**Waterproofing and Thermal Insulation**

### Waterproofing:

Waterproofing is the process of protecting buildings and structures from the effects of water and moisture. Various materials and methods are used to prevent water from seeping into the building or structure, thus protecting surfaces, foundations, and walls from water damage. Waterproofing is commonly applied to roofs, foundations, bathrooms, and swimming pools. Some of the materials used in waterproofing include:

- Bituminous membranes

- Polyurethane materials

- Waterproof coatings

- Plastic insulation sheets

### Thermal Insulation:

Thermal insulation is the process of reducing heat transfer between the interior and exterior of a building, helping to maintain stable indoor temperatures. The purpose of thermal insulation is to improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs. Thermal insulation is usually applied to roofs, walls, floors, and windows. Some of the materials used in thermal insulation include:

- Fiberglass

- Rock wool

- Polyurethane foam

- Polystyrene boards

Both types of insulation help improve the comfort of buildings, protect them from damage, and reduce energy consumption.
