    So, currently I like this idea, does anyone have a recommendation on any product I could apply between the stem wall and existing pad to seal the joint such that water does not penetrate?

    Poured Stem Wall on Top of slab?

    You mention "waterproofing".. are you referring to waterproofing/sealing the joint between the existing slab and the new stem wall? Is this important to waterproof and why? Is it that trapped moisture will eventually cause the concrete to fail? How does a block stem wall differ in this aspect?
