answers frequently asked questions.

Using Disaster Inventories Databases for Loss and Damage Assessment as a driv...Global Risk Forum GRFDavos
This document discusses how disaster loss databases can drive mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction (DRR) into climate change adaptation strategies. It argues that accounting for disaster losses provides evidence needed for policy decisions on investing in adaptation and DRR. Reliable disaster loss data allows for informed decisions on cost-effective risk management strategies. The document also notes challenges in systematically tracking disaster losses globally and calls for improved national disaster databases to provide a clearer picture of climate-related disaster costs and support the implementation of climate adaptation plans.IRJET- Sustainable Planning Strategies and its Principles
This document discusses strategies for sustainable planning. It focuses on both physical and social sustainability. Physical sustainability involves providing low-cost housing using renewable resources, while social sustainability aims to generate equal opportunities across social groups. An analytical framework is presented with 6 levels to develop sustainable strategies. The levels include mapping the system, creating a vision and goals, developing strategic guidelines, defining actions, establishing tools for implementation, and making readjustments based on monitoring. The framework allows for a comprehensive approach to sustainable planning and policymaking.

The typical Australian tropical cyclone season averages around 11 tropical cyclones, with four crossing the coast each season. The Australian government has undertaken several initiatives to improve disaster resilience, including publishing statewide risk assessments, developing national emergency risk assessment guidelines, and establishing frameworks for land use planning, warnings, and emergency response volunteers. Building a culture of prevention is challenging as its costs are incurred now while benefits are intangible, in the form of disasters prevented in the future.

Findlay Evans Waterproofing with AIW - Article August 2017
Findlay Evans Waterproofing with AIW - Article August 2017MELBOURNE Commercial Waterproofers - Findlay-Evans Waterproofing
Waterproofing Changes in Victoria
The Building Act 1993 remains, but the Building Regulation 2006 will be replaced by the Building Regulations 2017, expected to be legislated around September. Key changes affecting the waterproofing industry include Part 13, which mandates inspection prior to covering a waterproofing membrane in any wet area.
The regulations remain consistent in other areas affecting waterproofing, such as the adoption of the NCC and relevant Australian Standards, methods of assessment of compliance, material testing, and compliance certificates.
The VBA confirms that only a registered Building Practitioner can authorize compliance of waterproofing works. Subcontractors who are not registered cannot authorize compliance. Although they can state that they have complied with the relevant standards, liability lies primarily with the registered builder, now shared with the Building Inspector or Surveyor for wet areas.
QBCC Tradie Tours
Waterproofing is consistently one of the most common defects reported to the QBCC, with mistakes being costly. In June 2017, the QBCC presented ten waterproofing seminars throughout Queensland, dedicated to waterproofing and tiling issues with a focus on preventing waterproofing defects. Approximately 1000 builders, waterproofers, certifiers, and tilers attended these seminars.
Bayset’s Training & Quality Manager, Frank Moebus, provided in-depth information about avoiding installation problems. The Tradie Tour received positive feedback from the industry.
Project Reference: Botanicca Corporate Park
Overview:
Property Type: Commercial
Project Type: Restoration
Scope: Leaking roof joints affecting company suites
Applicator: Australian Waterproofing Company Pty Ltd
Area: 1150m²
Category: Waterproofing
Products Used:
Soprema Soprasun 3.0S
Soprema Sopradhere Primer
Soprema Alsan Flashing
Soprema Roof Vents
Project Details:
Botanicca Corporate Park experienced leaks in the roof joints that affected various company suites and balconies. The building, constructed in 2006, required a watertight roof to ensure its longevity. A 20-year warranty was provided, and the Soprema Torch On system was applied to achieve a high-quality waterproofing result, both aesthetically and functionally.
Gary Moody, project manager, described the project as challenging but rewarding due to the successful outcome achieved by the experienced applicator.
Importance of Waterproofing Standards and Compliance
Legislative Changes and Their Impact
The introduction of the Building Regulations 2017 brings significant changes to the waterproofing industry, particularly regarding inspection and compliance requirements. For the first time, building inspectors or surveyors must inspect waterproofing membranes before they are covered in any wet areas. This change emphasizes the importance of thorough inspections to prevent defects and ensure high-quality waterproofing.Exceptional Landscape Architecture Services in Melbourne

Comprehensive Guide to Balcony Waterproofing Repairs
Addressing Leaking Balconies, Roofs, and Rooftop Terraces
Leaking balconies, roofs, and rooftop terraces can cause catastrophic damage to structures below. Water leaks may cause not only aesthetic and superficial damage but can also compromise the structural integrity of the building envelope. If a failed waterproofing membrane is the cause, re-grouting or surface sealing is merely a temporary fix. Such band-aid methods will eventually fail, causing cracks in tiles, grout, and membranes as the balcony moves.
In many cases, failed membranes require a complete strip-off, structural repairs if needed, reinstallation of waterproofing, and a new finish surface. Key considerations in this process include the strength of the subfloor and screed, presence of substrate dips and hollows, correct balcony slope and fall, window and door frame installation, door threshold sealing, adequate drainage, and the potential for underlying pipe leaks. Existing tiling and expansion joints should also be assessed to determine their role in the balcony failure.
Waterproofing Preparation
Proper preparation is critical for any waterproofing membrane installation. The substrate must be clean, free of dirt and other contaminants. This involves vacuum cleaning and/or diamond grinding to ensure a smooth, dry, and debris-free surface. In some cases, washing the substrate may be necessary.
Waterproofing Detailing
Before installing a waterproofing system, construction features that interrupt the membrane layer must be adequately protected and sealed. This includes:
Perimeter Upturns: Attachment points for railings and balustrades, joints between horizontal and vertical surfaces, and structural and expansion joints. Sealant should be applied 15mm wide to all junctions, reinforced with polyester or fiberglass mat to a DFT of 1.2mm, 100mm above finished floor height, or 25mm above the water line. The membrane system should be installed 200mm onto balcony floor areas.
Door/Window Step Downs: Similar to perimeter upturns, apply sealant 15mm wide to all junctions, reinforced with fiberglass mat to a DFT of 1.2mm, ensuring the membrane system is installed 200mm onto balcony areas.
Drains & Floor Waste Details: All floor wastes should have a recessed leak control flange installed, primed with appropriate primer, and the membrane system installed as per specifications.
Waterproofing Installation: Australian Standards
The installation of a Class 2/3 waterproof membrane system to external concrete must comply with AS 4654.2. Key considerations for installation include:
Installation Conditions: Avoid installation in extreme temperatures (below 10°C or above 35°C) to prevent accelerated or decelerated cure times.
Type of Membrane: Use a flexible waterproofing membrane capable of withstanding normal cyclic fluctuations and ponding water.How Live-In Care Benefits Chronic Disease Management.pdf

The construction industry is undergoing significant changes, particularly in waterproofing. Poor practices have caught the attention of regulators, and changes are coming soon. AIW will keep members informed about these developments. We aim to eliminate subpar contractors who compromise the industry with inadequate work.
Everyone makes mistakes occasionally, but persistent issues arise from those who consistently cut corners, using insufficient materials in unsafe conditions. These practices must end.
Summer Waterproofing Challenges
As summer approaches, common questions arise regarding membrane application in hot or humid conditions:
Is it too hot or humid to apply a membrane?
Will blistering occur?
How to address blistering if it happens?
Should a warranty be issued for such membranes?
Applying membranes in inappropriate conditions often leads to failures. It’s crucial to consider the long-term repercussions of these decisions. Consult your membrane supplier for guidance and ensure you ask the right questions. Industry peers are often willing to help.

Advancing Waterproofing Expertise with AIW
Waterproofing Melbourne and beyond, the Australian Institute of Waterproofing (AIW) is proud to introduce an innovative commercial waterproofing course. Developed in collaboration with the Master Builders Association Vic, this course, led by Andrew Golle, is tailored for project managers overseeing balcony waterproofing, roof waterproofing, and concrete repair. Paul Evans emphasizes the critical nature of these roles in preventing costly post-construction issues. Private sessions for building supervisors are now available, addressing common mistakes due to poor applications and cost-cutting measures.
The course covers essential topics, including product selection, surface preparation, and the importance of basement waterproofing. Paul Evans highlights the recurring problems seen in the industry, where inadequate training and oversight lead to significant issues, from retaining wall waterproofing to lift pit waterproofing.
In response to these challenges, the AIW is developing a "Below Ground Waterproofing Standard" specific to Australia, inspired by UK standards. Paul Evans calls for industry-wide collaboration to ensure the standard encompasses diverse methods and materials, ultimately enhancing the quality and longevity of waterproofing work.
By equipping supervisors and builders with the right knowledge, AIW aims to improve the overall standard of waterproofing practices, reducing the risk of failures and the subsequent mental and financial stress on homeowners. This proactive approach is crucial for the sustainability and reliability of waterproofing in construction projects across Australia.9861615390 Satta Dpboss Satta Matka Satta
