This standard covers how to diagnose and treat rising damp, and how to install a damp-proof course. It emphasizes the need to differentiate between rising damp and other causes of damp conditions. It gives recommendations for the chemical treatment of rising damp in existing buildings with solid walls, cavity walls (unfilled or filled) and random rubble-filled walls. Essential precautions and procedures for installing chemical damp-proof courses are also indicated.
