Efflorescence: Causes and Cures

Architect Training Course
Efflorescence is a nuisance and an unsightly part of working with masonry.  If you have ever noticed a white powdery substance covering all or part of a brick building, you have most likely seen efflorescence.  Efflorescence does not magically appear.  It is caused by a number of specific factors, most of which can be controlled through good and consistent construction practices.

In this 1-hour interactive online course,  we discuss how efflorescence is formed and the steps you can take to prevent it.  In addition, we talk about the most effective methods for removing efflorescence from existing masonry.
"

After participating in this course, you will be able to: 

  • Identify the three main causes of efflorescence on masonry
  • List the different types of efflorescence
  • Describe ways to prevent and control efflorescence
  • Discuss the proper and improper methods for removing efflorescence
