Dynamic briefing for active roofing
conference paper
Traditional roofs have primary, passive, functions such as protection against rain, wind, snow etc..
Nowadays, roofs are more and more used as preferred location for additional functions such as
photovoltaic systems, roof lights and safety devices. New approaches, on designing as well as
assembling the roof, are necessary; tools for innovative roofs or Active Roofs. New ways of
exchanging knowledge is therefore neccesary. This research offers an integral approach for
knowledge exchange which is dynamic – related to the specific situation. Based on a domain
dependant design method, complemented with morphological matrices, a toolbox for dynamic
briefing is developed. In order to implement and train the knowledge for the several users, ‘learning
by doing’ workshops are proposed. The knowledge generated in this project will benefit the Building
Services research and education at Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, Delft University of
Technology and the TNO Building and Construction Research. The developed methodology will also
be implemented in the 6th European framework program; EUR-ACTIVE ROOF-er, with partners in
industry and professional organizations throughout Europe
