As awareness about the drawbacks of water leakage within the structure. Several waterproofing methods are implemented across the world to stop water from entering the structure. The brickbat coba system of waterproofing has been followed and applied throughout India, except in some industries where the importance of waterproofing is paramount, as their equipment or machinery and high-cost MEP services are installed. The waterproofing contractors are following and applying the typical traditional method because of the low cost and simply available material. They know the drawbacks of this method. It's not only their mistake to follow the tactic but also the engineering practitioner also uses such a system as scarcity of information and awareness. The literature review presents the modern technique of the waterproofing methods and their application across the globe and tries to explore the properties of bituminous felt and their importance in modern waterproofing methods. it shows how it'll be better enough than the typical method. The results are published within the research paper on the basis of laboratory tests and their sustainability through the life cycle. Get the information about the drawbacks and

The author proposed a laboratory test method to check the membrane properties of vapour and water permeability against hydrostatic pressure for a basement structure with two types of membrane.

The test apparatus is useful for measuring parameters and applying them to field conditions.

To avoid defects in the application of bitumen felt, a minimum of two layers is suggested.
