Abstract

In order to achieve environmental goals, the impact of the European building stock on the environment needs to be reduced through renovation measures. However, regarding heritage buildings, the choice of measure(s) must simultaneously consider the preservation of cultural and historical values. Besides the impact on such values, energy-efficiency measures can result in increased risks for moisture damage and the diminishment of indoor environmental quality. Furthermore, a measure's impact on a building's environmental print is not self-evident, adding further to the difficulty of choice. This paper synthesizes and reviews existing literature on choosing renovation measures for heritage buildings and literature dealing with choosing the... (More)

In order to achieve environmental goals, the impact of the European building stock on the environment needs to be reduced through renovation measures. However, regarding heritage buildings, the choice of measure(s) must simultaneously consider the preservation of cultural and historical values. Besides the impact on such values, energy-efficiency measures can result in increased risks for moisture damage and the diminishment of indoor environmental quality. Furthermore, a measure's impact on a building's environmental print is not self-evident, adding further to the difficulty of choice. This paper synthesizes and reviews existing literature on choosing renovation measures for heritage buildings and literature dealing with choosing the combination of renovation measures. The paper shows that several publications present strategies/ methodologies for the choice of renovation measures for heritage buildings. However, none are holistic, and none detail the choice from a holistic perspective. Furthermore, several publications have investigated the impact of different combinations of measures on older buildings. However, few consider cultural values. Through this literature review, this paper states the need for a holistic approach to choosing renovation measures for heritage buildings.
