A system for a basement concrete form and drainage are disclosed. The system may include a lineal that is a horizontal concrete form for a footer for a wall and a basement floor. The lineal may include a rectilinear tubular structure having a cavity, an outer wall, and drain perforations in the outer wall to permit fluid transmission from the cavity to an exterior of the lineal. In addition, a retainer may be mounted to a stake for the basement concrete form when the stake is embedded in a formation underlying the lineal. The retainer may be selectively vertically positioned along the stake to adjust a height of the lineal relative to the underlying formation.

Waterproofing bonding coating compositions comprise synthetic film-forming polymer having very small average particle size within emulsion systems that enable the coating to be used on various substrates, including formwork, conventional as well as pre-applied waterproofing membranes, and even on other coatings, to provide an excellent waterproofing bond with post-cast concrete. Waterproofing bonding coating compositions can be applied in liquid form upon various substrates and building surfaces. They can be used in the manner of a bonding coating layer, or additional bonding coating layer, when applied upon membranes installed at the building site, or, alternatively, when incorporated onto the membrane as an outermost layer at the membrane manufacturing plant. The waterproofing bonding coating can be used to enhance water- and weather-resistance in both conventional and pre-applied waterproofing membranes.
