It discusses the assessment of ground gas for Part II A sites and also includes information 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. 606 $aLandfill gases 606 $aWaste gases 615 0$aLandfill gases. 615 0$aWaste gases. 676 $a628.53 700 $aWilson$b Steve$c(Civil engineer)$01857620 701 $aCard$b Geoff$01798835 701 $aHaines$b Sarah$01798836 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956160303321 996 $aGround gas handbook$94458547 997 $aUNINA
