Default Re: Asbestos in DAC90

A distant relative of mine used to live in a bungalow made of asbestos sheeting. This was quite a common building material in the 1920s. When it was demolished about 15 years ago, the demolition men smashed it up with sledghammers and dumped it in a big skip. I remember feeling at the time that this wasn't exactly best practice when handling asbestos, even white asbestos. It certainly puts the anguish over DAC90 heatshields into perspective though.

Best regards, Paul
