If I understand you correctly, waterproofing details are usually added as annotations in sections and section details.

It may be that your practice in Belgium requires something I am unfamiliar with. The project I worked on in the Netherlands was pretty much like the US when it came to waterproofing details. (Of course I know that Belgium is NOT necessarily going to be like the Netherlands )

if it's feasable i put a thick, dashed separater line into my composite wall make-up. it doesn't always work well for every type of wall, and can stuff up the dimensioning if it's not thought through, but generally seems to work.

if this method isn't feasable then as matthew said - you're in to simply annotating it after the section has been built . . .
