The Journal of Building Physics focuses on the hygrothermal performance of building materials and components, including insulation, facades, and roofing systems. It investigates heat, air, and moisture transfer phenomena, their impact on building energy demand, indoor environmental quality, and occupant comfort. The journal also explores sustainable building materials, advanced simulation techniques, and the performance of buildings under various climatic conditions and in relation to conservation efforts.
