Abstract:

The paper shows results from two moisture loads in a Moisture Design. The primary results concern calculations of moisture transfer of vapour diffusion, in combination with or without pelting rain, for three different locations in Sweden. The construction is an appratment wall with south and north facings. Hourly values of the бн.
