The text describes the Architects' Small House Service Bureau guidance on cost effective home design. It emphasizes minimizing waste, efficient layout, and affordable materials, noting higher costs from expensive equipment but outlining how to trim the price while maintaining function.
The article explains efflorescence caused by rainwater seeping into masonry through windows sills roof copings and walls. Water dissolves soluble salts which surface as white crystals after evaporation. Exposure to air causes salts to absorb carbon dioxide and form carbonates, making them largely insoluble and not wash away in the next rain.
An article explains efflorescence arises mainly from moisture and exposure rather than mortar composition. Remedies include brushing off existing deposits, acid washes with muriatic acid and water, and rinsing. Preventive steps emphasize eliminating water absorption via colorless waterproofing and proper wall design, gutters, downspouts, and drips.
