Issues in the investigation and reporting of housing subsidence: The problem of inaccurate diagnosis, which can often be traced to inadequacies in the procedures adopted, is examined in detail

Anumba, C J (1996) Issues in the investigation and reporting of housing subsidence: The problem of inaccurate diagnosis, which can often be traced to inadequacies in the procedures adopted, is examined in detail. Building Research & Information, 24(3), pp. 170-175. ISSN 0961-3218

Abstract

The investigation of buildings subject to subsidence damage is fraught with difficulties which can lead to erroneous diagnoses. The author's systematic approach to discussing the likely points of confusion will hopefully limit the number of errors that have been prevalent in such investigations in recent years.
