This technical monograph is one of a set produced as part of the ‘REVIVAL’ project – an EU Energie Programme supported demonstration project of energy efficient and sustainable refurbishment of non-domestic buildings in Europe. The monographs explore some of the main energy and comfort issues which arose during the Design Forums held with each of the six sites. The four monographs are entitled:
- Thermal mass and phase change materials in buildings
- Adaptive thermal comfort standards and controls
- Natural ventilation strategies for refurbishment projects
- High performance daylighting
