which has high heat insulation parameters. Walls can be erected from aerated concrete masonry constructions and in perfect circumstances additional heat insulation is not required. The most common problem in aerated concrete heat insulation properties is the humidity distribution throughout the cross section of the masonry elements as well as proper and conducted drying process of the aerated concrete construction because only dry aerated concrete masonry constructions can reach high heat insulation parameters. In order to monitor drying process of the masonry and detect humidity distribution throughout the cross section of aerated concrete masonry construction application of electrical impedance spectrometry is applied. Further test results and methodology of this non-destructive testing method is described in this paper.</p> <iframe src="https://publications.waset.org/10000141.pdf" style="width:100%; height:400px;" frameborder="0"></iframe> <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Aerated%20concrete" title="Aerated concrete">Aerated concrete</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=electrical%20impedance%20spectrometry" title=" electrical impedance spectrometry"> electrical impedance spectrometry</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=humidity%20distribution" title=" humidity distribution"> humidity distribution</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=non-destructive%20testing." title=" non-destructive testing."> non-destructive testing.</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Digital Object Identifier (DOI):</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1337761" target="_blank">doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1337761</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/impact-of-masonry-joints-on-detection-of-humidity-distribution-in-aerated-concrete-masonry-constructions-by-electric-impedance-spectrometry-measurements" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/apa" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">APA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/bibtex" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">BibTeX</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/chicago" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Chicago</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/endnote" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">EndNote</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/harvard" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Harvard</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/json" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">JSON</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/mla" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">MLA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/ris" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">RIS</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/xml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">XML</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141/iso690" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">ISO 690</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10000141.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">2119</span> </span> <p class="card-text"><strong>References:</strong></p> <br>[1] http://aeroc.lv/index.php?page=938&lang=lat&cnt=AEROC_Universal (site accessed on June 30, 2014). <br>[2] Parilkova, J.
