With an increasing height of timber buildings, the challenge is growing to provide moisture-safe conditions for the expected lifetime of building envelopes.

Additionally, large-scale buildings require longer times of construction in which the structural elements are especially exposed to moisture. Last but not least inspection, maintenance and repair possibilities are limited in high rise structures. Com...     »
