Summary
Water comes in four forms: solid, liquid, vapour and adsorbed. All four forms can pose problems for building owners, designers and contractors. When water causes building problems, investigating and diagnosing the problem can be challenging because water constantly changes its form inside a building and within its materials. The investigator must hunt down the water by thinking like water.
