When the analysis included buildings with only PVC as the flooring material in the child's bedroom, the association became somewhat stronger (by t-test: BBzP, p = 0.012; DEHP, p = 0.062).
The combination of water leakage and PVC as flooring material was also shown to be associated with a higher prevalence of airway, nasal, and dermal symptoms in exposed children (Bornehag et al. 2005b).
Furthermore, the frequency of PVC as flooring material was lower in single-family houses than in multifamily houses (51.6 vs. 71.8%).
Of the 26 homes with vinyl on walls in the child's bedroom, 12 had PVC as flooring material in the same room.
In the first phase of the Swedish DBH (Dampness in Buildings and Health) study it was found that PVC as flooring material in combination with moisture problems in the floors was associated with asthma among children 1 6 years of age (Bornehag et al. 2005b).
Formaldehyde emissions were measured with the Japanese industrial standard desiccator (JIS A 1460) method for particleboard (PB) and medium density fiberboard (MDF) as furniture materials, 8 mm laminate flooring, and engineered flooring as flooring materials.
Does it therefore have to have a good anti-slip properties? 4. Will it be sited in sun or shade, or both? 5. Will it be used as a flooring or vertical (walling, fencing) material?
Most other swifts nest either inside a crevice or hole (such as in the ground, in a tree, or between rocks), where they build a shallow cup of feathers and plant material as a flooring, or inside hollow trees, caves, or such man-made structures as buildings, wells, and tunnels.
Stone tiles used as flooring materials in buildings are subject to three-body abrasion wear due to pedestrian traffic.
