About this tender

The funder is procuring a literature review and gap analysis investigating the hygrothermal and dynamic thermal properties of English traditional solid wall construction to support climate change mitigation and adaptation. The project addresses two key research questions: (1) how these properties affect whole-building overheating risk and passive cooling performance, including effects of insulation retrofit and future climate scenarios; and (2) how wall-related effects interact with other whole-building factors such as orientation, solar gain, ventilation, occupancy, moisture condition, …
