Moisture and Bio-Deterioration Risk of Building Materials and Structures
During the service life of buildings, natural aging and eventual damage of materials due to different chemical, physical, and biological processes can take place. Ageing of the materials is one aspect of the environmental processes and involve different chemical, mechanical and biological reactions of the materials. Bio-deterioration, e.g. mould, decay and insect damage in buildings, is caused ...
متن کاملAssessment of radiological hazards of travertine rocks as building materials
Introduction: Although travertine is now widely used as a building material, the effects of its radiological hazards to public health should be a matter of concern. Therefore, this study aimed to determine its radiological parameters with regard to human health. Material and Methods: In this research 10 travertine samples were collected ...
متن کاملEstimating radiation dose from building materials
Background: Natural radioactivity in materials under certain conditions can reach the hazardous radiological levels. So, it becomes necessary to study the natural radioactivity in different materials to assess the dose for the population in order to know the health risks and to have a baseline for future changes in the environmental radioactivity due to human activities. Materials and ...
متن کاملEfficiency of Different Basic Modelling Approaches to Simulate Moisture Buffering in Building Materials
The aim of this study is the numerical investigation of the capacity of porous hygroscopic building materials to damp indoor humidity variations due to external environmental loads and internal sources due to heat and moisture exchange. By means of numerical simulation, building material moisture content is computed by using a basic approach based on a diffusion model. Subsequently, a model inc...
متن کاملInspecting localized moisture in building materials by applying optical and microwave heating
Both theoretical and experimental results on evaluating hidden water in building materials are reported to compare features of optical and microwave heating. Experiments have been performed on a 2 cm-thick reference sample made of gypsum pasteboard which contained voids filled with foamed polyurethane. The obtained results are compared to illustrate that advantages of microwave moisture detecti...
