Renovation of Wintercircus (Ghent)
Research towards optimal insulation solutions for the building envelope of an important heritage building in the city centre of Ghent
The energy performance and indoor climate of the Wintercircus should be optimized by examining different options towards architecture and building physics
The main focus is the reconsideration of the building envelope with respect for the heritage value: choice of insulation and facade solutions, analysis of thermal bridges, optimization of construction detailing for different levels of ambition
The impact of the choices should be evaluated by using the softwaretool TRISCO for calculations on building physics
