Glossary
- Asbestos (amiante)
- A naturally occurring fibrous mineral once used in building materials; in France its presence in buildings triggers specific diagnostic and removal rules.
- Asbestos survey (repérage amiante)
- A regulated inspection of building materials and spaces to identify asbestos before renovation, demolition or maintenance work.
- Friable asbestos
- Asbestos-containing material that can be crumbled or reduced to powder by hand pressure, creating a higher risk of fibre release.
- Containment zone
- A sealed work area with controlled entry and exit, used to prevent asbestos fibres from spreading during removal.
- Decontamination unit
- A connected shower and changing facility for workers leaving an asbestos work zone, designed to prevent fibre transfer.
- Negative pressure
- Air pressure kept lower inside a containment zone than outside, so air flows inward and filtered exhaust helps protect adjacent spaces.
- Encapsulation
- A remediation method that seals asbestos-containing material with a coating or enclosure instead of removing it, where regulations allow.
- Air monitoring
- Sampling and laboratory analysis of airborne fibre concentrations during and after asbestos work to check containment performance.
- Waste traceability (BSD)
- The French tracking system for hazardous waste, including asbestos waste, documenting producer, carrier, destination and treatment.
- Asbestos removal certification
- Qualification required for firms carrying out asbestos removal or containment work in France; buyers should check credentials before contracting.
