Air permeance of building materials / [prepared by Doru Bumbaru, Robert Jutras, Armand Patenaude].: NH18-1/367-1988E-PDF
"This CMHC project was undertaken by AIR-INS Inc. with assistance from the Institute of Research in Construction (IRC) to propose and validate a test method to determine the air permeance of building materials. Validation of test results was conducted on orifice plates and on building materials. Using the proposed test method, a total of 126 specimens from 36 building materials were tested at static pressure differentials varying from 25 to 100 Pa"--Executive summary, p. 1.
