Накратко на български
Старите сгради от неармирана зидария се подобряват чрез комбиниране на термоизолация и специални текстилни композити за укрепване. Това помага за по-добрата защита на хората при земетресения и намалява вредните емисии чрез по-ниска консумация на енергия.

Seismic Plus EneRgy Upgrading of Masonry Buildings using Advanced Materials
This project has been inspired by the always more demanding need to upgrade the existing unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings due to their poor seismic performance resulting in severe human and economic losses and their low energy performance which significantly increases their energy consumption. These traditional structures are far from the levels of the current standards for seismic capacity and energy consumption and suffer from deterioration due to ageing of materials, environmental degradation, experience of several earthquakes and lack of maintenance. Therefore, this project tried to confront both seismic and energy deficiencies simultaneously for the most common traditional URM building typologies in the context of current EU regulations for building energy savings and protection of cultural heritage. This combined retrofitting can be realised by integrating advanced strengthening and insulating materials (Fig. 1), and provides several benefits to society and the environment: (i) Safer structures secure a higher protection of human lives and the built cultural heritage. (ii) Higher energy efficiency reduces dramatically gas emissions and thus, protects the environment. (iii) A concurrent retrofitting achieves cost efficiency reducing the payback time for an affordable investment. SPEctRUM explored a hybrid structural-plus-energy retrofitting solution that combines inorganic textile-based composites with thermal insulation systems for URM buildings to meet all these needs. Analytical models, design solutions and a large-scale investigation across Europe were carried out to boost the implementation of the proposed system.

Цел на проекта
This project aims to develop innovative techniques integrating advanced materials for the simultaneous seismic and energy retrofitting of the European masonry building stock. Upgrading the existing masonry EU buildings is becoming progressively more important due to: (1) their poor seismic performance during recent earthquakes (i.e. Italy, Greece) that have resulted in significant economic losses, severe injuries and loss of human lives; and (2) their low energy performance which increases significantly their energy consumption (buildings are responsible for 40% of EU energy consumption). Since replacing the existing buildings with new is prohibitively expensive and has also huge environmental and social impact, their lifetime extension requires considering both seismic and energy retrofitting. It is noted that the annual cost of repair and maintenance of existing European building stock is estimated to be about 50% of the total construction budget, currently standing at more than €300 billion. To achieve cost effectiveness, SPEctRUM explores a novel approach, proposing for the first time a hybrid structural-plus-energy retrofitting solution which combines inorganic textile-based composites with thermal insulation systems for masonry building envelopes. The effectiveness of the proposed retrofitting system will be validated experimentally and analytically. Moreover, a common approach for the buildings performance classification will be proposed, allowing to assess whether energy efficiency and disaster-resilient practices should be integrated. Eventually, draft guidelines and recommendations for determining future research design on concurrent seismic and energy retrofitting of EU masonry buildings envelopes will be proposed.
