Meaning: Damp Proof course
Bricklayers are responsible for building-in damp-proof courses and cavity trays to prevent
the penetration of rainwater and ground moisture.
If the installation of a damp-proof course (DPC) is not done with skill, care and attention,
dampness may cause:
• Timber to rot.
• Plaster to deteriorate.
• The effectiveness of any thermal insulation to be reduced.
Repairing any damage caused by dampness can prove to be very expensive and
distressing to the occupants of the building.
The provision of a DPC in a building, or a free standing wall, is intended to provide a barrier
to the passage of water from:
• The exterior to the interior of the building.
• The ground to the structure.
• One part of the structure to another.
This passage of water may be horizontal, upwards or downwards and, if measures to
counteract it are not taken with care, dampness may result and the effectiveness of thermal
insulation may be reduced.
Full form of DPC is Damp Proff Course which will be applied at the baement level or preventing dampness to the building..
