This was achieved through concept design, dynamic thermal modelling and testing of a number of potentially viable systems and concepts. A significant programme of thermal simulation modelling was undertaken utilising the thermally equivalent slab (TES) concept to model the passive thermal capacity effect of profiled, composite metal floor decks. It is apparent from the modelling results that thermal mass is a highly complex phenomenon which is highly dependent upon building type, occupancy patterns, climate and many other aspects of the building design and servicing strategy. The ATM systems developed, both conceptually and for prototype testing, focussed on water-cooled composite slabs, the Cofradal floor system and the phase change material (PCM) Energain. In addition to laboratory testing of prototypes, whole building monitoring was undertaken at the Kubik building in Spain and the RWTH test building in Germany. Advanced thermal modelling was also undertaken to estimate the likely benefits of the ATM concept designs developed and for comparison with the test results. In addition to thermal testing, structural tests were conducted on composite floor specimens incorporating embedded water pipes.

It addresses basic building physics performance at a laboratory and full-scale level, and the preparation of design guidance for commercial, industrial and residential buildings. It includes the development of design tools to assist users in assessing whole-building performance, and calibrates these tools against whole-building measurements, which will be obtained from this research. Opportunities for renewable energy and other energy-saving features will be assessed. This project focuses on objectives that are of particular interest for the design of new steel constructions regarding energy efficiency. ETHICS investigates the as-built performance by on-site tests regarding air tightness and heat transfer properties of the building envelope and by monitoring the energy consumption and thermal comfort of selected up-to-date steel buildings. As energy efficiency is a key requirement for design and construction of buildings in the future, this project provides well-founded scientific data, which prove the high energy performance of current steel constructions and work out details for further improvements to maintain and extend the position of steel products in the construction sector.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KuhnhenneDoeringPyschnyetal.2012, author = {Kuhnhenne, Markus and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Pyschny, Dominik and Feldmann, Markus}, title = {Energy efficient sandwich construction}, series = {Proceedings of the VI International Congress on Architectural Envelopes : 20.6. - 22.6.2012, San Sebastian, Spain}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the VI International Congress on Architectural Envelopes : 20.6. - 22.6.2012, San Sebastian, Spain}, publisher = {ICAE}, organization = {International Congress on Architectural Envelopes <6, 2012, San Sebastian>}, pages = {277 -- 285}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SpasovDoeringGriffin2007, author = {Spasov, Yulian and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Griffin, Allan}, title = {Exploiting the thermal mass in an energy efficient building - a comparison exercise between IES Apache and TRNSYS models}, series = {Clima 2007 WellBeing Indoors: 9th Rehva World Congress, 10-14 June 2007, Helsinki, Finland : proceedings}, booktitle = {Clima 2007 WellBeing Indoors: 9th Rehva World Congress, 10-14 June 2007, Helsinki, Finland : proceedings}, address = {Helsinki}, isbn = {978-952-99898-2-9}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DoeringKuhnhenneFeldmann2011, author = {D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Kuhnhenne, Markus and Feldmann, Markus}, title = {Floor systems - key elements for sustainable multi-storey buildings}, series = {SB11 Helsinki World Sustainable Building Conference : 18. - 21.10.2011}, booktitle = {SB11 Helsinki World Sustainable Building Conference : 18. - 21.10.2011}, organization = {World Sustainable Building Conference <2011, Helsinki>}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @incollection{FeldmannDoeringPyschny2016, author = {Feldmann, M. and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Pyschny, D.}, title = {Floor systems; Sustainabilty analyses and assessments of steel bridges}, series = {Sustainable steel buildings : a practical guide for structures and envelopes}, booktitle = {Sustainable steel buildings : a practical guide for structures and envelopes}, publisher = {Wiley Blackwell}, address = {Chichester, West Sussex}, isbn = {978-1-118-74079-8 (PDF)}, pages = {198 -- 223}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DoeringFeldmannKuhnhenneetal.2008, author = {D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Feldmann, Markus and Kuhnhenne, Markus and Hellberg, Jan}, title = {Implementing a thermal activation system into a light-weight steel deck element}, series = {Eurosteel 2008 : 5th European Conference on Steel and Composite Structures ; research, practice, new materials ; 3rd to 5th September 2008, Graz, Austria / ed. by Robert Ofner ...}, booktitle = {Eurosteel 2008 : 5th European Conference on Steel and Composite Structures ; research, practice, new materials ; 3rd to 5th September 2008, Graz, Austria / ed. by Robert Ofner ...}, publisher = {ECCS, European Convention for Construction Steelwork}, address = {Brussels}, organization = {Eurosteel <5, 2008, Graz>}, isbn = {92-0147-000-90}, pages = {941 -- 946}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DoeringSedlacek2004, author = {D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Sedlacek, Gerhard}, title = {Improvement of thermal comfort in light weight buildings made of steel with new concepts for slab systems}, series = {10th Nordic Steel Construction Conference, Copenhagen, Denmark 7-9.
