Hello, I am in the process of deciding how I want an outbuilding constructed.
It will be semi-basement, so I was thinking of using some leca blocks about 1000mm high. On top of that, a wooden frame structure.
Now I get a little pocket like the one in the picture here where I am concerned that moisture problems may arise.
Will this become a real problem?

Circled the area in red and added some water drops :)

There you place a metal sheet that directs any water out.

Yes, diverting the water with something inorganic could be a solution.
One might create a slope of 20 degrees with the angle grinder in the brick.
Perhaps an unnecessarily much job though.

An image of my current thought.

Or you place the rule further out on the Leca so the water runs past instead.
 
No ground case needed. As already pointed out, place a sheet metal under the plaster that goes down a few centimeters over the foundation, but not longer than the panel covers it. Let the sheet metal be bent slightly so the water runs off. Move the lowest nailing strip up a bit.

That's what I did on my house.

Thank you for your responses, I can therefore continue with the current idea.(y) I don't have to decide how it will be solved yet, it's enough to know that it can be solved.

Let the sill paper/sill insulation go over the edge of the stone. That is enough. The panel also covers the paper, so there will be no appearance issues.

That's what I was considering as well, but I concluded that metal felt more secure since water penetrating behind the panel could otherwise reach the syll.
