Written guidelines for decision making concerning the possible use of internal insulation in historic buildings

This report is one of five deliverables related to WP6 ‘Development and evaluation of guidelines and web-based preliminary assessment tool‘. The prime objective of WP6 is to develop and to assess written and web-based guidelines and a web tool (including a feasibility study of possible input and output data) for renovation of historic buildings with internal insulation. This deliverable contains the written guidelines, referring to Task 6.1, consisting of a guideline for setting the goal of applying internal insulation (Section 3), a guideline for deciding whether a building is suitable for internal insulation (Section 4), a guideline for selecting an internal insulation system (Section 5) and a guideline for evaluating the energy saving potential and the environmental impact (Section6). The written guidelines are also made accessible through a web-site, described in deliverable D6.3.
