Explains the principles involved in condensation and the conditions producing condensation, both atmospheric and other sources of moisture. The behaviour of absorbent materials and surfaces is described. Interstitial condensation is explained. Designing to avoid condensation, taking account of the characteristics of the building fabric and the environment, is necessary. A worked example of estimating condensation risk is given.
