The joint project UCARe4Citizen investigates the necessary framework conditions to simulate the climate impacts of urban planning measures and to visualize them in augmented reality.

This project aims at developing a concept for raising standardized, multi-story residential buildings using serially prefabricated components (surface elements / modules) with a high degree of prefabrication, including technical systems for building services.

The aim is to develop an innovative and user-friendly urban climate model called PALM-4U - including validation and testing of its practical suitability.

In the "ProPolis" project, the prerequisites necessary for the long-term operational operation of PALM-4U are being developed and summarized in a continuation strategy.

The focus of the studies was so-called fume events on board commercial flights - events that fill the cabin with unusual smells but not necessarily visible smoke.

If a room is hot and stuffy, if colleagues are on the phone all the time or a neighbor plays loud music, this can cause stress. The well-being and health of people in living areas and offices depend not only on the climatic conditions, but also on the acoustics. This is where absorbers come into play.

The POMPEJI Arch&Lab project aims to contribute to the understanding of the handling of monuments and the sustainable protection of the monumental heritage.

The aim of the "EeBGuide" is for Europe to apply uniform and binding rules that put working with LCA on a common basis.

Preserving ancient sites and looking after them carefully is one of the great challenges of our time. What better place to do that than in Pompeii? After all, this is the most completely preserved ancient city in the world and therefore has a very rich architectural heritage that must be conserved.

Already today, up to ten percent of Germany's building fabric consists of gypsum. However, it also has a serious disadvantage in terms of recycling.
