Determination of hygrothermal material properties of building materials.

The determination of hygrothermal material properties of building materials is of critical importance to the construction industry. Through accurate measurements and analysis, engineers and architects can make informed decisions about the selection and use of building materials to optimize the longevity, energy efficiency and comfort levels of buildings. These regulations are particularly important in relation to climate change and the increasing demand for sustainable building materials that have a minimal environmental impact.

Building physics quality assurance in the product development of new building materials.

We are happy to assist you with this essential step to ensure the performance and reliability of building materials. Through comprehensive tests and analyses, manufacturers can optimize the (hygro)thermal properties of their products to meet the requirements of modern construction projects. Thorough quality assurance not only contributes to the safety and longevity of buildings, but also supports innovation and progress in the construction industry by producing high-quality, efficient and sustainable building materials.

Examination of existing buildings with facades worthy of preservation.

The laboratory staff provide support with this important step in the preservation of historical monuments and in the construction industry. Comprehensive analyses enable architects and conservators to assess the condition of the façades, identify potential damage and plan suitable conservation measures. This often includes assessing material integrity, analyzing environmental stresses, preserving historic aesthetics while ensuring structural stability. A thorough investigation forms the basis for successful refurbishment projects that help to preserve cultural heritage and extend its lifespan.

Expert assessment of cases of damage (e.g. moisture exposure, lack of driving rain protection)

Through meticulous analysis, surveyors can identify the causes of damage, assess its extent and propose suitable solutions. This includes examining building materials, building structures and environmental factors to identify potential risks and recommend preventative measures. A sound expert assessment is crucial for repairing damage in a timely manner, protecting buildings from further damage and ensuring their long-term integrity and value retention.

Building physics monitoring of buildings and constructions.

Continuous monitoring enables engineers and specialists to collect important data on temperature or humidity, for example. This information makes it possible to identify potential problems at an early stage, optimize the efficiency of building systems and extend the service life of structures. Building physics monitoring is therefore an indispensable tool for quality assurance, operation and maintenance of buildings in various application areas.

Development of new sensor technologies and measurement methods and laboratory standards.

Through continuous innovation and the establishment of uniform standards, researchers, engineers and manufacturers can achieve high-quality measurement results that provide a reliable basis for research, development and quality control.
