Do interface resistances matter in historic masonries? Analysis based on X-ray tomography and heat, air and moisture modelling- [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
For hygrothermal simulations it is often advised to homogenize masonry wall constructions into a 1D solid brick construction. This saves computational time, but it may lead to an underestimation of moisture related risks.

Comparison of embodied energy and carbon dioxide emissions of brick and concrete based on functional units [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Building materials have different consumption patterns of energy and emissions of carbon dioxide during their production. These differences result from the treatment of the raw materials and the techniques applied to production.
