Sintered bricks, common porous building materials in architectural heritage, necessitates an accurate understanding of moisture diffusivity for effective transfer analysis. Using the “ruler method” proposed by Evangelides et al., based on pure water capillary absorption experiments, we determined ( D l ) Chinese sintered blue brick containing sodium chloride (NaCl) crystals. Before samples were immersed 0%, 1%, 5%, and 10% NaCl solutions dried to contain salt Subsequently, values measured...
A suitable hygrothermal environment is imperative for sustainably conserving movable and immovable cultural heritage. This paper proposes a combined method quantitatively assessing water-related deterioration risks in heritage buildings, validated employing the Forbidden City China, UNESCO World Heritage site. The approach emphasizes combining coupled transfer simulation with conventional environmental monitoring systematic risk assessments. Key findings include identifying predominant...
Two tombs of the Southern Tang Dynasty (Qinling Tomb and Shunling Tomb), most important cultural heritages in China, were built for emperors 1000 years ago decorated with murals stone sculptures. After their excavation 1950s, it was found that drastic fluctuations environment within had caused multiple diseases, such as salt efflorescence, powdering, biodeterioration, which led to irreversible damage murals. This research comprised long-term (yearly) environmental monitoring short-term...
Abstract Two groups of polyacrylate latexes with higher (21 ~ 35 °C) or lower (−33 −43 glass transition temperatures ( T g ) were prepared by adjusting the monomer ratio butyl acrylate (BA) and styrene (St), effect acrylic acid (AA) on water‐whitening resistance these latex films was investigated. It found that two different. With increase AA content, water whitening continued to improve, while increased first then decreased. A series characterizations, such as light transmittance,...
The historical, cultural, and social value of heritage buildings mandates special protection these structures. Blue brick is one kind the main construction materials buildings, which porous material easily subject to deterioration due environmental factors such as humidity. Therefore, determining dynamic moisture content rule under fluctuant ambient humidity necessary for preventative conservation. This study measured equilibrium eight types Chinese blue bricks isothermal conditions with...
Grey brick is a key material in Chinese traditional architecture. The isothermal sorption curve of grey bricks one the basic moisture characteristics for studying heat transfer building enclosure structures and also fundamental parameter research into degradation mechanisms In this study, we measure curves Wujiang (Suzhou, China) from 1980s late Qing period, by applying constant relative humidity controlled saturated salt-water solutions under conditions. We then present their fitting...
It is a challenge for the conservation of soil ruin sites that molds grow on surface damp ruins in exhibition halls high-humidity regions. The ventilation and lighting modes directly affect mold reproduction, but studies quantitative relationship between environmental factors propagation surfaces are insufficient. Wenzhou Qiaolou was selected as an example this study, rammed earth from used experiment sample. For experimental variables, four conditions were simulated 56 days laboratory to...
Abstract Cultural heritage is directly affected by the conservation environment, and climate change already having an impact on of cultural heritage. The Mogao Caves murals, one China’s most prestigious heritages, have been extreme rainfall. aim this study was therefore to assess abnormal weather microenvironment within caves preservation murals. First, 30-year meteorological data Dunhuang area one-year cycle Cave 285’s monitoring are collated. results show that for 285, summer noteworthy...
