Library
The ABIS library is a collection of useful reference material relating to buildings and their problems as well as timber pests such as termites.
The library is a combination of material written by ABIS as a result of our own research and practical experience together with useful information gleaned from other authoritative sources.
Sarking
Sarking is a strong, moisture proof, reflective, metallic building paper that is usually concealed within, or is laid next to, a wall or roof frame which is placed over the rafters but underneath the roof batons. The sarking runs to the roof gutter and the reflective side should always face outwards to repel heat. Reflective foil sarking is used to reflect heat and stop condensation forming on the underside of a roof.
