The project in five facts.
Challenge, approach and results.
Excessive moisture in materials and structures and the consequent altered thermal conductivity is one of those building physics problems that can noticeably affect operating and maintenance costs, quality of living and, last but not least, the durability and value of the property. Remediation of moisture problems is as a rule associated with high costs and complex technical interventions. Prevention of excessive moisture in materials and structures is therefore one of the key measures by which we ensure the durability and functionality of the building and its constituent parts throughout its entire service life. Through professionally correct construction, use and maintenance of the building, we wish to reduce the risk of excessive moisture to the smallest possible extent, but if problems nevertheless occur, rapid, effective and appropriate measures are needed to eliminate the causes and remediate the consequences.

Through professionally correct construction, use and maintenance of the building, we wish to reduce the risk of excessive moisture to the smallest possible extent, but if problems nevertheless occur, rapid, effective and appropriate measures are needed to eliminate the causes and remediate the consequences. The author presented the causes of excessive moisture in buildings in the diploma thesis and specified appropriate measures.

Your diploma project for a real company.
A diploma thesis at Academia solves a challenge from a company – often the one where you do your 800 hours of placement. Read about the Gradbeništvo module or book a consultation.
