In regions (hot regions) with high temperatures and humidity throughout the year, such as Okinawa, it is an environment where problems (moisture damage) related to moisture, such as condensation and mold occurrence, occur easily in interiors, behind ceilings, inside walls, etc. As temperatures and humidity continue to rise due to global warming, there is a high possibility that hot and humid regions will expand further, and it is considered essential to resolve issues related to the living environment there. It can also be said that a major turning point has arrived in the way Japanese buildings have been designed to target the cold of winter until now. The moisture damage currently occurring in Okinawa has the potential to become the standard for moisture damage in a wider region of Japan in the future. The purpose of this open study group is to raise awareness not only of researchers, designers, and constructors, but also of all people, including residents, about moisture damage problems occurring in present-day Okinawa, and to raise issues and exchange information about moisture damage in hot and humid regions as “a problem to be solved” rather than an “unavoidable problem.”
