Air tightness of 12 non-residential large buildings results from field measurement studies.

Summary

The authors investigate the airtightness of 12 French non-residential buildings, by means of experimental fan depressurization tests. For this study, 12 recent large (volume > 500 m3) buildings were chosen according to the construction structure and the activity. The infiltration air exchange contributions according to the types of constructions were analysed, and the results were compared with the requirements applicable in France since June 2001 by virtue of the Thermal Regulation 2000.
