Abstract:
This book considers the performance of the main building elements in relation to moisture exclusion and looks in detail at condensation and rising dampness. A chapter on diagnosis includes a checklist of likely causes. The new edition includes more material on several topics, including dampness in masonry, problems arising from modern construction techniques, new materials, material incompatibility, and the difficulties associated with assessing dampness in buildings.
