Summary/Abstract: Water tries to infiltrate the roof and facade joints. It is important to choose waterproofing materials according to the type of roof, to apply and to dissolve the details of the regions penetrating the roof, for the performance and continuity of waterproofing. The biggest problems in the outer shell of the above ground structure are due to the selection and application of faulty materials. In this study, it was aimed to determine the waterproofing material criteria of the architects and engineers by examining the preferences and solutions of waterproofing materials on the roofs and facades and to make the most common and appropriate insulation material choices by revealing the experiences of the past construction site. In the study, roof and facade waterproofing applications, materials and selection criteria of 50 constructions in the same climate zone and district were investigated. In the examination, it was seen that waterproofing was not done in the structures where shingle and metal roof roofing were used. In the chimney and parapet regions, measures are taken in all buildings. On the façades, it was found that water repellent paints were widely used against the impact of water, but it was determined that there was no measure against the water except for the curtain wall joinery.
