Structural physics planning and measuringLaajuus (5 cr)

Code: PR00DW79

Credits

5 op

Teaching language

  • Finnish

Responsible person

  • Petteri Härkönen

Objective

You know building physics measurement methods and learn to use research equipment and meters.
You can deepen your understanding of building physics theories through practical measurement tasks and result analysis.
You can apply building physics theories to moisture-related issues, especially in exploring structural solutions (airtightness, breathable structures).

Content

How are studies conducted in real-world settings?
How do structures function from a building physics perspective?
How is the building physics performance of structures determined?
