Overview: This is one of three very well-executed case studies performed under the aegis of professors Don Dougald and Michael Bednar at the University of Virginia.

This study focuses on humidity and the potential for condensation on and within walls in the pool area of the recently completed Fitness and Aquatics Center at UVA. The intent of this investigation was to examine the interrelated performance of the mechanical system air supply and building envelope materials in preventing moisture problems.


Background: Professors Dougald and Bednar received a $5000 Vital Signs teaching support grant during the spring term of 1998 that helped support this investigation.
