Assessment of GHG emissions from materials during building design - Methods for improved reliability and quality
Resch, Eirik (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:15, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Construction materials in buildings contribute significantly to climate change. Globally, nations have committed to drastic reductions of greenhouse gases (GHG), among them Norway which has committed to 50-55% reduction ... -
Brukertilfredshet i passivhusboliger og sammenligning med boliger bygget etter TEK10 og TEK07 - Opplevelser om inneklima og innemiljø, arkitektonisk og teknisk utforming
Bjørnstad, Knut-Andre (Master thesis, 2016)Utgangspunktet for denne masteroppgaven har vært å finne ut hvordan selve opplevelsen av det å bo i passivhus er med fokus på inneklima, innemiljø, arkitektonisk og teknisk utforming. Samtidig har målet også vært å finne ... -
Building Bioclimatic Design in cold climate office buildings
Ness, Maria Coral Albelda-Estellés; Andresen, Inger; Kleiven, Tommy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Building Bioclimatic Design (BBCD) understands architecture as a filter between outdoor climate and indoor comfort. This way, it encourages the exploitation of freely available climatic resources, before adding any HVAC ... -
