Monitoring of drying kinetics evolution and hygrothermal properties of new earth-based materials using climatic chamber simulation

This study focuses on the drying kinetics of cob and light-earth layers comprising a hybrid walling system. Volumetric water content sensors are immersed and placed at different positions on the walls of a building to measure the drying kinetics. In addition, an experimental analysis of the effect o...
