Reabilitação de fachadas. O isolamento acústico como factor contributivo.
Patrício, J.; Domingues, M.No contexto da reabilitação da envolvente dos edifícios, nomeadamente em fachadas de edifícios habitacionais, é normalmente considerada a aplicação de sistemas de isolamento térmico pelo exterior (ETICS) e a substituição das janelas existentes por caixilharia de vidro duplo com menor permeabilidade ao ar. Estas opções centram-se fundamentalmente na verificação de exigências de natureza térmica e de redução de u...
