Thermal improvements of box-window using shading attachments. Hot-box measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This research explores shading potential for improving the thermal properties of a box-window. Two different types of shades along with three placements were considered. Ten configurations were tested in a hot-box apparatus ... -
Validation of decomposition models for solar irradiance at high latitudes: A preliminary study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The accurate estimation of buildings' solar potential contributes to boost the exploitation of solar energy at high latitudes. The decomposition of global irradiation into the direct and diffuse fractions is a fundamental ... -
Geofence for fartsreduksjon på buss
(SINTEF;2024:00074, Research report, 2024)Geofencing er et verktøy som innebærer å sette opp et digitalt gjerde, som med posisjoneringsteknologi kan brukes til trafikkregulering innenfor en gitt sone avgrenset på et digitalt kart. Slik kan geofencing brukes til ... -
Energy profiles and electricity flexibility potential in apartment buildings with electric vehicles – A Norwegian case study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Energy flexibility in buildings has the potential to reduce the grid burden of neighbourhoods, yet its practical implementation remains limited. This paper presents a data-based case study from Norway, examining the ... -
Fire spread in a large compartment with exposed cross-laminated timber and open ventilation conditions: #FRIC-02 - Exposed wall and ceiling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is becoming increasingly popular due to its many advantages. However, it has been shown that exposed CLT can have a significant effect on fire dynamics and spread rates. Further studies are ... -
Evaluating the stormwater management model for hydrological simulation of infiltration swales in cold climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) is a widely used tool for assessing the hydrological performance of infiltration swales. However, validating the accuracy of SWMM simulation against observed data has been challenging, ... -
Supporting the implementation of renewable energy technologies in the road infrastructure - ENROAD
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Achieving 2030 targets of reduction of emissions and increase of energy generation from renewable sources require of the participation of the sectors with a greater impact on the environment, those highly contributing to ... -
Moisture safety strategy for construction of CLT structures in a coastal Nordic climate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)To reduce the carbon impact of new buildings, wood is seeing increased use as a structural material. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) and glue-laminated wood (glulam) elements allow the construction of multi-storey buildings. ... -
A chronological development of a framework for emission free construction sites in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The building and construction sector is responsible for 3.4% of total GHG emissions in Norway. Around 95% of these emissions arise from the combustion of fossil fuels for the operation of construction machinery and transport. ... -
A comparative assessment of the development of GHG emission criteria and benchmark values for buildings in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)GHG emission criteria and benchmark values for buildings are being developed internationally to meet climate goals in the Paris agreement. However, there is a distinct lack of harmonisation in approaches making it difficult ... -
Rain resistance of windows – Lessons learned from two decades of laboratory testing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Windows are important in buildings intended for human activities as they let in daylight and provide views. However, they may also be vulnerable in terms of heat loss, air leaks, rain tightness, and durability. In Nordic ... -
Wind-driven rain tightness of building-integrated photovoltaics panels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The exposure to wind-driven rain (WDR) is a key factor impacting the performance and the durability of the building envelope. Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) panels are increasingly used as roofing and façade ... -
