Building diagnostics requires a varied comprehensive knowledge not only of building practices, but of building systems such as heating, ventilation and air conditioning, electrical, plumbing and waste disposal, long term maintenance, the ailments that beset buildings due to poor design, construction, living habits of the occupants, and many other things that are not part of the expertise of any single building profession.
