An insulated building structure, in particular an insulated roof structure or a wall structure of a building, comprises at least one thermal insulation layer. At least one moisture-variable protective layer for the thermal insulation layer is provided on an outer side of the thermal insulation layer and on an inner side of the thermal insulation layer facing a building interior of the building. The protective layers each have a water vapor diffusion equivalent air layer thickness S.sub.d. The water vapor diffusion equivalent air layer thicknesses S.sub.d of the two protective layers deviate from each other by less than 20%, preferably less than 10%, in the range of a relative humidity from 0% to 25% and/or in the range of a relative humidity from 80% to 100%.

A biocidal composite wall or surface fabric installable within an aircraft cabin or other vehicle interior space includes a flexible woven layer. The woven layer is treated on its outer surface with a biocidal polymer coating. For example, the polymer coating may incorporate biocidal microcapsules or nanocapsules configured for controlled release of biocidal compounds in response to physical contact or other stimuli. The released biocidal compounds compromise or kill microbial compounds deposited on the outer surface, e.g., via physical contact by passengers or crewmembers. The woven layer includes additional biocidal molecules incorporated into its fibers and strands, the biocidal molecules capable of biocidal action in response to contact with the fabric.
