Exciting news! Our paper, “Predictions of summertime overheating: Comparison of dynamic thermal models and measurements in synthetically occupied test houses”, co-authored w/ Loughborough University and Hilson Moran is now available online and will be published in BSERT in July 2019. The paper can be viewed at: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0143624419847349
Claire has contributed an article to the RICS Property Journal. The article discusses the effect of the upcoming Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) Regulations on commercial rent reviews and lease renewals.
Inkling are very proud to have been involved in the writing of the new CIBSE TM59 Design methodology for the assessment of overheating risk in homes.
Inkling have acted as peer reviewers for an upcoming RIBA publication on Building Physics. How Buildings Work by Huw Evans is due to be published in July 2016. How Buildings Work provides construction professionals with a clear understanding of the basic mechanisms of physics and how they affect the performance and operation of buildings.
The much anticipated update to the 1998 version of the AM11 CIBSE application manual on Building Performance Modelling was published in November 2015. The manual has been extensively updated reflecting the many changes in the building modelling landscape since the initial release, including advances in computing power and software, changes in legislation and increased industry
Inkling recently co-authored a Zero Carbon Hub publication on assessing overheating in dwellings. This document describes the methodologies and tools currently available for the prediction of overheating risk in dwellings in England and Wales, and poses a challenge to improve on them. The key points highlighted in the report are: – The results obtained from modelling
Inkling have contributed to this report recently published by the Zero Carbon Hub. Why does overheating happen? How can the construction and energy efficiency sector prevent the issue getting worse? What can local and national governments do to support the housing sector? And why does it matter? The report can be downloaded here.
Claire and Susie have recently co-authored a new Zero Carbon Hub publication ‘Assessing Overheating Risk – Evidence Review’, which was launched at EcoBuild 2015. This Evidence Review forms part of a wider evidence gathering exercise being conducted by the Zero Carbon Hub for the ‘Tackling Overheating in Homes’ project. It provides a summary of
