Abstract
It should be pointed out that salt crystallisation and rising dampness
are two separate but interconnected processes. Both of these damages
must be understood if damage is to be minimized and if corrective
measures are to be successful. However, the term rising damp has
been usually used to cover both aspects, it tends to overlook the role of
salt, and issues that will increasingly significant due to the buildings are
getting older and as the soils are becoming more saline. Hence this paper
will focus on background and an understanding of salt crystallisation
and rising damp problems. Furthermore, the discussion also will include
the indications, causes and effects of both damages.
