... A method for the estimation of the durability of both steep and low sloped roofing systems is presented. The “thermal load” concept is defined. Each estimate is based on the thermal load at the exposure site, the presence of significant design, workmanship, and materials defects, and the generic...

... the recirculation of ventilation air, with different thermal loads and with several door positions. For comparison, some simulations were repeated in isothermal conditions. The results showed that a high thermal load increased the spread of contaminant. Recirculation of the ventilation air had a deteriorative...
