2.1.3. South facade Fig. 4 shows the network used in the south façade. Table 3 presents the temperature and RH results for the southern facade, with highest temperature at points P2, P8, P9, P12 and P17 (22.1 ºC) and lowest at P5, P14 and P15 (21.6 ºC). The measured temperature at 50 cm was similar to the temperature next to wall surface, with the highest value occurring at point P8 (22.1 ºC) and the lowest value at points P5, P7, P14, P15 and P16 (21.7°C). The RH has a maximum value of 8 % at point P5.

2.1.4. North facade Fig. 5 shows the measuring network adopted in the northern façade and Table 4 presents the temperature and relative humidity values measured in the network points, showing that highest temperature occurs at points P12, P16, P18, P20, P22 and P23 (22.1 °C) and the lowest in point P1 (21.5 °C). For the temperature at 50 cm the highest value occurs at points P21, P22, P23, 25 and P26 (22.1 °C) and the lowest at point P1 (21.4 ºC). The relative humidity is the highest when compared with the other facades, with a maximum value of 28% at points P9 and P10 and lowest of 5%
