ALTERNATIVE METHOD DETERMINING OF AIR-PERMEABILITY OF ENCLOSING CONSTRUCTIONS IN BUILDINGS
During energy survey for compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements of buildings, being put into operation, it is required to estimate air-permeability of enclosing structures. Applicable methods contain certain procedures, which make test performance more complicated and more expensive. The work presented here provides the alternate methods for air-permeability resistance estimation for specific types of buildings enclosing structures. To implement the methods it is required to perform standard tests in such number of building rooms, which correspond to the number of main types of enclosing structures used during construction. Measurements results obtained allow drawing up the certain equation system, which may be simply and explicitly solved. Use of proposed methods will allow reducing labor costs and material resources consumption at estimation of building enclosing structures compliance with the regulatory requirements.
