The accurate answer is yes - but only within defined conditions and limits. “Waterproof” applies to specific Dincel wall products, installed in a specific way, and it does not automatically cover junctions, interfaces, or penetrations unless extra measures are taken. This guide explains what that means, using the same requirements and constraints set out in the manufacturer’s waterproof wall conditions and qualifications. What Dincel Means by “Select Dincel Products” “Select

If you’re comparing Dincel Wall and Versaloc blocks, you’re probably trying to lock in a walling system that meets structural requirements, stays on program, and doesn’t create waterproofing or finishing headaches later. This guide compares both options in practical terms: where each system fits, what affects install speed and cost, and what to confirm before you commit. If you want a second set of eyes on your drawings, Murs Projects can review your wall layout and flag cons

Labour is still tight in Australia, and construction costs are not easing in a way that makes delays “absorbed” anymore. For townhouse, duplex, and multi-residential projects, as well as any other construction projects, the risk in 2026 is not just the rate you pay per trade. That is why structural wall choice matters. A wall system that supports cleaner sequencing and fewer trade touchpoints can protect programme certainty and reduce preliminaries, holding costs, and complia

Dincel walls are now common on basements, retaining walls, lift shafts and cores across New South Wales. As more projects specify Dincel in Australia, questions about Dincel wall cost have become more urgent and more detailed. Builders, engineers and developers want more than a rough “$ per square metre”. Dincel supplies the walling system. Independent contractors install it. The final cost per square metre depends on wall type, site conditions, labour productivity and concr

Choosing between dincel wall vs block wall is a practical call about program speed, waterproofing risk, and compliance - not brand preference. This guide is for NSW builders, PMs, site managers and estimators who need clean installs, predictable FRL/acoustic outcomes, and fewer delays from weather, cranage, or scaffolding. We compare how each system behaves on site: cycle times, joints and leakage risk in basements, FRL pathways, acoustic (Rw/Ctr) considerations, access and d

In retaining wall construction, safety starts below the surface. One principle that often comes up, especially during early design is the 1:3 rule . It’s a simple idea with serious implications: for every metre of wall above ground, a third of that height should sit below ground. But how accurate is this rule? And does it apply to your project? This blog will unpack what the 1:3 rule actually means, when it’s valid, and where it falls short. We’ll also look at local complianc

Structural walls aren’t something most people think about until they start cracking, leaning, or costing you thousands to repair. If you’ve ever had to fix a failing retaining wall or rebuild one that wasn’t designed properly, you know how expensive and frustrating it can get. The good news? Those problems are avoidable. In this guide, we’ll show you how to future-proof your property by making smarter decisions during planning, design, and construction so you don’t end up stu

Retaining walls are built to last but when something goes wrong, it often goes wrong fast. Whether it’s leaning, cracking, or fully collapsing, retaining wall failure isn’t just a structural issue, it’s a safety risk, a financial headache, and a liability problem. This guide explains exactly what causes retaining wall failure, the warning signs to watch for, and most importantly, how to fix the problem properly the first time. What Is Retaining Wall Failure?
