ASTM 2008, ASTM E241 Standard Guide for Limiting Water-Induced Damage to Buildings 2008.
1. Scope
1.1 This guide concerns building design, construction, commissioning, operation, and maintenance.
1.2 This guide addresses the need for systematic evaluation of factors that can result in moisture-induced damage to a building or its components. Although of great potential importance, serviceability issues which are often, but not necessarily, related to physical damage of the building or its components (for example, indoor air quality or electrical safety) are not directly addressed in this guide.
