Oxygen in the air can also cause corrosion damage. Rain from the outside and relatively high humidity can act on windows and connection joints. 7.1.1 Rain water The protection against rain water has to be provided at the exterior of the building to avoid the penetration of rain water into the interior and the connection joints. Water pene- trates into the building wall and the connection joints has to be drained away and water which gets into the functional ar- eas also has to be drained to the outside. Attention: Fair-faced concrete usually doesn’t leak water. This is achieved best with a multistage sealing (see fig. 27). 7.1.2 Humidity in the interior Whereas old buildings usually have enough openings and leakage paths, through which humidity could get out of the building, todays “sealed” buildings are governed by the new legal requirements of the heat and sound insulation. This means for the inside separation of room air conditions and the external climate: ■ The system must be completely leakproof without any gaps via window – connection joints – room wall. ■ Its temperature has to be higher than the dew point temperature of the inside. ■ It has to be air tight. WITHIN THE QKE · WWW.GKFP.DE Construction basics For the humidity budget in the inside it is necessary to con- sider not only the water vapour released from cooking and bathing but also the water evaporated from the inhabitants. Under normal circumstances a familiy of four “evaporates” about 12 up to 14 litres water every day. This humidity must be dissipated by controlled ventilation. A too high air humidity level in the inside of buildings is not only the reason for damage to the building if it condenses on cold walls. It also interferes with the interior room air conditions. The relationship between the humidity of the room air and the room temperature with the comfort is shown in the temperature-humidity field of Leusden and Freymark (fig. 34). Besides the room temperature and the relative air humidity, the surface temperature (which shall lie between 20°C - 25°C) of the surfaces and the inlet of cool fresh air is also decisive for comfort.

Chapter 7 52 Construction basics 7.1.2.1 Air humidity The ability of air to absorb water is limited and depends on the air temperature. If the maximum absorption level, the saturation level, is exceeded, then water vapour condenses. Example: Vapour vapour pressure pressure (Pa) (Pa) 4000 3500 3000 2500 2000 1500 1000 500 0 ri Ri (ti, j, j i) 1 20°C 20°C / 50 50% % 1,300 kg/m Room air conditions Ri = 20°C, relative air humidity 50%, Existent vapour pressure: 1169 Pa, Saturation vapour pressure: 2338 Pa, Dew point temperature of diagram: Dew = 9,25°C. Warm air can absorb more water than cold air. At 100% relative humidity, the dew point is attained. If moist warm air cools down and the relative air humidity increases to the dew point as a result then the water vapour condenses. -20 -20 -10 -10 ±0 +10 +20 +20 +30 temperature Temperature (°C) (°C) RAL-GÜTEGEMEINSCHAFT KUNSTSTOFF-FENSTERSYSTEME 1,250 kg/m 1169 1169 8,63 8,63g/m g/m 1,200 kg/m 2338 2338 17,8 17,8g/m g/m 9,25 Fig. 35: Dew point curve 1 100 % 50%
