Guest guest Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 1. I have worked on a couple print shops including a case that went to trial. The VOCs and other components are not expected to cause that kind of reaction. 2. said: Dear : Another mechanism that might explain the greater damage at the base of the plaster, as opposed to the top, is if thermal stratification were happening in the area. The bottom of the column would then be cooler and have a slightly higher potential for condensation of what air contaminants might be in the air. Just a hypothesis. He's close. This is very very very likely either A) a vapor transmission issue combined with condensation and age or change in HVAC over the years; or it is rising damp (direct capillary water entry followed by salting out over time). Some simple modeling would answer the question in theory. Saltation deposits on the surface of the plaster and crystalline structure of residue on the surface (polymorph formation) would confirm.
