Building Mycology - Management of Decay and Health in Buildings (Hardcover)

The estimated cost of repairing damage caused by fungal decay in buildings amounts to 400 million pounds a year in the UK alone. This book deals with the study of fungi in and around the building environment, having direct and indirect effects on the health of the building, its materials, structures and occupants. Fungi can be responsible for damage to building structures, to contents, decorations and food stuff; and to the health of occupants. This text provides an authoritative survey of present knowledge. This book should be of interest to construction, industrial, health research laboratories, public health and building pathology specialists and conservationists.
