The impact of reduced air pressure on hygric properties of porous building materials in high-altitude areas was investigated. Results showed limited influences on sorption isotherm, moisture retention curve, capillary absorption coefficient and capillary moisture content, while the vapor permeability increased significantly.
Hygrothermal properties of porous building materials are indispensable for understanding and optimizing the hygrothermal performance of building enclosures and the built environment. In high-altitude areas, the influence of reduced air pressure on hygrothermal properties should be considered and, if needed, proper corrections should be adopted. Currently, the impact of reduced air pressure on thermal properties has been thoroughly investigated while that on hygric properties remains unclear. In this research, hygric properties of three repre-sentative porous building materials - calcium silicate, autoclaved aerated concrete and ceramic brick - are measured at three different air pressures, namely 1.00, 0.80 and 0.60 atm. The static gravimetric test, psy-chrometer test, cup test and capillary absorption test are performed to obtain the sorption isotherm, moisture retention curve, vapor permeability, capillary absorption coefficient and capillary moisture content. Results show that the influences of air pressure on the sorption isotherm, moisture retention curve, capillary absorption coefficient and capillary moisture content are limited, while the vapor permeability increases obviously with the decreasing air pressure. Specifically, the vapor diffusion resistance factor remains stable in the dry cup test, and this can be predicted by Schirmer's law. In the intermediate cup and wet cup tests, where liquid water con-tributes to the moisture transfer, the impact from air pressure becomes smaller.
