Thermal Insulation and Moisture: Two Major Challenges for Concrete and Brick Buildings
In many buildings, an underperforming building envelope causes a double discomfort: too much heat in summer and too much heat loss in winter, sometimes compounded by façade damage caused by moisture. In Europe and North Africa alike, much of the building stock relies on concrete, brick or masonry block structures. These materials are strong, durable and

The RSI/R Value Isn’t Everything
1. RSI in Canada and Quebec: A Mandatory but Incomplete Reference In Quebec and Canada, thermal resistance RSI—or its imperial equivalent, the R-value—remains the standard regulatory indicator. It is used in the Quebec Building Code, the CNÉB 2020, and programs such as Novoclimat and Rénoclimat. However, RSI primarily measures conduction, i.e., the transfer of heat through
