Deliverables

Documents, reports (4)

Digitalization Requirements and KPIs

Definition of set of requirements for digitalization approaches in historical buildings across EU, setting-up of the co-innovation environment to assess user comfort and satisfaction, definition of the list of KPIs to evaluate the performance of the installed system (Task 1.1)

Interactions strategies between users and smart buildings control systems

Analysis of different modes of interactions and data flow between building users and smart controls in order to provide guidelines on how to design and implement seamless and effective data flow between buildings and occupants, and provide the data and information to build the user archetypes (T2.3) in terms of personal control, information, convenience and interaction in smart buildings. (Task 2.1)

Modelling Handbook

Report describing the requested model quality and available information in real buildings (Task 3.1)

SMARTeeSTORY SRI-based assessment tool for historic buildings

Development of a web based tool to assess the SRI level for historic buildings and evaluate techno-economic feasibility of digitalization interventions. The tool will be divided in three main sections: baseline assessment, definition of target and objectives, solution for SRI upgrades (Task 1.5)

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Dissemination and Communication Strategy and Plan

Description of the strategies to disseminate and communicate project results including D&C material (website, poster, flyers, etc.) (Task 6.1)
