Hygric Properties

In the paper is presented calculation of hygric properties of hollow brick block. Namely it is adsorption isotherm, water vapour diffusion resistance factor and moisture diffusivity. The brick block cavities was filled only by air. In first step the properties of brick body were measured. Then the properties of the whole brick block were calculated by using homogenisation techniques.
