b) using a climatic chamber (climatic chamber method).
The desiccator method is the reference method.
This document does not specify the method for sampling.
The methods specified in this document can be used to determine the moisture content of a sample in

ISO 13788:2012 gives simplified calculation methods for:
      The internal surface temperature of a building component or building element below which mould growth is likely, given the internal temperature and relative humidity. The method can also be used to assess the risk of other internal surface condensation problems.
      The assessment of the risk of interstitial condensation due to water vapour diffusion. The method used does not take account of a number of important physical phenomena including the variation of material properties with moisture content; capillary suction and liquid moisture transfer within materials; air movement from within the building into the component through gaps or within air spaces; the hygroscopic moisture capacity of materials.
      The time taken for water, from any source, in a layer between two high vapour resistance layers to dry out and the risk of interstitial condensation occurring elsewhere in the component during the drying process.

This standard deals with the waterproofing of structures by means of bitumious materials, metal strips and synthetic waterproofing sheats to prevent leakage of water pressing from the inside, i. e. water exerting hydrostatic pressure on the waterproog seal from inside, such as in drinking water tanks, reservoirs, swimming pools and stormwater retention tanks. This standard does not deal with seals for earthworks or for protection against chemicals.

ISO 15927-5:2004 specifies the definition, method of calculation and method of presentation of the climatic data to be used in determining the design heat load for space heating in buildings. These include the winter external design air temperatures and the relevant wind speed and direction, where appropriate.
Heat loss through the ground, which also contributes to the heat load for buildings, depends on longer-term temperature changes; methods for calculating ground heat loss are given in ISO 13370.

This standard specifies a method for determining, by partial immersion with no temperature gradient, the short-term liquid water absorption coefficient. It is intended to assess the rate of absorption of water, by capillary action from continuous or driving rain during on site storage or construction, by insulating and other materials, which are normally protected. The method is suitable for renders or coatings tested in conjunction with the substrate on which they are normally mounted.
It is not intended to assess the absorption of water by materials used under water or in overall contact with saturated ground, where a total immersion test is more appropriate.

ISO 15927-1:2003 specifies procedures for calculating and presenting the monthly means of those parameters of climatic data needed to assess some aspects of the thermal and moisture performance of buildings. Numerical values for any locations should be obtained from the meteorological service in the relevant country.
ISO 15927-1:2003 covers the following single climate variables: air temperature; atmospheric humidity; wind speed; precipitation; solar radiation; longwave radiation.
Meteorological instrumentation and methods of observation are not covered; these are specified by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).

This standard specifies the equations to be used in a simulation method for calculating the non steady transfer of heat and moisture through building structures.  
It also provides a benchmark example intended to be used for validating a simulation method claiming conformity with this standard, together with the allowed tolerances.
The equations in this standard take account of the following storage and one-dimensional transport phenomena:
-   heat storage in dry building materials and absorbed water;
-   heat transport by moisture-dependent thermal conduction;
-   latent heat transfer by vapour diffusion;
-   moisture storage by vapour sorption and capillary forces;
-   moisture transport by vapour diffusion;
-   moisture transport by liquid transport (surface diffusion and capillary flow).
The equations described in this standard account for the following climatic variables:
-   internal and external temperature;
-   internal and external humidity;
-   solar and longwave radiation;
-   precipitation (normal and driving rain);
-   wind speed and direction.
The hygrothermal equations described in this standard shall not be applied in cases where:
-   convection takes place through holes and cracks;
-   two-dimensional effects play an important part (e.g. rising damp, conditions around thermal bridges, effect of gravitational forces);
•   hydraulic, osmotic, electrophoretic forces are present;
daily mean temperatures in the component exceed 50 °C.

The general principles are applicable to all hygroscopic and non hygroscopic building materials and products, including those with facings and integral skins.  Annexes give details of test methods suitable for different material types.  This standard is not applicable in the case of test specimens with water vapour diffusion-equivalent air layer thickness values less than 0,1 m, as a result of increasing uncertainty in the measurement results.  If the measured water vapour diffusion-equivalent air layer thickness is greater than 1500 m the material can be considered impermeable.
The results obtained by this method are suitable for design purposes, production control and for inclusion in product specifications.

a)   The internal surface temperature of a building component or building element below which mould growth is likely, given the internal temperature and relative humidity - the method can also be used to assess the risk of other surface condensation problems.
b) The assessment of the risk of interstitial condensation due to water vapour diffusion. The method used assumes built-in water has dried out and does not take account of a number of important physical phenomena including:
- the dependence of thermal conductivity on moisture content;
- the release and absorption of latent heat;
- the variation of material properties with moisture content;
- capillary suction and liquid moisture transfer within materials;
- air movement through cracks or within air spaces;
- the hygroscopic moisture capacity of materials.
Consequently the method is applicable only to structures where these effects are negligible.
