External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems: Critical Parameters for Surface Hygrothermal Behaviour
External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) are often used in Europe. Despite its thermal advantages, low cost, and ease of application, this system has serious problems of biological growth causing the cladding defacement. Recent studies pointed that biological growth is due to high value...
