  • 1. Ghent Rijksuniversiteit (Belgium)

Description

As part of a general survey on building materials in Belgium, the exhalation and diffusion coefficient of concrete blocks of known composition were determined. The diffusive transport was examined by means of two laboratory methods, for a series of samples of different thickness. The results are compared and commented upon. (author)
