4.00 AIVC Activities in Relation to Standards, Regulations and Implementation in Practice

Peter Wouters, Ph.D., Belgian Building Research Institute
The large majority of countries have standards, guidelines and/or regulations related to ventilation and airtightness in buildings. In most cases, they are autonomous documents, but in some cases they are part of minimum indoor climate requirements imposed as part of energy performance requirements. What is the situation on the ground? What procedures exist in case of non-compliance? To what extent are these specifications driving the industry? Do they stimulate innovation? Are they a barrier for innovation? These topics will be covered in the presentation.
