Details

This research report on the drying out of flooded buildings looks at the processes involved and the existing guidance available. It also lists this guidance, much of which is freely available.

The research was carried out for the government by a consortium headed by the Construction Industry Research and Information Association (CIRIA), including the University of Wolverhampton, and commissioned following summer floods of 2007 and subsequent Pitt Review.
