External thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS) an evaluation of hygrothermal behaviour /
This book analyzes the hygrothermal behaviour of external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS), components that increase the thermal efficiency of buildings. Treating a topic that has largely been neglected, it explores the main cause of biological growth within ETICS. The results of two exp...
