Indoor Climate Quality of Buildings

CO2 as Indicator of Quality of Indoor Environment
Josef Chybík, Adam Guzdek
Inner environment is exposed to a number of effects. Out of all the components which form the in-house climate we will focus on the presence of carbon dioxide. We will monitor its role in shaping the environment and the effect on the human body. Despite the fact that the knowledge of the CO2 concentration is connected with a ventilation demand, it does not receive a necessary response in the vast majority of residential buildings. This knowledge is under very strict requirements reflected not only in design, but also in operation of energy saving – passive houses, where compliance of mandatory hygiene criteria is not prevented even by the tightness of the envelope [8] [18].

 

Materials and Products for Buildings

Decreasing flammability of EPS insulations
František Vörös
EPS have an important use in construction, mainly as an insulation. For most of the applications, fire safety requirements are foreseen at a national level. Raw material producers solve these requirements with so called self-extinguish EPS products, ie. products with decreased flammability. Historical and innovative activities of applications for EPS extinguishers are being described.

Clean fresh air for thermal comfort in residential buildings

 

Known unknown products for solving ETICS details
Václav Hadrava
Not so small amount of relatively ordinarily sold bars for ETICS, during presentations and for students of the field, is completely new. Nevertheless these bars have been produced and used for number of years and have an important function in ETICS. This article discusses selected products that could be classified as „a traditional innovation".

 

Projection, Theory, Surveys

Education – Conferences – Reviews

Insulation of buildings seen in a conference mirror – part III
František Vörös
Findings from an expanded plastics conference will be introduced in this section. Further knowledge from local conferences and information from a roof organisation of producers and manufacturers of EPS – EUMEPS about a new name for EPS will be shown.
