Existing benchmark systems for assessing global warming potential of buildings – Analysis of IEA EBC Annex 72 cases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Life cycle assessment (LCA) is increasingly being used as a tool by the building industry and actors to assess the global warming potential (GWP) of building activities. In several countries, life cycle based requirements ... -
Experiences of main risks and mitigation in autonomous transport systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper discusses experiences, risks and mitigation in autonomous transport systems, to improve learning and risk-based governance. This is based on literature reviews, experiences of autonomous transport systems and ... -
Experiences with CLT Construction in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Conference object; Journal article, 2020)The use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) elements in buildings is an innovative and upcoming construction method. In Norway, due to its eco-friendly potential, more widespread use of the method is expected despite limited ... -
Experiences with external drainage systems from compact roofs in Norwegian climates
(Peer reviewed; Conference object; Journal article, 2020)To reduce loads on urban drainage systems and facilitate local infiltration of stormwater, it is desired to lead runoff water from roofs through external drains and into the local soil. However, in cold climates, situations ... -

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of One-Dimensional Infiltration into Unsaturated Soil
(Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering;1, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2021)Infiltration characteristics of an unsaturated soil are of interest in both seepage and stability analyses and should be evaluated carefully. In this study, a new large-scale one-dimensional infiltration column test setup ... -
Experimental investigation of simultaneous nitrification-denitrification and phosphorus removal in pilot-scale sequencing batch moving bed biofilm reactors (SB-MBBRs)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Sequencing batch moving bed biofilm reactors have been widely used in commercial wastewater treatment facilities for organic carbon and nitrogen removal. However, these reactors can remove low phosphorus (P) levels. ... -
Experimental study of fire exposed expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation protected by selected coverings
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Insulation products made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) are commonly utilized in buildings. However, Norwegian building regulations restrict the use of such combustible insulation due to an increased risk of fire spread and ... -
Experimental Study of the Charring of I-Joists and Recession of Combustible Insulation in Light Timber Frame Assemblies with Comparison to Eurocode 5
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Design models are commonly used in fire safety design of light timber frame assemblies. Parameters for use in the models are available for rectangular members with mineral wool, wood fibre or cellulose insulation and for ... -
Experimental Study of Thermal Buoyancy in the Cavity of Ventilated Roofs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Pitched wooden roofs are ventilated through an air cavity beneath the roofing in order to remove heat and moisture from the roof construction. The ventilation is driven by wind pressure and thermal buoyancy. This paper ... -
Experimental study on flexural ductility in over-reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete beams : FA 3 Aesthetics and technical performance SP 3.3. Structural Performance
(COIN Project report;70, Research report, 2013)This study focuses on ductility of lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) in compression. The major disadvantage of LWAC is the brittleness in compression at the material level compared to normal density concrete. Requirements ... -
Explaining the historical energy use in dwelling stocks with a segmented dynamic model: case study of Norway 1960-2015
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)A segmented dynamic dwelling stock model is proven useful for understanding the development and changes of ageing building stocks, which is highly relevant for renovation measures and estimates of energy use and emissions ... -
Explanatory variables underlying the route choice decisions of tourists: The case of Geiranger Fjord in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The tourism industry is rapidly growing, and the massification of certain areas is jeopardising the environment. Certain roads in protected areas or near tourist attractions are experiencing an increase in traffic volumes, ... -
Exploring the impact of problem formulation in numerical optimization: A case study of the design of PV integrated shading systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Optimization in buildings has been increasingly popular due to its growing availability and documented ability to improve the performance of building designs following specified targets. However, the quality and robustness ... -
Exploring the link between the EU emissions trading system and net-zero emission neighbourhoods
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Climate policy is transforming the energy system and the building sector. Since these sectors overlap, we need to understand how the short-term operational link between them impact their long-term development subject to ... -
Exposure to cooking emitted volatile organic compounds with recirculating and extracting ventilation solutions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Energy-efficient urban development leads to the compact design of apartments. Recirculating ventilation solutions are an attempt to minimize the space required for ventilation ducting, but more data on their performance ... -
Factors Affecting the Fire Safety Design of Photovoltaic Installations Under Performance-Based Regulations in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The impact of Photovoltaic (PV) installations on the fire safety of buildings must be considered in all building projects where such energy systems are established. The holistic fire safety of the building largely depends ... -
