Abstract

A system and a method for detecting moisture within a structure uses a cementitious panel (25) comprising a cementitious core (52) and a pair of cover layers (54, 55). A moisture sensor (30) is mounted to one (54) of the pair of cover sheets (54, 55). The moisture sensor (30) can comprise a moisture-sensing, passive RFID tag. A reader can be used to periodically interrogate the RFID moisture-sensing tag to determine whether the RFID moisture-sensing tag has been subjected to moisture. Detecting moisture within a structure can use at least one such cementitious panel in a structural assembly, such as a roof assembly, for example, to help detect a leak in the roof assembly through periodic monitoring of the installed cementitious panel(s).

The present invention concerns a process for the calcination of raw gypsum in a heatable extruder, wherein the raw gypsum is feed into the extruder and heated to a temperature of from 150°C to 350°C to thereby convert the raw gypsum to calcined gypsum with a content of calcium hemihydrate of at least 50 wt.-%. By using a heatable extruder for the calcination, calcined gypsum with a high content of calcium sulphate hemihydrate and low residual amounts of the respective dihydrate and anhydrite can be obtained. The present invention further concerns a system, which is adapted to such preparation of calcined gypsum and comprises an appropriate heatable extruder and the use of a heatable extruder for the calcination of raw gypsum.
