“…All of these indicate that the moisture content of the wall is high. The microwave measurements of the moisture content (Kurik et al 2015) and the study on indoor climate (Kalamees et al forthcoming) confirmed the hypothesis. The average relative humidity for the whole year was 85-87 % depending on the church.…”

“…14). Measurements of the moisture content using the microwave method (Kurik et al 2015) showed that condensation of water vapour in spring and early summer has an important part in wetting of the structure. This is caused mainly by the low temperature of the massive walls as the churches are unheated.…”
