Abstract :

[en] Building on rooftops has been evident in many European cities. However, there is no specialized code providing guidelines to achieve high performance roof stacking construction. Accordingly, we aim to support the decision-making on cost-optimal zero-energy roof stacking when selecting glazing parameters. A reference model for a passive house made of timber construction has been developed. A set of variables have been identified with definitive ranges based on previous literature and the available materials in the Belgian market. Then, the objective functions for energy and cost have been defined for the sensitivity analysis. Finally, sensitivity analysis has been conducted, in which variables are evaluated individually based on their significance on energy consumption and cost has been.
