This study presents a state-of-the-art review of the evolution of probabilistic hygrothermal
assessments of building envelopes. First, relevant literature was identified by employing a …

Assessing the efficacy of aircraft and technologies is a crucial step in the aeronautic product
development. Due to their prospective nature, such analyses are subject to various …

Previous studies have shown that the effects of climate change on building structures will
increase the mould growth risk of the wood-frame building envelope in many circumstances …

Among earthen construction techniques, cob might be an interesting solution to mitigate
greenhouse gases emissions and energy consumption of the building industry. One main …

This paper takes place in improving the energy performance assessment of cob buildings,
by evaluating the variability of its hygrothermal properties at the material scale, related to the …

To determine the water vapour permeability of porous building materials, the wet cup and
dry cup tests are frequently performed. Those tests have shown to present high discrepancy …

Lehmmauerwerk bietet sich auf Grund einer Vielzahl ökologischer und bauphysikalischer
Vorteile zur Errichtung klimafreundlicher und ressourcenschonender Gebäude an. Für den …

The thermal renovation of rammed earth constructions presents a challenge in the current
evolution towards energy efficient buildings. To preserve the character of the building …

Researches on earthen materials have increased over the last few decades. While a lot
researches focus on measuring the hygrothermal properties at material scale, few studies …
