Building Assessment

Roots of CESBA

• The building sector is a cornerstone of EU policy targets

• Plethora and mismatch of building regulations

• Nearly 100 different building assessment systems in Europe


Building Assessment


Building Assessment

Roots of CESBA

• 2009 Project ENERBUILD-Tool, 2011 Project CEC5-Tool

• 2011 starting an European bottom up exchange process

• 2011 October: conference in Brussels with actors from different EU-

projects ==> need for harmonization

• 2012 October 1st CESBA conference in Brussels ==> path for CESBA

• 2013 October 2nd CESBA Sprint workshop in Vorarlberg ==>

„Preparation of CESBA guide and CESBA Statement“

• 2014 July 1st 3rd CESBA Sprint worskhop in Turin ==> „Expanding

CESBA“

1. The user first!

2. Sustainability

3. Regional Contextualization

4. Comparability

5. Mass-oriented

6. Simple to use

7. Open source

Building Assessment

Indicators for a generic tool

KPI on Building Scale

•Non-renewable primary energy use

•Renewable primary energy use

•CO2 emissions

•Indoor air quality

•Thermal comfort

•Building life cycle costs

•Reused or recycled materials

•Water consumption

•Solid waste

•User involvement

•Monitoring and optimization of operation

KPI on Neighbourhood Scale

•Process and planning quality

•Participation and management of neighbourhood

•Total primary energy use and renewable primary energy use

•Exploitation of local renewable resources (wind, biomass, sun light)

•Water management

•Social and functional diversity

•Access to public transport

•Connection to existing infrastructure

•Life cycle costs

•Cost development of building and the neighbourhood

KPI for European Macro Regions

•Local materials (all regions)

•Biodiversity (all regions)

•Water for irrigation (Mediterranean area)

•etc.


Building Assessment

„Having scoured the globe we were unanimous in our decision to name Vorarlberg as the most progressive part of the planet when it comes to new architecture“ wallpaper, September 2000

"Vorarlberg was, is and could serve as a laboratory, research institution for the architecture in Europe. “ Marie-Helene Contal, Deputy Director of the French Architecture Institute, February 2002


Feedback from abroad

Inhabitants: ca. 370.000 (growing)

Area: 2.601 km² (living area: 603 km²)

Municipalities: 96

Export: 50,6%

Unemployment rate: 5,6 %

Annual new buildings: approx. 1.000 buildings with approx. 3.000 flats

Vorarlberger Building School - History

early success: Baroque Master Builder, high building culture in the valleys

from 1960, first phase: Islands of political and cultural opposition

from 1980, second phase: Extension of the field of work on commercial and public buildings

from 1990, third phase: building culture is

regional mission statement

Today: Scene, laboratory of architecture

ÖVP results of state elections Vorarlberg

Green party enters with 13 %

• 2007 Initiation of a broad process Energy Autonomy Vorarlberg

• 2009 Unanimous decision of all 4 parliament parties:

energy autonomy on state level until 2050

• 2011 Unanimous decision of all 4 parliament parties:

101 grandchildren suitable measures

• 2012 Execution of tasks, projects…=> Building pass for public

buildings (KGA)


Energy autonomy Vorarlberg


Building pass for public buildings (KGA)

Since 2000 Eco-guideline for planning and construction of

buildings

2005 – 2008 „eco-construction and procurement in the lake of

Constance region“

Since 2006 Advisory service „sustainable construction for public

buildings in Vorarlberg“ Interreg IIIB project NENA

Since 2009 Development of a „building pass for public buildings

(certification)“ Interreg IVB-project „Enerbuild“

2010 Creation of 6 certification bodies, pretesting of the

tool with 9 buildings


KGA Vorarlberg

2010 - 2011 Testing of 48 buildings on ENERBUILD- standard

together with 9 ENERBUILD partner regions

Since 2011

KGA-tool (regional adoption of CESBA generic tool)

for assessment of public buildings on community

level for state subsidies (up to 8% of the construction

costs)

In 2015 standardized application of KGA-tool for all public

buildings on community and on state level

• Strengthen the ecological building method

• Quality management in public buildings

• Quality assurance document

• Advisory service for municipalities

• Control of subsidies

• Reasons for municipalities to take part are:

- 1st financial

- 2nd appreciation
