The foundation drain consisted of flinch perforated pipe overlying a plastic liner and bedded in gravel around the below grade exterior perimeter of the structure. The gravel was covered with filter fabric. Various locations were spot checked and measured from the top of the footing to determine slope and the drain appeared to slope toward the basement sump pit. The damp proofing consisted of a grey spray -on coating that appeared to cover all exterior below grade living areas of the basement walls.
