  2. 1. Concrete slab on the ground and moisture control : verification of some methods to improve the moisture conditions in the foundation

    Author : Lars-Erik Harderup; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Concrete slab; moisture; repair methods; ventilated foundation; drainage; numerical methods; grunder; grundplattor; platta på mark; betongplattor; fuktskador; reparationsmetoder; dränering; ventilerade konstruktioner; fukt; fukttransport; relativ fuktighet; temperatur; luftflöden; beräkningsmodeller; teori; fältundersökningar; mätresultat;

    Abstract : This work deals with different types of repair methods for concrete slab on the ground damaged by moisture. Many of the available methods involve some kind of mechanical ventilation of the foundation. The basic principle for all these systems is the same. READ MORE

  4. 2. Moisture Safety in Wood Frame Buildings - Blind evaluation of the hygrothermal calculation tool WUFI using field measurements and determination of factors affecting the moisture safety

    Author : Solof Mundt Petersen; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Blind Validation; Moisture Safety; Hygrothermal Calcualtion Tool WUFI; Wood Frame Buildings;

    Abstract : Due to increased awareness of climate change and higher energy costs, well-insulated buildings have become more common. Furthermore, interest in the use of wood in building to produce more carbon dioxide-efficient buildings has increased. READ MORE

  5. 3. Indoor Environmental Factors and its Associations with Asthma and Allergy Among Swedish Pre-School Children

    Author : Linda Hägerhed Engman; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; epidemiology; Public health; children; validation; inspections; dampness; moisture problem; questionnaire; allergy; asthma; Folkhälsa; epidemiologi; health;

    Abstract : It has been shown in a large number of scientific studies that living or working in a building with mould and moisture damage increases the risk for asthmatic and allergic symptoms. However, there is a need to establish more valid methods to obtain a more nuanced picture of the wide range of different types of moisture related problems. READ MORE

  6. 4. Heated air gaps : a possibility to dry out dampness from building constructions

    Author : Tord af Klintberg; Folke Björk; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Water damage; convection; air gap; building; construction; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : The air gap method is a modification of the common way of building indoor walls and floors. The aim of the method is to make a construction, less fragile to water damage, with air gaps where moisture can be removed with a thermally driven air flow, caused by a heating cable. The thesis includes a number of experimental studies of this method. READ MORE

  7. 5. Building Physics Tools: Needs, Use and the Lack of Use in the Building Process. Modelling Non-Isothermal Moisture Flow and Frost Penetration

    Author : Stephen Burke; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; isothermal; costs; building physics tools; moisture damages; learning loop; experience; causal loop diagrams; non-isothermal; moisture transport;

    Abstract : Despite advances in material science, computers and building technology, building failures related to building physics continue to occur. These failures range from a building not meeting its energy use target to a building causing people to become ill from exposure to various chemicals or biological organisms. READ MORE
