Abstract A low energy house with an air-circulation system in brick walls has been developed. However, a moisture problem for durability of wall assembly has not been considered so far. Since moisture capacity... of brick is large, it is difficult for the brick wall to dry quickly. In this paper, four different types of wall structure are calculated with computer software "HAM Computer Software" using water potential. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between the wall structure and the moisture problem in the wall. It is also considered how effective the air-circulation system is.show more
