Factors influencing the rating of low-rise wooden houses as "green" buildings

Abstract

The article presents a program of scientific and practical research on the assessment of "green"technologies in wooden low-rise housing construction in the field of energy efficiency and resource conservation. The objects of research are two identical experimental buildings built in 2020 in Murmansk and Petrozavodsk using different technologies of wooden housing construction and various thermal insulation materials. Attention is focused on assessing the factors affecting the energy efficiency class and the internal microclimate of a wooden building, taking into account the changing environmental conditions and operating modes of buildings in cold climates. The stages of the study were determined, the tasks for each type of experiment and the expected results were formulated. Methods fixed in the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation are considered as the main ones. A method for monitoring the parameters of the internal microclimate, environment and temperature and humidity in the layers of the enclosing structures of model objects is proposed and implemented. The implementation of the research program will allow assessing the influence of the factors under study on the energy efficiency class of a wooden building and developing recommendations for the design, construction and operation of low-rise wooden buildings in a cold climate, taking into account the criteria of "green"construction.
