Abstract: Exfiltration of moist indoor air during winter conditions may lead to the gradual wetting of the sheathing of wall assemblies that are not airtight. In this study, seven full-scale wood-frame wall specimens were tested to ...

Abstract: A laboratory test using a large-scale environmental chamber has been carried out on two flat roof models fully insulated with cellulose fiber. These two models represent the most representative single-cavity flat roofs, ...

Abstract: A computer model was extended and adapted to simulate the hygrothermal behavior of building envelope-wood components. The model was used to predict moisture movement in wood planks forming the decks of nonvented flat roofs ...
