Lesson 5 • Exterior Sheathing and Weatherproofing
Covers structural sheathing installation, house wrap application, and flashing details. These elements form the building's first line of defence against moisture.
Chapter 4HideHide detailsSee detailsConcrete, Masonry, and Foundations
Concrete, Masonry, and Foundations
Lesson 1 • Masonry Unit Installation
Develops skills in laying concrete block and brick with proper mortar joints and coursing. Masonry work must achieve plumb, level, and bond pattern requirements.
Lesson 2 • Concrete Placement and Finishing
Teaches consolidation, screeding, floating, and troweling techniques. Proper finishing produces durable, level surfaces that meet specification tolerances.
Lesson 3 • Formwork Construction and Stripping
Covers wall form systems, footing forms, and shoring requirements. Properly built forms ensure dimensional accuracy and safe concrete placement.
Lesson 4 • Concrete Materials and Mix Design
Explains cement types, aggregate selection, water-cement ratio, and admixtures. Mix design decisions directly affect strength, workability, and durability.
Lesson 5 • Foundation Waterproofing and Drainage
Covers dampproofing coatings, waterproof membranes, and perimeter drainage systems. Effective waterproofing prevents structural damage from subsurface moisture.
