Hosted by Universidade do Minho, we are excited to announce the upcoming International Conference on Moisture in Buildings (ICMB25), which will be held from 23rd to 24th October 2025 in the historic city of Guimarães, Portugal.
This event will gather leading researchers, professionals, and industry experts to discuss and explore critical issues related to moisture control, building sustainability, and the effects of moisture on building materials and health. We encourage you to submit an abstract to present your work and contribute to the global conversation on moisture management in buildings.
The deadline for abstract submission has been extended to 20th December. Don’t miss this opportunity to share your work and contribute to shaping the future of moisture management in buildings.
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer, providing a valuable platform for high-quality research. Papers will also be indexed in Scopus, Ei-Compendex, and Web of Science, ensuring wide dissemination and impact.
Please see more details about the submission process
We are honoured to announce Dr. Antonio Maria D’Altri (Università di Bologna) as one of our keynote speakers, with the lecture: Simulation of salt crystallization-induced damage in historic porous building materials: from moisture transport to micromechanics.
New Special Sessions have been approved and now authors have, in addition to the general sessions, the possibility to submit contributions to the following Special Sessions:
1. Impact of Moisture on the Performance and Durability of Thermal Insulation Solutions
2. Moisture in Multi-Layered Building Envelopes: Mechanisms and Modelling
3. Hygrothermal and Lifecycle Performance of Geo and Biobased Materials
4. Hygrothermal Responses of Building Envelope Systems to Climate Change
