Reinforced Concrete Block Wall Will A Concrete Foundation Be Damaged By Damp Or Soaked Soil?

Will a concrete foundation be damaged by damp or soaked soil? - reinforced concrete block wall

Foundation's 20 + years, has a background poured concrete and concrete blocks and Motaro "walls. It is a problem of filtration (for "concrete blocks and Motaro" walls only), if the soil is saturated d 'heavy rain.

Is the foundation (concrete or Motaro) periodic collapse in case of attack by stagnant water from the rain? If so, the reclassification is not a question of improving the drainage of water, you have suggestions for the reorganization and strengthening of damaged "concrete blocks and Motaro 'walls?

Thank you!

I found that my foundation is forming now, since I started in my garden water. I am sure that your course under the foundation and caused some damage to my celerium. My floor is uneven celerium, so I'm pretty sure that the water goes under the foundation. I do not know why. Except that instead of using my irrigation system not to encourage waterfowl to touch him to use the concrete. If (you have found the answer and hopefully) make a good entrepreneur. That's what I do.

Reclassification of the landscape is the place to start and then continue with the guttering and downpipes. In some homes it can collect for an underground sewage water at the bottom of the outer foundation walls and get rid of them is by gravity to a lower place on the property (in particular the slope below the house) or a sump pump pit. It is an impermeable barrier to water, which is on the outer walls of the basement in the building that need repair will be applied this work to get rid of expensive, so rainwater before that he reached the first house, and then see whether this is the problem solves.
Yes, the wall can be damaged by water seepage push more pressure on the wall in the collapse of moisture, water is the destructive force that hit a house, as soon as possible.

The probability of damage depends on the probability of the presence of sulfates and chlorides in the rain ..... If you are unsure about something, you'd better seal your concrete with a bituminous material or whaterver.

Looking detachment or deterioration of the concrete, is whether the damage to steel or not come, if so, you must remove loose concrete and clean the frame and the application of new concrete.

Otherwise, you can manually remove the posting and sealing of wells

As someone said the biggest problem is the hydraulic pressure against the wall. Concrete is porous, at least the water is sealed happen. The most effective way to seal is a type of waterproof membrane on the outer surface of the foundation to apply (tar, plastic sheeting, hydraulic cement, etc.) The water pressure may force trying to cross the coatings formed in the autumn. If the water is acidic and damage to concrete, however, whether neutral or alkaline, not to cause injury. The biggest problem is mold on the inner surface of the founding of the excess moisture.
