Description of BS 5250:2021 2021This British Standard gives recommendations for the management of moisture in buildings using an integrated and pragmatic approach. This includes the management of moisture risk from interstitial and surface condensation, from too high or too low internal relative humidity, and from rain penetration or high levels of ground water. It covers all states of water as gas, liquid and solid, and the interactions between these states. It describes the principal sources of moisture in buildings, its transportation and deposition and provides recommendations and guidance on how to manage those risks during the assessment, design, construction and operation of buildings. This British Standard does not cover measures specifically dealing with flooding and escape of water. These are dealt with in BS 85500. This British Standard is intended for use by designers, builders and users of any class of building. This standard gives guidance on risks of all sorts from high moisture levels, whether in the building fabric or in indoor air, which can endanger the health and well‑being of building occupants and the integrity of the building fabric. This British Standard is relevant to buildings of all types, whatever their form, construction and occupancy, both new and existing, and both domestic and non-domestic, except for buildings used for storage at sub-zero temperatures.
