  • Performance of windows and façade elements made of thermally modified Norway spruce (Picea abies) in different climatic conditions
    Ugovšek, Aleš ...
    Thermally modified wood is getting increasingly popular material for different applications in buildings. Windows and façade elements made of thermally modified Norway spruce and non-modified Norway ... spruce were installed in test objects which were exposed at five locations in Europe (Slovenia, Germany, Sweden, and Spain). Results showed that elements and windows made of thermally modified spruce has considerably lower wood moisture content compared to ones made of non-modified spruce and that wax positively influences on it. Insulation of windows made of thermally modified spruce was higher compared to windows made of non-modified spruce. Colour changes of thermally modified spruce were quicker compared to non-modified spruce but were successfully slowed down with an addition of pigment in wax.
