QualitySysVillab - Protecting sustainable qualities in neighbourhood developments through process control and new digital methods
Development of a process concept to bring sustainable qualities in neighbourhood development from the intention and announcement level to the built reality. The process is supported by digital methods of energy and structural design and evaluated in the context of a case study.
KliB40-Climate Compass: Climate-neutral Bregenz 2040, climate compass for the structured participation of stakeholders and the citizens
The "KliB40 Climate Compass" supports Bregenz on its path to climate neutrality by 2040 through transparent development, selection, and monitoring of measures. It facilitates the coordination of climate protection activities and actively involves stakeholders. By evaluating existing software solutions, the project ensures optimal digital support for planning and implementing the city's climate strategy.
KLAIR - Dynamic Microclimate Intelligence for Sustainable Urban Development
KLAIR develops an AI-powered, dynamic urban climate map that simulates microclimatic stress as well as future scenarios such as greening or densification. By integrating climate, structural and health data, the tool enables evidence-based evaluation of adaptation measures and their health impacts. In this way, KLAIR supports cities of all sizes in climate-resilient, socially equitable and cost-efficient planning.
ClimateCare - Green rating for climate-vulnerable groups in urban areas
The project utilizes climate and satellite data to analyse the relationship between urban green spaces and the well-being of heat-vulnerable populations in ten Austrian pioneer cities. The project delivers data-backed recommendations and investment rankings for greening measures, such as rooftop and façade gardens, to maximize health benefits and cost-effectiveness.
NEB Resources - Potentials in the Existing Urban Fabric for a Socially Inclusive, Circular and Climate-Just Matzleinsdorf
NEB Resources collaborates with residents to develop a feasible and politically supported transformation concept for a socially inclusive, circular, and climate-friendly Matzleinsdorf neighborhood in Vienna's Margareten district. Co-research, temporary interventions, and prototypes activate material and immaterial resources, thereby transforming physical spaces and social relationships.
Digi-HBV - Topology-optimised reinforced concrete slabs with digital formwork and reinforcement
Digi-HBV delivers a reusable, material-efficient floor system that combines ecological impact with industrial feasibility. Core innovations include interlocking, CNC-milled timber dowels for the timber–concrete interface, demountable joints to ensure in-plane (diaphragm) action, and a generative, LCA-coupled file-to-factory workflow. Full-scale load tests verify load-bearing capacity, durability, and demountability. The outcome: at least 50% lower manufacturing emissions, significantly shorter construction times, and a scalable product for climate-neutral, circular construction.
