Improving hygrothermal properties of clay [PDF]
, 2015 The requirement to reduce operational energy use in the built environment has driven a rise in the level of building envelope airtightness. An unintentional consequence of this can be a reduction in the indoor environment quality with respect to hygrothermal comfort.
