Corners and basement junctions of different timber-framed walls were studied by computer simulation using Delphin 5.8.3 software. Wooden cladding and brick veneer were compared with each other, as well as different wind barrier solutions. Both internal and external corners were studied, first assuming them airtight and then modelling an air leak. Simulations were performed both in present and future climate conditions. According to the results, the walls with wooden cladding and brick veneer had a big difference in their hygrothermal behaviour. Mould index rose considerably after construction in sole plate of brick clad wall, even if the plate was originally dry. Wet sole plates dried up very slowly. Almost all corner junctions of walls with wooden cladding performed well when there was no air leak. Corners of brick clad walls were more problematic. With an air leak, all studied walls developed considerably high mould indices, underlining the importance of building airtightness.
