A methodology to improve the performance of PV integrated shading devices using multi-objective optimization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Solar energy can be exploited efficiently in building façades using building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). This study presents a methodology to optimize the design of fixed, parametrically modelled PV integrated shading ... -
A Norwegian ZEB Definition Guideline
(ZEB Project report;29, Research report, 2016)The objective of this report is to provide a comprehensive and consistent guideline for the Norwegian definition of Zero Emission Buildings (ZEB) and the associated calculation methodologies. The guidelines described in ... -
A Norwegian ZEB-definition embodied emission
(ZEB Project report;17, Research report, 2014)This report deals with how to define what a Zero Emission Building (ZEB) is with explanation and analysis of different parameters related to embodied emissions of CO2 equivalents. The report can be used as a guidance tool ... -
A Norwegian zero emission neighbourhood (ZEN) definition and a ZEN key performance indicator (KPI) tool
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Within the Norwegian Research Centre for Zero Emission Neighbourhoods (ZEN) in smart cities, a definition for achieving zero emission neighbourhoods will be developed and tested against nine pilot areas. The ZEN definition ... -
A parametric study of the energy performance and carbon footprint of super-insulation in terrace constructions
(Conference object; Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Energy requirements for buildings are continually tightened, as seen in the ambitions to introduce near zero-energy building (nZEB) requirements in Norwegian and European building codes from 2020. One consequence of this ... -
A parametric tool for the assessment of operational energy use, embodied energy and embodied material emissions in building
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Current European legislation calls for the abatement of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through better building design and technological solutions, in order to reduce operational energy use, embodied energy and embodied ... -

A probabilistic-based approach for predicting mould growth in timber building envelopes: Comparison of three mould models
(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
(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 ... -
A procedure for the assessment of the undrained shear strength profile of soft clays
(Chapter, 2016)In the geotechnical research community, there is widespread agreement that the choice of the characteristic undrained shear strength (cuA) is very important and plays an essential role in the design and stability analysis ... -
