Timber decay in buildings: the conservation approach to treatment.
Ridout, Brian
Timber decay in buildings: the conservation approach to treatment. - London E & F N Spon 1999 - xvi,232p. ; 25cm.
The treatment of dry rot, death watch beetle and other pests of timber has changed radically throughout the twentieth century. Timber decay involves more than a simple relationship between wood and pesticides; it is also a complex series of interactions between wood, decay organisms and the building environment. This book seeks to explain these interactions, and their implications for timber conservation.
