Installation
When installing a DPM, even though it has a high puncture resistance care should always be taken to avoid accidental damage
and a suitable blinding should be used. Where the area is subject to high foot traffic temporary protection boards should be used to
maintain the integrity of the membrane and its jointing.
Jointing & Surface Fixing
When jointing Solcourse DPM a minimum of 150mm

is to be joined / adhered using the Solco Double Sided
Butyl Tape between membranes and the 75mm single
sided lapping tape to seal the outer edge and provide a
continuous bond.
In order to provide effective protection the bond

between the dpm and the dpc should be continuous.
To ensure a satisfactory bonding is made, the Solco Typical Jointing Detail

range of system accessories should always be used.
