   [Cob] RE: Coblist Digest, QuestionBob & Lorraine farmlink at bigpond.comMon Oct 31 16:23:23 CST 2005 
 From:  Lorraine Z
Topic:  Foundations and waterproofing.
        What do others do about waterproofing between foundations and
their cob walls?  As most cobbers seem to have foundation rocks butting
up into their walls rather than building a flat-topped foundation, it's
not possible to use a waterproof membrane.  We've priced commercial
waterproofing solutions for adding into the foundation mix, and this
would be far too expensive for us.  Your comments would be much
appreciated.
