The main benefit of the book is that it explores available methodologies
for both conducting in-situ measurements and adequately exploring the
results, based on a case study that illustrates the benefits and
difficulties of concurrent methodologies.
The case study corresponds to a set of 25 social housing dwellings where
an extensive in situ measurement campaign was conducted. The dwellings
are located in the same quarter of a city. Measurements included indoor
temperature and relative humidity, with continuous log in different
rooms of each dwelling, blower-door tests and complete outdoor
conditions provided by a nearby weather station.
The book includes a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines,
such as building physics, probability and statistics and civil
engineering. It presents a synthesis of the current state of knowledge
for benefit of professional engineers and scientists.
