Research Unit of Building Physics

Welcome to the website of the research unit building physics!

With our research and teaching, we help in the transformation to a climate-neutral, resilient and affordable built environment.

Our research focuses range from the development of simulation models for neighborhoods, buildings and components to the development of recyclable building materials.

For our research we operate a laboratory where we can measure how materials, components and small buildings behave under acoustic, thermal and hygric loads.

For the power supply of huts in alpine terrain, diesel generators have been used until now. At the Sonnschienhütte, a PV system with battery storage…

On October 5, 2023, the tenth Building Physics Day took place at the TU Wien. This transdisciplinary conference was attended by 130 experts who…
