    Author : Simon Pallin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Many of the residential buildings in Sweden have a large need of retrofitting; a result of insufficient maintenance and natural decay due to their predicted end of service life. These buildings must be taken into consideration in a near future where new and adapted technical solutions are required, suitable for the present conditions and the new demands of energy use.
