The present paper investigates the impact of different water penetration criteria on the risk for damage in a common type of building envelope in Nordic countries, timber frame walls with brick masonry veneer. The studied walls are evaluated based on one damage criterion, the risk of mold growth. The study investigates several parameters: water penetration criterion, type of moisture source (uniformly distributed or point source) and its position in the wall assembly, air change rate (ACR) (representing different workmanship scenarios), wind-driven rain (WDR) coefficient, and locations (Gothenburg and Rensjön, with different average annual rainfall and temperature). Two criteria on how to implement water penetration are compared: a) a commonly accepted reference model that assumes one percent of all wind-driven rain deposited on the façade to penetrate the clay brick cladding, and b) a new criterion stating that 3.8% of WDR penetrates when the water content of the brick veneer cladding is above 90% of its saturation capacity. The simulation is done for a thirteen-year period with WUFI Pro and WUFI 2D. The results indicate the greater importance of implementing water penetration compared to ventilation in cavities. Further, the findings suggest that the moisture source's location significantly impacts the mold growth risk. The results also show that the choice of the WDR coefficient affects the risks, which suggests that this factor needs accurate quantification for hygrothermal analyses. The results in this study suggest that an effective measure for the design/maintenance of such walls should incorporate: a) limiting the amount of water penetrating through the cladding, particularly stopping water from reaching the sensitive elements, i.e., timber studs, b) removing extruded mortar stemming from poor workmanship, if any, which may act as a capillary bridge.
