2. 1. Documentation and Maintenance Planning Model – DoMaP A response to the need for conservation and long-term maintenance of façades of modern multi-apartment buildings Based on case studies in Göteborg in Sweden

   Author : Pär Meiling; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; public housing companies; façade-materials; Sustainable integrated conservation; long-term maintenance operations; deterioration; optical measurement techniques; generic multi-apartment buildings;

   Abstract : Sustainable maintenance and renovation of façades on generic multi-apartment buildings from late 1950s through 70s constitute vital challenges for the housing companies owned by City of Göteborg. These challenges comprise a wide array of issues, such as deterioration and damages in occurring façade materials, status assessments, technical improvements, reduction of energy consumption, and up-keeping of housing qualities and tenants attraction.

   Author : Jenny Hällström; Bebyggelsevård; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; remote sensing; lidar; laser-induced fluorescence; documentation; hyperspectral; non invasive; non destructive; sustainable maintenance; conservation planning; monitoring; Coliseum; architectural conservation; restoration; Övedskloster; deterioration; Lateran Baptistery; stone; brick; thematic mapping; in situ; imaging; biodeteriogens;

   Abstract : The on-site documentation and examination of architectural heritage has presented challenges for traditional analysis methods in the form of, among other things, large complex structures, sites and environmental conditions. In recent years there has been growing interest in assessing progressing deterioration processes and material analysis, with an emphasis on sustainable conservation and maintenance planning.

5. 3. Sustainability and Flexural Behaviour of Textile Reinforced Concrete

   Author : Natalie Williams Portal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Life Cycle Assessment LCA ; sustainability; Textile Reinforced Concrete; TRC; facade elements; flexural behaviour; non-linear finite element analyses; structural tests;

   Abstract : Concrete reinforced with conventional steel is one of the most commonly used building materials, yet it has historically shown disadvantages in terms of durability and vulnerability to corrosion attack. Various remedial methods have been applied to overcome the shortcomings of this building material, such as increasing the concrete cover, which, however, leads to an increased self-weight of the structure.

6. 4. Conservation and maintenance of modern buildings. The need of long-term maintenance of building façades in metropolitan housing areas. A model-proposal for documentation, analysis and intervention

   Author : Pär Meiling; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; long-term-maintenance; documentation and analysis; façade materials and deterioration; integrated conservation and sustainable urban development; residential prefabricated buildings;

   Abstract : ABSTRACTMany European towns, as well as conurbations world wide include a significant amount of residential prefabricated buildings from the late 1950s, 60s and 70s. Housing often is concentrated to suburbs as a result of societal planning and development during this period. READ MORE

7. 5. Decision support for the implementation of low-carbon measures in the building sector

   Author : Nicolas Francart; Tove Malmqvist; Paula Femenias; KTH; []

   Abstract : The building sector is responsible for about a fifth to a third of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Therefore, a successful mitigation of GHG emissions over the entire life cycle of buildings is particularly important to achieve climate targets such as the Paris Agreement. READ MORE
