Ok sir

Good one. Been reading your thread for the past few minutes. Good job I can see. Will definitely need talking to you on a project. Please, keep the updates coming. Will connect with you on IG and send you an email as well.

Good job.

To those just discovering Skimanski.

His attention to detail and finished products rivals the best in USA.

Good luck to all of us on our projects.

If you don't mind and while we wait for Herr Dokter Professor.

DPM = Damp Proof Membrane.

It's plastic membrane (basic really) that is laid down on the bare earth (laterite or sand filling) and before pouring the concrete slab (german floor).

This prevents moisture from rising up from the ground into the floors and walls. If you've seen some homes that have peeling paint and walls down near the ground then that's usually caused by rising damp (moisture).

They also use this membrane on suspended slab (decking) on top of the wood support but below the iron and plumbing works. They use this not for moisture but to have a smoother surface on the ceilings.

Yes there are many choices.

Can I ask you to open a thread so that we don't pollute Skimanskis thread?

Please mention me when you do so.

About the bold in your comment;
Will this membrane on the suspended slab be peeled off prior to the ceiling getting screeded, or it remains in place?

The ones that I've seen have been peeled off to reveal a smooth surface.

The idea, I think, is that the screeder will then use less materials to attain a good finish.

Incidentally, if I was to build a storied building then I would appreciate the wood transfer finish (pics below) and wouldn't want to hide it.
