Wood-decaying fungi in buildings

Abstract:

The aim of this bachelor thesis is to characterize wood-decay fungi in buildings, on which they have a negative impact. This thesis describes the main species of wood-decay fungi, that are found in our area. The most common are Serpula lacrymans, Fibropoira vaillantii and Coniophora puteana. They could be divided into two groups - fungi that decay wood cellulose or lignin. If the right conditions for the particular species of fungi are reached, the building could be attacked. Wood attacked by fungi changes its colour, structure and mechanical properties. During the elimination of wood-decay fungi is important to reduce humidity, dry up the substrate, mechanically remove the fungi and use some fungicide to protect the wood.
