Premature staining of new buildings - causes and remedies
States that over the last decade an increasing number of new buildings have become disfigured in the first few years of their use. Outlines a recent major study of this phenomenon and investigates the following areas: what premature staining is and what effects it can have; the mechanisms of the staining process; building features that commonly give rise to staining problems; strategies for remedial measures once staining has occurred. Presents unique yet practical solutions to this increasing problem and concludes that the key to avoiding staining is a detailed consideration of a broad range of issues at all stages of the design and construction process.
