LehB:KlimafitDemo2+1 - Living in existing buildings today: climate-friendly renovations in existing buildings within the framework of the common good housing law
The LehB:KlimafitDemo2+1 project examines innovative renovation solutions for the climate-fit modernization of non-profit residential buildings without placing a financial burden on tenants. By implementing a flexible modular system and involving the residents, economic, technical and social aspects of the renovation are optimized. The aim is to make an important contribution to achieving climate neutrality by 2040 through adapted measures and comprehensive monitoring.
Heat islands Feldbach - Synergetic measures against overheating and heavy rain in preparation for an R&D&I project in Feldbach
Analysis and evaluation of the effects and cost-benefit ratios of synergetic measures with regard to overheating and heavy rain in cities. Based on this, an implementation plan will be developed for a subsequent demonstration in Feldbach, which can be used in many similar cities.
ProzesSan - Development of processes to increase the decarbonisation and refurbishment rate in the housing sector
The project aims to assist owners of large property portfolios with the challenges of refurbishing their buildings. The first step is to identify the various obstacles and develop appropriate solutions. These will be tested in three workshop phases with the owners, and a workshop manual and guidelines will be developed.
AI4FM - Artificial Intelligence for Facility Management
AI-based anomaly and fault detection in buildings. Digital twins of buildings with simulation models for testing and optimizing rule-based fault detection methods. Mining of the recorded time-series data from existing Building Management Systems to train Machine Learning models for fault detection.
GreenGEO - Data-based integration of climate change adaptation measures into spatial planning
Green and blue infrastructure (GBI) is a key instrument in the fight against climate change. Nevertheless, deciding where and in what form it should be used most effectively remains a challenge in spatial planning practice. The development of a digital model that links location-specific climate risk data with suitable GBI measure proposals will make this much easier and more objective.
PDCA4Future - Feasibility Study for a Climate-Resilient Urban District in Bruck an der Mur through a New Planning and Financing Approach
Using the Hannes-Bammer-Sports Hall as a case study, the PDCA4Future feasibility project in Bruck an der Mur aims to develop an innovative planning and assessment tool. This involves creating renovation and financing models that align climate neutrality goals with sustainable urban planning. The objective is a fact-based and replicable investment decision (renovation vs. new construction).
FluccoSan - Circular energy flexibility for resilient, climate-neutral refurbishments
FluccoSan aims to develop innovative and cost-effective refurbishment solutions for the building sector that contribute to achieving the Austrian federal government's climate targets. The focus is on energy-efficient, minimally invasive and socially acceptable measures, so-called “dynamic renovations”. By integrating the circular economy and social science research, these solutions should ensure long-term sustainability and a high level of acceptance among users. Status: ongoing
Path to the Future (WEG zur Zukunft) - The Path to Implementing a Climate-Resilient Future in Condominium Ownership
The research project "WEG zur Zukunft / Path to the Future" examines the low renovation rates of condominium owners' associations (WEGs) in Austria and the associated communicative, regulatory, organizational, and financial challenges. In collaboration with the affected stakeholders – primarily owners and property management companies – foundations for solutions are being developed through a co-creative process that can assist in the path toward implementation.
RaumCoop 2.0 - Space Cooperative, a systematic operational model for activating unused or underutilized spaces.
The RaumCoop organizes the sharing of spaces, mobilizes underutilized spaces for non-residential purposes in the ground floor area, and makes them available for temporary use at affordable conditions. The goal of the project is to establish this non-profit organization.
ReAssuRe – risk management for re-use of construction components and building technology by non-destructive on-site testing procedures
Risk assessment and insurability is essential for the re-use of functional components in buildings. In the best case, properties of components can be examined before they are removed from the donor building. ReAssuRe identifies suitable on-site testing procedures and establishes a network for the quality assurance of re-use components.
ResourceRevival - District development from industry site to resource neutrality in Möllersdorf
The reuse of building elements is a much-discussed topic, but a truly circular district encompasses much more. Through interdisciplinary cooperation as part of a co-creative concept development at the Werk Möllersdorf, previously separately considered aspects of the circular economy are combined, symbioses between demand and availability of materials, energy, rainwater and grey water are identified and their circularity is maximized.
Climate Scan District - Exploration and evaluation of potential districts regarding their suitability as a pioneer district
The "Climate Scan District" project aims to select the most suitable pioneer district in Dornbirn by applying the klima:aktiv criteria catalog for climate-neutral districts. This supports the city's transformation to climate neutrality by 2040. Extensive district profiles, action plans, and future visions are developed to create a well-founded and comprehensive basis for decision-making.
NutOpIA Klagenfurt - Optimisation of indoor and outdoor use in Klagenfurt
The NutOpIA Klagenfurt project aims to drive the transformation to a climate-neutral city forward by optimising the use of spaces and areas both internally and externally.
GeoDatKlim - Geo Data and Satellite Data for Carbon Neutral Cities
The Vienna Geospace Hub innovation lab will help optimize the application of geospatial and satellite data to solve complex urban challenges. The innovation lab serves as a networking platform for administration, science, economy, as well as a development and test environment for innovative use cases.
Earthen building 2.0: Earthen building of the future - The art of craftsmanship based on engineering approaches
The exploratory project investigates the suitability of fiber optic sensors for the long-term monitoring of the deformation behavior of rammed earth wall elements under moisture and temperature fluctuations (shrinkage) as well as loads (creep). The experimental findings will be integrated into a finite element model to simulate failure behavior under load.
