Hygrothermal Criteria for Design of Cross-Laminated Timber External Walls
There is no clear indication of critical moisture conditions for cross-laminated timber (CLT) envelopes exist regarding moisture content. Therefore, our main objective in this study was to set hygrothermal criteria for the design of CLT external walls in terms of moisture conditions. The focus is on five different types of CLT external walls that differ in their dry-out. The key factors in the safe hygrothermal design of the CLT external wall are sufficient dry-out capacity and control of the CLT moisture content during the construction phase.
