A.2 Structural assemblies with bonded drainage over bonded waterproofing assemblies
The sloped support structure is protected against the permeation of water with a Schlüter®-KERDI bonded waterproofing assembly, which is produced with a dry set mortar in the thin-bed method. The passive capillary bonded drainage membrane Schlüter®-DITRA-DRAIN is installed in the thin-bed mortar between the waterproofing layer and the tile covering. This results in the broad ventilation of the top covering, which in turn promotes the quick and even drying/curing of the thin-bed mortar. The uncoupling function of Schlüter®-DITRADRAIN neutralisies any stresses occurring in the substrate.
