Genom experimentella mätningar har vi tagit fram grafer för luftflöden och förlustfaktorer i spalt mellan vind- och regnskydd i putsade tvåstegstätade fasader. Detta är av betydelse för att veta att inträngande fukt kan torka ut så att konstruktionen inte tar skada. Mätningar gäller för konstruktioner med spaltbildande läkt från Lindab och Europrofil samt även för fallet med helt tom spalt. ResultBy experimental measurements we have developed charts for air flows in the space between the wind- and rain cover in parget two-step sealed facade. This is a presumption to give penetrating moisture a possibility to dry-out and the construction not to take damage. All measurements are based on structures with ventilated air space with profiles from Lindab and Europrofile. The results are then comp
