Abstract

Dry rot of timber, caused by the fungus Serpula lacrymans, is a serious problem not only in domestic and commercial buildings worldwide, but also in important historic edifices. John Palfreyman and Nia White describe the dry-rot fungus and the conditions necessary for its growth, how it causes timber to decay and what can be done to prevent and control its effects.
