Malthoid is a 2 ply felt material impregnated with bitumen which is also covered in a fine sand to prevent sticking when rolled. Malthoid is used for waterproofing of flat roofs and under corrugated iron water tanks, to prevent condensation corrosion.
Usage:
For prevention of rising moisture up through walls of brickwork etc.,

A damp proof course ( dpc ) is a physical barrier inserted into the fabric of a building to stop water passing from one place to another. This can be on a horizontal plane, stopping water rising up from the ground by being sucked up by the dry masonry above, or vertically to stop water passing from the outside of a building, though the masonry, to the inside. Dpc's have taken many forms through the ages and one of the earliest forms was to use a layer of slate in the construction. Slate is still used but the less expensive plastic version ( below right ) is now more widely used.
