To clarify i want to put a stud wall along the edge of the perimeter drain.
Stud out a concrete wall with french drain.
You can bump the framing out in front of the drain but you will lose a lot of space that way.
Basement is about 50x30 ft.
Now here are my questions.
See pics do i frame the walls right on top of the lip or do i put the frames in front of it frames will essentially be 6 5 inches away from the wall in this case.
We plugged the original dime sized hole but obviously the water still seeps through in that general area it would be fine to leave that area unfinished.
As for the inside if water get s in and runs down the wall you must have a gap between the framing and the wall to let it run into the drain tile.
My basement has a french drain around the perimeter.
The lip is 2 25 inches high and 6 5 inches deep.
I have french drains around the perimeter of the basement with a little curb like lip in front of the walls.
The water seeps into the french drain in one corner only.
Preferably with metal studs and dry walls.
Do i put 2 inch rigid foam on the cinder block wall it would be over the drain and then add the stud wall to meet.
I would not put my bottom plate on top of the gravel of the french drain.
It is not an external french drain its a french drain along the walls that drain into a sump pump.
