The living conditions must be as comfortable as possible for a person. The appearance of molds in living quarters also prevents comfortable living conditions. Besides causing material damage, molds are also responsible for various respiratory and allergic diseases.
As part of the diploma thesis, an actual example illustrates how the appearance of mold influences the design of the assembly sets, the proper ventilation, and heating of the rooms.
In the thesis, there is the discussion about the appearance of molds in an actual single-family house, where molds represent a serious problem. In this house, thoroughly described with layouts, cross sections, and construction assemblies, we made measurements, and we presented and interpreted them. While measuring, we used devices for air temperature, relative air humidity, and the surface temperature of structural assemblies. Besides the results of the measurements in the analysis of the causes of mold formation, we also used a computer program for the calculation of water vapor diffusion – PIDVP.
The emphasis is given to a detailed examination of the particular house and on the search for the causes of the appearance of the mold. With the help of the obtained results, there are some written proposals for the rehabilitation and prevention of the recurrence of the mold at the end.
