Preservation Brief 39: Holding the Line: Controlling Unwanted Moisture in Historic Buildings
AIA Continuing Education System Quiz
The following quiz assesses understanding of the information contained in the U.S. National Park Service's Preservation Brief on moisture control in historic buildings. The Brief, authored by Sharon Park, is part of an ongoing series that provides guidance on preserving, rehabilitating, and restoring historic buildings.
The fifty Preservation Briefs cover a wide range of topics; many contain information relevant to non-historic as well as historic buildings. They are a valuable resource for architects and other professionals working in preservation, as well as the renovation, repair, and maintenance of non-historic buildings. The quiz is a collaborative project of the AIA Historic Resources Committee and HPEF.
The brief is available on the National Park Service website. Print copies can be purchased for a nominal fee from the U.S. Government Printing Office.
