The diffusion resistance of the insulation layer and the often-needed moisture barrier on the internal side will reduce drying toward the internal air drastically. Open connected capillary pores enable the intrusion of moisture gases and other particles into the building material and lead to the ...

Vinyl siding & other applications & requirements for house wrap: The requirement for water or rain barrier on building walls: this article discusses of the need for external vapor barriers beneath vinyl, siding - building code requirements, interpretation, and home inspection concerns. Discussed here...
The phenomenon is nevertheless complicated, because diffusion of moisture through the void structure, and bound water diffusion through the cell walls, occurs simultaneously (Kolmann and Côté 1968). As in wood, the water contained in cement paste and concrete can be classified into types ...
In contrast, cementitious and polymer-based elements (e.g., aerated concrete, cellular concrete, polyester wool, glass wool) are classified as “Medium Resistant” and “Resistant” [48]. Therefore, the moisture performance results for both cool and black roofs primarily focus on MC and ...
For example, some samples were required to be sealed with two coats of vapor barrier at two end sides and at the top before placing them in the immersion tank [7]. The immersion depth [8–10], the local temperature of the water surrounding the test sample and the temperature of the ...
