Project Abstract

The objective of Retrofit of TradFabs is to provide knowledge and increased certainty around the appropriate thermal upgrading of solid masonry walls and traditional windows and doors. Building on previous work in the FabTrads project, this proposed research will test and analyse pre-and post-retrofit solid masonry walls to characterise the complex hygrothermal performance of the wall as a whole, thereby going beyond the characterisation of walls by individual materials.
