A probabilistic-based approach for predicting mould growth in timber building envelopes: Comparison of three mould models
Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie; Time, Berit; Kohler, Jochen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper applies a probabilistic-based approach as a methodology to analyze and compare the mould growth computations’ results from three different mould models. This approach, instead of the conventional deterministic ... -
A probabilistic-based methodology for predicting mould growth in façade constructions
Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie; Time, Berit; Kohler, Jochen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Predicting mould growth on façade constructions during design is important for preventing financial loss, and ensuring a healthy and comfortable indoor environment. Uncertainties in predicting mould growth are related to ... -
Assessment of greenhouse gas emissions of ventilated timber wall constructions based on parametric LCA
Fufa, Selamawit Mamo; Skaar, Christofer; Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Durability of traditional clamped joints in the vapour barrier layer: Experimental and numerical analysis
Gullbrekken, Lars; Gradeci, Klodian; Norvik, Øyvind Siksjø; Rüther, Petra; Geving, Stig (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Clamped joints of wood frame buildings are a traditional way in Norway to attain airtight joints for the air and vapour barrier. Numerous defects registered in the SINTEF Building Defects Archive related to air leakage ... -
Evaluating highly insulated walls to withstand biodeterioration: A probabilistic-based methodology
Gradeci, Klodian; Berardi, Umberto; Time, Berit; Kohler, Jochen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The performance to withstand biodeterioration of highly insulated walls is evaluated by applying a probabilistic-based methodology that accounts for the involved uncertainties and investigates their significance. Three ... -
From Zero Emission Buildings (ZEB) to Zero Emission Neighbourhoods (ZEN): A Mapping Review of Algorithm-Based LCA
Skaar, Christofer; Labonnote, Nathalie; Gradeci, Klodian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The building industry is responsible for approximately 40% of energy consumption and 36% of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union (EU). The most efficient way of reducing a building’s environmental impact is ... -
Mould Models Applicable to Wood-Based Materials – A Generic Framework
Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie; Kohler, Jochen; Time, Berit (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper systematically reviews mould models that are applicable to wood-based materials. Both similarities and differences are observed with respect to governing factors and their interrelations, methodology, experimental ... -
Multi-objective parametric study of a wooden window
Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie; Grynning, Steinar (CESBP 2019, Conference object; Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The aim of this study is to conduct a multi-objective parametric study by simultaneously analysing the thermal and structural performance of a wood-frame window. The finite element simulation program COMSOL is used to carry ... -
On the potential of integrating Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the Additive Manufacturing (AM) of concrete structures
Gradeci, Klodian; Labonnote, Nathalie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Additive Manufacturing (AM) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) are emerging trends for which it has been claimed that both increase both efficiency and productivity in the construction industry. The aim of this study ...
