Abstract | This report is prepared for the Institute for Research in Construction (IRC) at the National Research Council (NRC) of Canada. The report summaries existing theoretical and experimental methods for evaluating damage of construction materials and building envelopes. The report also identifies areas where research is needed, especially in determining buiIdings' durability and in evaluating damage of the different construction materials. The review of the current literature suggests that there is inadequate information about durabiIity of materials and structures. The causes of building envelopes damage are identified as both technical and functional. |
