    30、and (5) documentation andreporting. Every component of the basic assessment shownbelow may be considered optional, since even some of themost basic steps may not be needed for certain well-definedsituations.4.3 When the information from the basic assessment isinsufficient to support decision-making,

    31、 additional proceduresfor a follow-up study may include: (1) characterizing sitemoisture in greater detail to assist in locating suspect fungalgrowth and controlling excess moisture; (2) accessing surfaceslikely to harbor hidden fungal growth; and/or (3) sampling ifnecessary to test a specific hypot

Significance and Use5.1 This guide presents options for a systematic assessmentof fungal growth in buildings.5.2 This guide allows for site-specific flexibility and profes-sional judgment in the choice of assessment procedures. It maynot be necessary to perform in its entirety the basic ass

    37、 enlist arebeyond the scope of this guide.6. Background Information6.1 Fungal Biology:6.1.1 Fungal GrowthFungi constitute over 25 % of theearths biomass and are naturally present in every indoor andoutdoor environment. Fungal spores (small propagules emittedfrom surface growth) are ubiquitous in air

    38、 and settled dust.Fungal growth requires sufficient available moisture that issustained for a sufficient time, a suitable food source/substrate,and a favorable range of temperature and pH. Both active andinactive (past) growth are termed “colonization” (5, 6, 7).Fungi can become dormant only to resu

    39、me growth again inresponse to changing environmental conditions (for example,during periodic moisture intrusions).6.1.2 Fungal Spore ProductionFungal spores are pro-duced during active growth, but may be released into the aireither during active growth or dormancy. Where fungal growthis located behi

    40、nd a wall, wall covering, ceiling, or carpet,spores may, but are less likely to reach the occupied spacethrough this physical barrier (the potential for infiltrationdepends on pressure differentials, filtration, occupant activities,barrier openings and other pathways, etc.) (8, 9, 10, 3).6.1.3 Funga

    41、l VariationTypes and concentrations of air-borne or surface fungal spores at a given site as well ascolonization vary substantially as they are influenced by manynatural and manmade factors. Because of this variability,testing based on a limited number of samples may not berepresentative (6, 7).6.2

    42、Fungal Growth in a Building:6.2.1 Indoor fungal growth is generally observed on sur-faces subject to one or more of these conditions:6.2.1.1 condensation;6.2.1.2 spills, leaks or floods;6.2.1.3 consistent wetting, such as from landscape sprin-klers;6.2.1.4 sustained elevated humidity;6.2.1.5 wicking

    43、 due to capillary action from wet material.6.2.2 Whether or not fungal growth actually occurs isdependent on:6.2.2.1 substrate porosity (for example, materials such ascarpet tack strip and conventional drywall are highlysusceptible),6.2.2.2 moisture resistance (for example, some drywall,gypsum plast

    44、er and sheathing products are modified to resistmoisture or to limit water storage and/or are treated with ananti-microbial agent),6.2.2.3 moisture duration (for example, leaks which aresingle events or intermittent may dry before fungal growth isinitiated; elevated humidity typically does not trigg

    45、er fungalgrowth unless it is sustained),6.2.2.4 air circulation and dehumidification (for example,moisture may remained trapped when sealed behindbaseboards, attached furniture or vapor barriers).6.3 Detection of Fungal Growth:6.3.1 Fungus grows on an appropriate substrate. Fungalgrowth is associate

    46、d with biodegradable building materials (forexample, paper covered gypsum wallboard, wood, ceilingtiles). It will not grow on inorganic materials (for example,masonry, concrete, gypsum plaster, stone, glass, ceramic tiles,grout) except where dust, dirt, grease or oil is present. Itusually appears on

    47、 surfaces which are wet or were previouslywet. Fungal growth may pre-exist on wood surfaces not subjectto water damage on-site. For example, wood used for buildingmaterials often becomes stained during tree growth or milling6.3.2 Fungal growth may be detected by simple visualinspection. Fungal growt

    48、h may appear as raised, powderydeposits, rings or colored spots which may be black, gray,white, green, red, resembling cotton, velvet, leather, or powder.When rubbed, dried fungal growth tends to spread or smear asa powder.6.3.3 Discoloration is not necessarily fungal growth. Thefollowing surface ma

    49、rkings should not be categorized assuspect fungal growth: yellow/brown water stains, scuffs, soot,dye, dust, ghosting (dust deposits form an outline on a coolsurface), efflorescence, adhesives, and other residues ofoccupancy, maintenance, or construction.6.3.4 Visual detection of fungal growth is not always defini-tive. Where the origin of discoloration or staining is not clearlyfungal or non-fungal to the investigator, the discolorationshould be considered suspect fungal growth. In some cases, anambiguous appearance may be resolved by comparing thesuspect
