Freeze-thaw test is to determine the durability of the product to cyclic freezing and thawing. The assessment influence of aging by cyclic freeze - thawing is based on testing mechanical and structural properties (depending on tested material).
Sea water or breeze test is to determine the durability of the product performed by aging test caused by sea water or breeze. The innovative test procedure includes two aging methods:
1. For artificial aging in substitute ocean water, 18 immersion drying cycles are performed. Each cycle consists of 55 hours of immersion (a total of 1,000 hours in 18 cycles) and 112 hours of drying at 38°C (a total of 2,000 hours).
2. Immersion in alternative ocean water for 3000 h (Stefano De Santis, 2018).

Some of the highest thermal energy losses from a building are through its envelope systems and components. These thermal losses contribute significantly to the energy used by HVAC systems and, in turn, the energy bill and carbon footprint of the building. The best way to assess how well a building or solution is performing on the thermal point of view is a specifically studied combination of different activities, such as airtightness tests, and thermal, heat flux and hygrothermal monitoring.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) can be defined by the depiction of concentrations of pollutants and thermal conditions that may negatively affect the health, comfort, and performance of building's occupants. Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems and can include also building materials releasing pollutants more or less continuously.

Photometric tests are a very important tool to assess the overall performance of a building, especially in terms of energy efficiency and comfort for the users. Good daylighting solutions demand an integrated and holistic building design approach: developing solutions that are part of the main concept, while meeting visual, thermal and energy needs.
