(Prosjektrapport (SINTEF Byggforsk);38, Research report, 2009) -
Compact wooden roofs with smart vapour barrier – Pilot project experiences
(Peer reviewed; Conference object; Journal article, 2020)Compact roofs are normally built without organic materials between the vapour barrier and the roof membrane due to moisture safety risks. However, laboratory measurements indicate that organic materials could be used ... -
Comparative analysis of the sound conditions at the neonatal intensive care units of two Norwegian hospitals
(Chapter, 2024)Excessive sound levels of preterm infants may contribute to negative physiological effects. Yet, recommended sound level limits are consistently exceeded at neonatal intensive care units (NICU), both inside and outside of ... -
A comparative assessment of building sustainability schemes in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Various schemes are established to evaluate the sustainability of buildings during their life cycle. These schemes introduce a range of evaluation criteria and indicators and are periodically revised to align with current ... -
Comparative Assessment of the Carbon Footprint of on-site and off-site Wall Element Constructions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Off-site construction is considered as environmentally preferable to on-site due to the controlled environment for planning and production before assembly in the construction site. However, evaluating the actual environmental ... -
