Description

Description (EN):

The focus of the GreenSan project is directed to the topics of resources, efficiency and quality in renovation. These topics should of course influence the planning and implementation of renovation projects in the future, and thereby ensure the comprehensive sustainability of projects. Conditions (accommodation quality, mobility behaviour and land and energy consumption) will all be literally cemented in the long term via construction decisions. The time scales for decisions and implementation are long; once construction measures are applied, another 30-40 years often pass before the execution of new measures. It is all the more important that potential is tapped and implemented in the best possible way in building renovation. Unfortunately, these have been far from sufficiently exploited due to the absence of an integral, cross-generational view (key words - shortage of land and an ageing society) and a quality-led approach. Nor have public and private money, resources and workforces been deployed to their best. This not only affects the area of the project but it is also a phenomenon that can be observed generally. The focus of the GreenSan project is on the topics of resources, efficiency and quality in renovation. This innovative approach clearly distinguishes the project from projects and measures previously carried out in the field of construction, whereby the focus was on renewable energy and energy-efficiency, and which left out other aspects. This is therefore about the integration of these topics into the training and further training of construction and energy specialists • As a means of qualification • To counter the lack of specialists in the field of construction • To contribute to quality assurance in construction • To ensure the required expertise is available for good sustainable renovations. This means that new ways are also explored online. E-learning and webinars represent a cost-effective range for further training that can be conducted anywhere, and which should above all facilitate access for young people too. On the other hand, the initiation and preparation of best practice examples with a focus on the abovementioned topics should demonstrate alternative implementation options. The data derived from this can be included in the development of databases, tools and evaluation options, and ensure they can be applied in practice. These tools enable the inclusion of the topics of resources and efficiency in the daily work of advisers and planners, and ultimately facilitate consultation with customers and implementation in practice. Public relations measures also form a framework for the project, ensuring the dissemination of the GreenSan topic areas to end clients as well as to other market participants and decision-makers. At the same time, these measures help to create awareness of the relevance of resources in the field of construction. It is only through the joint consideration of the efficiency of resources, economy and quality – with a view to developing accommodation and the long-term and adaptable usability of the objectives – that sustainable renovations can be achieved.

Description (DE):

Der Fokus des Projekes GreenSan richtet sich auf die Themenbereich Ressourcen, Wirtschaftlichkeit und Qualität in der Sanierung. Diese Themen sollen zukünftig selbstverständlich in die Planung und Umsetzung von Sanierungsvorhaben miteinfließen und somit die umfassende Nachhaltigkeit der Vorhaben garantieren. Über Bauentscheidungen werden Gegebenheiten (Quartiersqualität, Mobilitätsverhalten, Boden- und Energieverbrauch) langfristig wortwörtlich einzementiert. Die Zeithorizonte für Entscheidung und Umsetzung sind lange; sind Baumaßnahmen erst umgesetzt, vergehen oft weitere 30-40 Jahre bis zur Umsetzung neuer Maßnahmen. Umso wichtiger ist es, dass die Potentiale in der Gebäudesanierung erschlossen und bestmöglich umgesetzt werden. Leider werden diese aus Mangel an ganzheitlicher, generationenübergreifender Betrachtung (Stichwort Bodenverknappung und alternde Gesellschaft) und qualitätsvollem Vorgehen noch viel zu wenig ausgeschöpft. Öffentliches und privates Geld, Ressourcen und Arbeitskraft werden so nicht zum Besten verwendet. Dies betrifft nicht nur das Projektgebiet, sondern ist ein allgemein beobachtbares Phänomen. Der Fokus des Projekts GreenSan richtet sich auf die Themenbereiche Ressourcen, Wirtschaftlichkeit und Qualität in der Sanierung. Dieser innovative Ansatz hebt das Projekt klar von bisher gesetzten Projekten und Maßnahmen im Baubereich ab, deren Fokus auf Erneuerbarer Energie und Energieeffizienz lag und andere Aspekte außen vor ließen. Dabei geht es zum einen um die Integration dieser Themen in die Aus- und Weiterbildung von Bau- und Energiefachleuten als Mittel zur Qualifizierung um dem Fachkräftemangel im Baubereich entgegenzuwirken als Beitrag zur Qualitätssicherung am Bau damit das nötige Know-how für gute, nachhaltige Sanierungen vorhanden ist. Hierbei werden auch neue Wege durch die Nutzung des Internets gegangen. E-Learning und Webinare stellen ein kostengünstiges und standortunabhängiges Angebot für Weiterbildung dar, das vor allem auch jungen Menschen den Zugang erleichtern soll. Zum anderen soll die Initiierung und Aufbereitung von Best Practice Beispielen mit dem Fokus auf oben stehenden Themenbereichen dem Markt alternative Umsetzungsmöglichkeiten aufzeigen. Die dabei gewonnenen Daten können bei der Entwicklung von Datenbanken, Tools und Bewertungsmöglichkeiten mit eingearbeitet werden und garantieren den Praxisbezug. Diese Werkzeuge ermöglichen die Inkludierung der Themenfelder Ressourcen und Wirtschaftlichkeit in die tägliche Arbeit der Berater und Planer und erleichtern schließlich die Kundenberatung und die Umsetzung in der Praxis. Maßnahmen der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit bilden schließlich einen Rahmen zum Projekt, der die Verbreitung der GreenSan Themenbereiche hin zu den Endkunden, aber auch zu anderen Marktteilnehmern und Entscheidungsträgern sichert. Gleichzeitig helfen diese Maßnahmen, ein Bewusstsein für die Relevanz von Ressourcen im Baubereich zu schaffen. Nur durch die gemeinsame Betrachtung von Ressourceneffizienz, Wirtschaftlichkeit und Qualität – mit Blick auf die Quartiersentwicklung und die langfristige und anpassbare Nutzbarkeit der Objekte – lassen sich nachhaltige Sanierungen realisieren.

Achievements (EN):

The GreenSan project focused in particular on quality assurance and cost-effectiveness in the refurbishment, the meaningful use of resources and the life cycle assessment of buildings. These topics should, of course, be incorporated into the planning and implementation of refurbishment projects in the future and thus guarantee the comprehensive sustainability of the projects. The main focus of GreenSan’s content was the realisation that sustainable renovations can only be realised by looking at resource efficiency, efficiency and quality. In this context, long-term and adaptable usage concepts, re-consolidation through further construction of the stock and the integration into the district development are further aspects of sustainable development. The content priorities in the areas of research and development, education and public relations included: Studies on cost-effectiveness assessments, life cycle costs and quality assurance based on model projects raising awareness of the meaningful use of resources in the construction sector through the development of evaluation tools and databases and their dissemination the development and dissemination of concepts for the creation of cost-effective housing by means of re-consolidation networking and training of professionals as well as information and consulting services for builders In 29 work packages, a wide range of measures, tools and strategies have been developed to support the dissemination and application of knowledge both in the professional community and among private builders. Some activities and results from the GreenSan project are presented below. Cost-effectiveness calculation The excel tools “econ calc” and “econ calc light” serve to calculate individual energy efficiency measures and to compare the life cycle costs of building variants of different energy quality. Life cycle assessments simply calculate With the online tool “eco2soft” of baubook, life cycle assessments for buildings can be created quickly and easily and the costs for construction, renewal and disposal can be clearly displayed. wohngsund The quality seal wohngsgsund for the certification of healthy residential buildings guarantees that the building materials used in the interior are low-emission and ecological. The basis is a catalogue of requirements for construction products that may be used. The https://www.baubook.at/wohngsund/ database supports the selection of low-emission building materials and provides know-how on pollutants. Best practice: The refurbishment gallery Successful, exemplary old building renovations are presented in detail and practical on the Internet portals https://sanierungsgalerie.de/. Educational events A large number of events, workshops and seminars as well as excursions for professionals on the topic of renovations of non-residential buildings and residential buildings were organised by the participating partner organisations. The conclusion was a virtual congress with specialist exchange and a variety of inputs from all research partners. Public relations and media work Numerous websites, brochures, guides, information and topic sheets as well as podcasts were developed and published to raise awareness and as a basis for planning and performing construction professionals.
