waterproofing; flashing; weathering
Construction term for measures that prevent rain from entering a building, including flashing, sealing, and drainage details.
If the waterproofing is insufficient, it can cause leaks.
この建物は雨仕舞いに優れた設計です。
This building has a design with excellent weatherproofing.
Standard kanji spelling with okurigana.
Variant without okurigana, also seen.
Mixed kana-kanji spelling, common in practical contexts.
Compound of 雨 (rain) and 仕舞い (finishing, from 仕舞う 'to put away, to finish'). The term likely originated in carpentry and architecture to describe the final treatment that keeps rain out.
