RIBuild: Material properties for historic building materials and insulation materials

Abstract

This dataset consists of 1) Excel sheets with material properties for a) a collection of historic building materials and b) insulation materials suited for internal insulation. Material properties were collected from all RIBuild partner countries. The main purpose was to locate data set not included in the DELPHIN database that contained the needed data for DELPHIN simulations. 2) Excel sheets with material properties for specific historic building materials used in Italy and Switzerland. As these materials were supposed to be included in hygrothermal simulations with DELPHIN performed in RIBuild, a full material characterization was required as described in RIBuild deliverable D2.1 and in the DELPHIN specifications. Material characterization was performed at RTU. Requirements concerning input need for DELPHIN simulations are described in RIBuild deliverable D2.1. Overview of data files to be found in 'RIBuild data WP2 Mat Prop' as part of this dataset.
