Application of the factor method to the prediction of the service life of external paint finishes on façades
The main goal of this study is to predict the service life of external paint finishes and
contribute to the subject of construction elements´ durability. The service life is estimated …

Statistical Modelling of Service Life Prediction of Exterior Painted Surfaces
The degradation of building materials is a complex phenomenon, which starts as soon as
construction is concluded, evolves over time, and contributes to end the service life of …

Deterministic Models
This chapter presents the formulation and application of deterministic models for service life
prediction of buildings and their components. These models are based on regression …
