Deterioration of building material at old shop building

Concrete is the main construction material in the Malaysia. In the past 40 years almost all buildings had a concrete skeleton with in-fill brick walls while timber has been widely used in many historic buildings in Malaysia. It can deteriorate easily if it is exposed to water penetration, high moist...
