Dampness in Dwellings: Causes and Effects de David Ormandy

Dampness in Dwellings: Causes and Effects: Routledge Focus on Environmental Health

Autor David Ormandy, Veronique Ezratty, Stephen Battersby
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 mai 2022
This book provides a definition of dampness in each of its forms, details the various potential sources, and causes that can result in damage to the building, and importantly, the threats to the health of the occupiers. It is practical, providing an outline of the possible solutions looking at aspects of building design and construction that can reduce or avoid the risk of dampness. It also discusses why dampness is a risk to the health of occupiers and so justifies the need to protect health by reducing or removing it. Co-authored by a medical doctor and environmental health practitioners with combined experience of over 50 years, this book includes:
  • Explanations and justifications for why dampness is important, and why remedial action must be taken.
  • Up-to-date information on the causes, effects, and remedies of damp in the housing environments.
Dampness in Dwellings is a pivotal resource for professionals in the housing, medical, and legal sectors.

Recenzii

"As the design of our homes becomes ever more sophisticated, the physics of those buildings becomes critical. Whereas our older building stock were to a certain extent tolerant of error, today’s need for airtightness and insulation demand exacting standards. Whilst many professionals may have a working knowledge of dampness and its causes, it is vital that concepts of water transport, condensation and mycology are understood. This book brings together the skills and knowledge of established experts in the field and will provide a valuable link between scientific theory and its practical application." - Trevor Rushton FRICS FCABE, Technical Director, Watts Group Limited
