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.

 

Weephole

Weepholes are small openings located near the base of the outer wall of brick veneer or masonry construction for ventilation and drainage purposes. Raising the grade above weepholes may allow moisture, snakes, insects such as termites, and small animals to enter the building. Modern weepholes employ screens, constructed of flexible nylon or plastics to prevent this.
