Moisture in buildings is a major contributor to mold growth, unhealthy buildings, and poor indoor air quality. Moisture control and management is the key to preventing mold damage in buildings, both during and after construction. If not effectively controlled, moisture during the construction process will not only cause costly damage to materials and equipment, resulting in budget and schedule impacts, there are additional risks of costly remediation and liability following project completion .
Managing moisture is especially critical during construction projects, particularly during key phases such as immediately before and after the building envelope is tight. Water intrusion and wet processes are part of construction; an effective moisture and mold management program during the project anticipates these activities and prevents costly remediation and schedule delays . This training program is designed to give you the information and tools you need to properly manage moisture during construction and minimize your risk.
The information presented and tools provided during this program were developed by experts at EH&E and are designed to provide management teams (and anyone responsible for ensuring that construction projects are successful) with cost effective strategies to internally implement a mold and moisture management program for your construction project. You will be provided with all the tools and information necessary to develop a written mold and moisture management plan, for training onsite personnel in moisture and mold awareness and prevention techniques, and for recognizing, managing, and tracking moisture and mold issues that are a part of every construction project.
Instruction will cover:
-
Mold and moisture risks during construction.
-
Mold and moisture issues and prevention strategies during construction.
-
Mold and moisture assessment techniques.
-
Procedures for addressing moisture and/or mold-impacted building materials.
-
Developing and implementing a successful mold and moisture management program during construction.
You will also receive the following:
-
Construction moisture and mold management plan template.
-
Construction team training presentation (PowerPoint).
-
Site inspection checklist.
-
Up to one hour of telephone assistance on your next project.
The instructors will use case study examples throughout to give you practical examples of this program in action.
