SUStainable, innovative and energy-efficient CONcrete, based on the integration of all-waste materials (SUS-CON)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
The project aims at developing new technology routes to integrate waste materials in the production cycle of concrete, for both ready-mixed and pre-cast applications, resulting in an innovative light-weight, eco-compatible and cost-effective construction material, made by all-waste raw materials and characterized by low embodied energy and CO2 and by improved ductility and thermal insulation perfo ...

Low Embodied Energy Advanced (Novel) Insulation Materials and Insulating Masonry Components for Energy Efficient Buildings (LEEMA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
A review of the embodied energy values of the various building materials shows that the embodied energy of the most widely used insulation materials in construction applications is characterised by very high values. This mainly results either from the energy intensive conditions applied for the manufacturing of the mineral based insulation materials or from the high embodied energies of the oil-ba ...

Cost-Effective Tools for Better Indoor Environment in Retrofitted Energy Efficient Buildings (CETIEB)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
The refurbishing to an energy efficient standard leads to tight buildings (whole envelope: windows, walls, etc.) and affects the indoor climate. In case of refurbishing the inhabitants or users are not adapted to this new situation. Therefore the air exchange rates could be lower than required if no mechanical ventilation is installed or the system performance is not optimised. Then, in trying to ...
