Energy-Efficient Renovation Principles for Prefabricated Timber-Frame Residential Buildings

The timber construction along with the use of suitable and correctly oriented glazing surfaces, whose thermal and strength properties have been considerably improved over the years, represents a great potential in residential and public building construction. However, necessary renovations of the ol...
