ᐅ Moisture issue with interior plaster after installing external insulation using ventilated rainscreen system

Hello,
we are currently working on a rough construction site schedule and have come across a question.
We plan to insulate the exterior facade with 25cm (10 inches) ETICS (classic polystyrene boards) immediately after completing the exterior walls, roof, and window installation. (The advantage is that we only need to set up scaffolding once, and we avoid issues with drying times during winter.)
Now to my question:
If we plaster the interior walls afterward, will the moisture introduced during this process still be able to escape effectively if the external thermal insulation is already installed on the exterior wall? The same applies to the screed applied afterward.
Thank you very much for your information and answers.
Best regards,
Stefan

Peanuts7415 Jun 2016 06:52Yes, I do miss some things, but I never really find the time to take a proper look. Since the basement is not fully finished yet, there is still no space for some items to be permanently placed. That’s why the boxes are just sitting around and are unpacked gradually as each room in the basement gets completed...
