STP 1495 Heat-Air-Moisture Transport: Measurements on Building Materials

Author: P. Mukhopadhyaya | Size: 3.5 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: ASTM | Year: 2007 | pages: 130 | ISBN: 978-0-8031-3422-5

Eleven peer-reviewed papers provide the latest research and standards development activities to assure the reliable, consistent, and meaningful measurement of heat-air-moisture transport through building materials.
Topics cover the importance and necessity of reliably measured hygrothermal material properties and the individual material properties. Some papers identify the need for improvement in existing standards and others point towards new measurement techniques and corresponding standards.
