To maintain the expected service life of the built environment, we need better methods for assessing risk and technical solutions that consider the local climate. SINTEF has expertise in:
- Climate loads on buildings and infrastructure
- Local climate adaptation
- Moisture and safety in new and existing buildings
- Durability and service life of materials and constructions
- Green solutions for buildings and urban areas
- Surface water management
- Construction in avalanche-prone environments
- Geotechnical consequences of changes in groundwater level
- Risk and vulnerability analyzes
- Decision-making processes in planning and engineering
- Municipal climate plan work
