Five sample buildings. Twenty-four months of monitoring
Between May 2024 and May 2026, the validation protocol was applied to five sample buildings. Masonry was subjected to non-invasive dielectric measurements using a Trotec instrument, expressed in Digit, through scheduled readings at predefined points, supplemented by thermographic analysis and mapping.
Over the 24-month period, all monitored cases showed a progressive reduction in measured values. The assessment is therefore based on the overall trend of measurements over time rather than on any single reading.
THERMOGRAPHIC VERIFICATION
A comparison of the same wall shows a change in the surface temperature differential from ΔT 1.7 K, measured in May 2024, to ΔT 0.9 K, measured in November 2025.
The reduction is consistent with a more uniform surface temperature distribution.
Thermography provides complementary evidence and is not a direct measurement of the water content in the masonry.
