I am working on a project where they want to add a full basement to an existing single family home. This is on a flat lot where the water table according to the soils report will be approximately 8 feet below grade at its estimated highest point. The city will not allow under slab or behind the wall drainage or sump pumps. I don't have a problem designing them for hydrostatic pressure, but I am concerned about moisture intrusion into the basement. Their answer is to install good waterproofing. Any advice on a good waterproofing system or disclaimers that I should add to the drawings? The project is in the SF Bay Area. In my mind, all waterproofing systems eventually leak. Thank you for your input.
