1973
Scheffer, Theodore C. (Theodore Comstock) | Verrall, A. F. (Arthur Frederic)
Problems caused by decay in buildings in the United States and the means to avoid or control them are dealt with in this work. The principal moisture situations and construction features most responsible for the occurrence of decay in various building parts are described, and directions are given for appropriately modifying or eliminating undesirable conditions. Emphasis throughout is on the two primary means of protecting against decay: (1) The use of dry wood and of construction methods to keep wood dry, and (2) methods to treat wood with a suitable preservative in areas where dry conditions cannot be maintained. The work is based on observations and research for more than 40 years by agencies of the Department of Agriculture in cooperation with the Department of Defense and the Federal Housing Administration, Department of Housing and Urban Development.
