Hi.
I am building single story rear extension. I'm at dpc level.
I'm going to put starter plate on above dpc and tie in on block above dpc.
Do I place dpc behind the wall starter? Seen it done by a few builders.
Also I have read about vDPC. Is it a cut in new cavity and just hand a piece of dpm in it? Where exactly does it go and which way should it fold. Is it necessary on party wall side (my neighbor has conservatory which my extension is about 25cm away)
Cheers
