An exemplary moisture barrier membrane 10 comprises a waterproof adhesive layer, (14) a carrier support, (12) and a release liner (16) composite having a paper sheet, (20) cutting strings, (22) a polyolefin (24) coating or film for holding the strings against the paper and apart from the waterproof

An exemplary moisture barrier membrane 10 comprises a waterproof adhesive layer, (14) a carrier support, (12) and a release liner (16) composite having a paper sheet, (20) cutting strings, (22) a polyolefin (24) coating or film for holding the strings against the paper and apart from the waterproof adhesive layer, and a release agent (26) such as silicone or wax over the polyolefin coating or film. This construction allows for relatively thin paper and strings to be used, such that tear resistance is conferred upon the release liner composite as a whole.

We claim: 1. A moisture barrier, comprising: a waterproofing adhesive layer having a first major side contiguous with a carrier support sheet and having a second major side to which is releasably attached a release liner composite that is generally coextensive with and at least as wide as said waterproofing adhesive layer and is not folded along its edge, said release liner composite comprising: a paper sheet; a plurality of strings positioned against or adjacent to a major face of the paper sheet, said strings arranged in spaced apart relation to each other and operative to cut the paper sheet when one of the strings is pulled through the paper; and a continuous polyolefin coating or film positioned between said waterproofing adhesive layer and said plurality of strings, said continuous polyolefin coating or film being bonded with said paper sheet and operative to maintain said strings in spaced apart relation adjacent said paper sheet; said release liner composite further comprising a release coating positioned between said waterproofing adhesive layer and said continuous polyolefin coating or film, said release coating operative to provide releasable-adhesion between said release liner composite and said waterproofing adhesive layer; and said waterproofing adhesive layer being wider than said carrier support sheet, such that the membrane has exposed adhesive edge beads extending beyond at least one edge of said carrier support sheet when installed on a building surface. 2. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said release liner composite, on a face remote from the waterproofing adhesive layer, is coated with a release material along the longitudinal margin edges of the release liner composite corresponding with said edge-beads of said waterproofing adhesive layer which extends beyond the edge of said carrier support sheet. 3. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said paper sheet comprises strip-coatings of release material on a face of the paper sheet opposite the major face of the paper sheet on which said strings are arranged, each of said strip-coatings corresponding to the location of a cutting string situated on the opposite side of the paper sheet. 4. The moisture barrier of claim 3 wherein said strip-coatings comprise a release agent or polyolefin. 5. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said paper sheet of said release liner composite has an average thickness of not less than 1 mil and not greater than 4 mils. 6. The moisture barrier of claim 5 wherein said polyolefin coating or film of said release liner composite has an average thickness not less than 0.05 mils and not greater than 1.5 mils. 7. The moisture barrier of claim 6 wherein said polyolefin coating or film is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene and polypropylene. 8. The moisture barrier of claim 7 wherein said release coating that is coated against said polyolefin coating or film of said release liner composite has an average coating thickness not less than 0.05 mil and no greater than 1.0 mil. 9. The moisture barrier of claim 8 wherein said release liner composite is coated on a side opposite said waterproofing adhesive membrane at margin edges with a release agent in an average coating thickness no less than 0.05 mil and not greater than 1.0 mil. 10. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said paper sheet has an average basis weight not less than 40 gms/m2 and not greater than 90 gms/m2. 11. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said paper sheet has an average basis weight not less than 50 gms/m2 and not greater than 85 gms/m2. 12. The moisture barrier of claim 1 wherein said paper sheet has an average basis weight not less than 60 gms/m2 and not greater than 80 gms/m2. 13. A method for installing a moisture barrier, comprising: positioning in unrolled form, onto a building or civil engineering surface, the moisture barrier of claim 1; and removing said release liner composite, or a portion thereof, at an angle with respect to the longitudinal direction of said positioned moisture barrier, thereby to attach said moisture barrier.
