Ref Code: GR33
Authors: C Stirling

Abstract1: This Good Repair Guide provides building professionals with examples of analytical techniques which can be used to supplement visual information on the identification of moisture problems. The number of techniques is large so only a limited number can be reviewed. Part 1 summarises the sources of moisture in building fabric and gives advice on analysing the possible causes. Part 2 discusses a range of techniques available for measuring moisture content in building materials and Part 3 gives advice on how to interpret the data from moisture and environmental data.
