Dilapidation
Dilapidation is a term meaning a destructive event to a building, but more particularly used in the plural in English law for
- the waste committed by the incumbent of an ecclesiastical living
- the disrepair for which a tenant is usually liable when he has agreed to give up his premises in good repair.
Dilapidation is derived from the Latin for scattering the stones (lapides) of a building.
