AIVC project: "Development and applications of building air leakage databases"

There are several national initiatives to collect air leakage data from field measurements buildings as a whole, building components, or ductwork systems. However, at this stage, there is no structured communication between these actions although they could mutually benefit from sharing their experience and encourage other similar initiatives in other countries having in mind the lessons learnt from the previous ones.
