Conservation compatible passive retrofit solutions

This report presents a compilation of passive retrofit solutions that can be applied <br/>to historic buildings subjected to conservation requirements. The aim is to gather <br/>the most common strategies and provide a general overview of their key <br/>characteristics, enabling a meaningful comparison and supporting the selection <br/>of the most appropriate solutions for different building contexts. Each solution is <br/>assessed based on a set of parameters, including general information, technical <br/>specifications, and aspects related to sustainability and lifecycle performance. The <br/>collected solutions are presented in summary tables within this report, while an <br/>Excel version is available in the annex to facilitate filtering and sorting. In total, <br/>the report includes 80 insulation retrofit solutions and 76 window retrofit variants.<br/><br/>In addition, an assessment of collected retrofit solutions was made for each <br/>building typology defined in Deliverable 1.2. This selection was carried out <br/>through a collaborative workshop with project partners from FuturHist. The <br/>choice of solutions was based on several criteria, including building construction <br/>characteristics, local regulations, and regional retrofit approaches. The outcome <br/>of this process is a list identifying retrofit solutions that are most appropriate for <br/>the specific needs and constraints of each typology.

Abstract

This report presents a compilation of passive retrofit solutions that can be applied <br/>to historic buildings subjected to conservation requirements. The aim is to gather <br/>the most common strategies and provide a general overview of their key <br/>characteristics, enabling a meaningful comparison and supporting the selection <br/>of the most appropriate solutions for different building contexts. Each solution is <br/>assessed based on a set of parameters, including general information, technical <br/>specifications, and aspects related to sustainability and lifecycle performance. The <br/>collected solutions are presented in summary tables within this report, while an <br/>Excel version is available in the annex to facilitate filtering and sorting. In total, <br/>the report includes 80 insulation retrofit solutions and 76 window retrofit variants.<br/><br/>In addition, an assessment of collected retrofit solutions was made for each <br/>building typology defined in Deliverable 1.2. This selection was carried out <br/>through a collaborative workshop with project partners from FuturHist. The <br/>choice of solutions was based on several criteria, including building construction <br/>characteristics, local regulations, and regional retrofit approaches. The outcome <br/>of this process is a list identifying retrofit solutions that are most appropriate for <br/>the specific needs and constraints of each typology.
