Advises facilities managers and building services engineers about the facts of toxic mould in the built environment, how to avoid the conditions in which mould growth thrives and which areas within buildings have the greatest likelihood of sustaining mould growth. Reflects upon recent compensation claims in the USA, and the debate surrounding innovations in design and construction techniques being criticised for the increasing occurrence of mould in new buildings.
