GET.onE.app mobile application: final release

The GET.onE.app application is a user-friendly application to facilitate the design process of the renovation scenarios. The idea is to communicate the possible façade transformations to the inhabitants and let them interact with the various options, controlling the results without imposing the choice, leaving the users free to decide.

GET.onE.app mobile application: report of functionalities

The GET.onE.app application will translate the design process of the renovation scenarios into a user-friendly practice. The idea is to communicate the possible façade transformations to the inhabitants and let them interact with the various options, controlling the results without imposing the choice, leaving the users free to decide.

Exploitation plan of the GET system in the ESCO-Construction Scenario

This document defines a successful exploitation route for the large-scale prototype and validation of the GET system, to ensure the market introduction of the GETs solutions in the ESCO-Construction scenario. This document does not include the Business Plan for the commercial-scale implementation of the GET system.

BIM implementation for energy, seismic and user-oriented design

This document focuses on applying an integrated BIM system to minimize construction time and optimize the energy, the seismic, and the tailored solutions of selected technologies. Structures and seismic retrofitting will be studied and optimized for the specific case study. Consolidated finite elements analysis and earthquake stress on structures will be simulated in a digital environment considering the actual context, design materials, building techniques and code regulations.

Report on the performance of applied measures by using smart meters

This report investigates the theoretical assessment of the performance of applied energy retrofit and seismic enhancement measures for  selected construction site in Athens (Greece) and additionally for two feasibility studies in Reggio Emilia (Italy) and Brasov (Romania).

Report on executive implementation of mock-ups

This document will give an overview of the activities and the first results related to the implementation of a real-scale prototype in which technologies and methods developed within the project will be tested. Lessons learnt, and proposed improvements for future steps are included.

State of the art of deep energy renovation

This document analyses state-of-the-art solutions for deep energy retrofit design methodology using prefabricated systems, thus including integrated technologies and approaches, that have been developed, tested and employed over the last decade of EU-funded projects.

 

Structural and seismic retrofit techniques and projects

The current document provides the state-of-the-art of existing case studies and best practices in the retrofitting of existing buildings with particular reference to users’ safety. It analyses data from pre and post structural renovation, investigation of materials used for renovation and specific renovation techniques. It also discuss consequent and subsequent cost-analysis` indicators to assess the expected gains of the presented techniques.

 

Case studies technical data

This document presents a catalogue on optimal integration techniques and adaptable dry assembled components. It analyses modularity, as a key approach to combine seismic rehabilitation measures with specific structures in combination with energy efficient envelopes and integrated technical services based on renewable energy sources.

 

Parametric modelling

This report elaborates the parametric model definition for the two case studies, the Groningen region in The Netherlands and the Mediterranean area (Italy/Greece/Romania). Those parametric models are focused on giving an indication of which buildings need and which buildings do not need seismic strengthening.

 

Abacus

This report develops tailored abacuses in the sense of architectural and structural components for customized, pre-assembled facade modules. The aim is to integrate the combination of the selected innovative energy and environmental technologies in the specific architectural design of each case study taking into account user satisfaction, building quality, aesthetics and internal functionality in modifications that are attractive and functional for the final customers – users (multi-benefit approach).

 

Monitoring protocols and evaluation

This report discusses the results of a review in existing monitoring protocols applied for the measurement of the energy performance and the environmental conditions of the buildings in the frame of Pro-GET-OnE. It also assesses the monitoring results of the pre-construction period of the case study in Athens.

 

Communication Plan

This is the final version of the Dissemination and Communication Plan, which fixes and revises the communication strategy and the corresponding communication and dissemination activities of the project.
