Scars in buildings: the thermal bridge
Andrew
In this post we talk about thermal bridges as areas of low thermal resistance of the building envelope and how it affects its energy efficiency. Do you know the classification of the different types? Discover all the most relevant aspects by clicking.
The coefficient of performance (COP) of heat pumps and its importance in the efficiency of heating/cooling equipment in sustainable buildings
Sebastian
In this article we will cover a summary of all the important aspects about the COP (coefficient of performance), and how it can be an ally in a sustainable strategy.

Steel and concrete, concrete and steel. The structuralist paradox
Andrew
Steel and concrete are two materials widely used in construction. In this article we analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both.
The Aerothermal. Basic concepts
Sebastian
Aerothermal energy is an air conditioning system that allows, through heat exchange, to obtain energy from the air to convert it into heating, cooling or hot water using a single piece of equipment. Do you want to know how it works? We tell you.
DB HS 6 – Protection against radon. Basic concepts
Richard
Radon is a radioactive gas that can be found in high concentrations in indoor spaces. In this post we tell you characteristics, the effects on health and how to treat it from a construction point of view.
BIM dimensions
Richard
In BIM representation, information is classified into 5 dimensions – 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D and 7D. Each dimension determines the degree of information that is incorporated into the BIM model. In this post we explain them all to you. Forward!
Electrical self-consumption and the energy efficiency of household appliances
Richard
Do you know the meaning of energy labels? What self-consumption sources are possible to use in construction? This post interests you.
