Abstract

The aim of research was to determine the air permeability of the renovation plasters, using Torrent's method. The scope of this research included three renovation plaster systems. Each of them was applied on experimental, masonry element and had a different rendering coat. Permeability measurements were performed after 28 days of curing in a natural state. In order to calculate the coefficient of air permeability (kT), the partial data was registered during the measurements. The test results indicate the possibility of determination the coefficient of air permeability kT in relation to the renovation plasters. At the same time results confirm the high porosity of the renovation plasters.
