Papers are invited for the Symposium on Building Science and the Physics of Building Enclosure Performance, October 21, 2018, at the Washington Hilton, Washington, D.C., USA. The symposium is cosponsored by ASTM International’s Committee on Performance of Buildings (E06) and Committee on Roofing and Waterproofing (D08), and will take place in conjunction with the October standards development meetings of Committee E06.
The symposium will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas on current research regarding building science and the physics of building enclosure performance, with an emphasis on testing and assessment of heat, air, and moisture transfer, energy use, and the environment. Topics for the symposium may include but are not limited to:
To participate in the symposium, authors must submit a 250-300 word preliminary abstract no later than September 29, 2017. The abstract must include a clear definition of the objective and approach of the work discussed, pointing out material that is new, and present sufficient details regarding results. The presentation and manuscript must not be of a commercial nature nor can it have been previously published.
