Description

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

For years, damp buildings were thought to generate negative health effects. Until recently, the magnitude of health effects has not been quantified. The mechanisms which lead to negative effects were not understood. Research advances have provided a clearer path towards understanding what levels of dampness are problematic, what the specific links are between asthma and dampness, and what strategies are effective in reducing moisture accumulation. The presentations describe results of research as well as new guidance for architects, mechanical system designers and owners. The information is also be of interest to occupants of buildings which are perceived to be damp.
