masonry or concrete walls that are in contact with the ground, where the ground
level outside is higher than the ground level inside, and a separate interior

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of moisture becoming trapped between
interior dampproofing and low-permeance materials placed inboard of the dampproofing,
which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to compromised structural
integrity of elements inboard of the dampproofing, which could lead to structural
failure, which could lead to harm to persons. |
