Hygrothermal performance of ventilated wooden cladding
, 2010 This PhD project contributes to more accurate design guidelines for high-performance building envelopes by analysis of hygrothermal performance of ventilated wooden cladding. Hygrothermal performance is defined by cladding temperature and moisture conditions, and subsequently by risk of degradation. Wood cladding is the most common façade material used

Hygrothermal performance of light steel-framed walls
, 2000 Hygrothermal performance of a new light-gauge steel framed building envelope system has been analyzed using 3-D thermal simulations, 2-D combined heat, air and moisture transfer simulations, laboratory testing in a calibrated and guarded hot box (ISO 8990), weather resistance tests for full-sized structures, corrosion tests and field measurements at ...

Energy retrofit of existing buildings is mainly an endeavor to reduce energy consumption. Interior insulation retrofit of masonry falls among retrofit measures in this regard. However, interior insulation of masonry may give rise to hygrothermal risks in the structure. Thus, hygrothermal analysis of solutions for such retrofit becomes paramount.

Hygrothermal performance of hempcrete for Ontario (Canada) buildings
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2017Abstract Hempcrete is a bio-aggregate based composite material used for building envelopes which typically consists of hemp shiv (hurd), lime binder and water. Hempcrete has several distinct advantages including low thermal conductivity, effective moisture buffering, and high sound absorption, while having a high carbon sequestration “index”.
