on the assessment of vapours. It provides information on gas generation
and the analysis of gas flows in the ground, including the design of gas
protection systems. It explains how to use the most recent assessment
methods published by CIRICA, NHBC and BSI and highlights the differences
between the various methods. It includes advice and recommendations
about the validation and testing of protection systems as they are
installed. Worked examples help explain the concepts and calculations.
