The most important functions to be named in this context include thermal insulation, control of solar gains, daylight supply, ventilation, noise control and, to a continuously increasing extent, also energy generation (either by using solar thermal collectors or façade-integrated PV systems). Moreover, the façade also essentially determines the architectural appearance of a building, creating its characteristic look and its distinct, individual identity. Our symposium “More than just Façades!“ provides a suitable forum for experts to examine and discuss the multifaceted topic of innovative façade solutions. Special importance will be placed upon issues of building physics, focusing on approaches to implement appropriate physical solutions.

Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP
Building physics is one of the keys to a successful building project. The Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP focuses its work on research, development, testing, demonstration and consulting in the various fields of building physics. These include noise c ontrol and sound insulation in buildings, the optimization of auditoria acoustics and solutions for improving energy efficiency and optimizing lighting technology. Fraunhofer IBP’s work also covers issues of climate control and the indoor environment, hygiene and
health protection, building material emissions, weatherproofing and protection against heat and moisture, preservation of building structures and the conservation of historic monuments.

Flyer "MORE THAN JUST FAÇADES!" You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
