The internal structures and the hygroscopicity of bio-based boards consisting of giant
reed (Arundo donax L.) and hazelnut shells as bio-aggregates, and a sodium silicate solution as
the adhesive, were investigated. The ...
The search for innovative and sustainable solutions to improve the energy efficiency
of the construction industry has been a hot topic for researchers due to the tremendous impact
of insulator materials in the thermal ...
The introduction of stored product insect pests to new areas is facilitated by food trade among countries, and effective detection and monitoring programs are crucial for food security. The khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium ...
Arundo donax (giant reed or giant cane) is a widely available, perennial, invasive, non-food crop, present worldwide and employed for several uses, including building practices. Considering the increasing demand for ...
This study evaluated the durability of three innovative multilayer insulation systems incorporating thermal mortars with EPS aggregates and silica aerogel granules after hygrothermal accelerated aging and one year of natural ...
ETICS are multilayer building solutions applied to the building external walls to provide an
improved thermal performance to the building envelope. However, several questions have been
raised concerning the durability ...

The European Union has been progressively introducing sustainable environmental policies which aim to improve the energy performance of new and existing buildings towards a climate-neutral building stock by 2050. As a ...
The impact of Tribolium castaneum on the quality and technological suitability of bread-making wheat flour was evaluated. The aim of this study is to investigate whether insect-infested flours can be used, after pest ...
Insulation materials are fundamental for decreasing energy losses and guaranteeing thermal and acoustic comfort in buildings, which may significantly contribute to decreasing the energy consumption related with poor thermal ...
In the case of interventions in existing buildings, the assessment of timber elements and joints, such as the Single Step Joint, is a challenge for engineers, especially when timber presents signs of biological degradation. ...

Subterranean termites, despite their essential role as decomposers on natural ecosystems, are
voracious pests of wood in service, and may cause damage to wood in buildings and economic
losses associated with treatments ...

The identification of the main degradation agents and knowledge of the degradation mechanisms and long-term performance of ETICSs are of fundamental importance for the sustainable and efficient use of these systems. This ...
Traditional carpentry joints can be found worldwide in many timber truss structures connecting
rafter and tie beam. One failure mode of this connection result from shear in the tie beam beyond the notch either due to bad ...
