Hygrothermal performance of ventilated wooden cladding
2016 - IRG/WP 16-40733
The risk for an attack of wooden claddings by decay and discolouring fungi strongly depends on the moisture and temperature conditions in the building envelope. The design of the cladding has a major influence on its hygrothermal performance. In the present study, different wooden ventilated cladding designs were investigated at a test house in Mid-Norway for four years. The objective was to incre...

Timber reuse and circularity: Insight from Norway's SirkTre and CircWOOD initiatives
2025 - IRG/WP 25-50409
Timber is central to the EU’s decarbonisation strategy, particularly in the building sector, which faces challenges related to climate adaptation, resource constraints, and rising costs. The four-year SirkTRE project aims to improve circularity in the timber industry by developing standards, promoting reuse, and expanding market opportunities. A key focus of SirkTRE is to increase the longevity ...
