Waterproofing is no longer just a trade issue.

The NCC 2025 preview points to a deeper shift: falls, substrates and waterproofing interfaces are being pushed further upstream, into earlier and more explicit design resolution.

That matters in every project. But in MMC, the implication is sharper.

Early resolution is not enough. It has to become fabrication-ready, inspection-ready and sign-off-ready.

This is why waterproofing is becoming a system test, not a trade package.

True MMC is not an alternative to conventional building. It is a system logic for making uncertainty harder to hide.
