In this paper the findings from a long-term field study of the thermal performance of a circa 1950s dwelling are presented and discussed. The study aimed at evaluating the robustness of the QUB method in the field under UK climatic conditions. A seri...

© 2020 The integration of vernacular strategies in Myanmar housing seems to have remained remarkably resilient and is still the norm even in modern dwellings. However, no regard is given to the possible impact of climate change. Using one-year monito...

Occupant action patterns regarding spatial and human factors in office environments (2020)
Journal Article
Marín-Restrepo, L., Trebilcock, M., & Gillott, M. (2020). Occupant action patterns regarding spatial and human factors in office environments. Energy and Buildings, 214, Article 109889. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2020.109889

Since occupant behaviour impacts the energy performance of buildings, its study is relevant in order to bridge the performance gap. While the factors influencing occupant behaviour have been established, most studies have focused on those factors tha...
