The 7th International BUILDAIR-Symposium „Building and Ductwork Air Tightness in Practice“ this year addresses to the experienced practitioners as well as to the beginners in this topic. As usual we will impart practical oriented user knowledge and the intensive exchange between the participants.
The BUILDAIR-Symposium and the general meeting of the Association for Air Tightness in the Building Industry (FLiB) (May 10 2012) take place on sequent days at the same place. The FLiB also offers a lecture program which is matched with the symposium to complement one another optimally.
The current EPBD makes it necessary to plan the air tightness of the building envelope and to design it professionally to achieve the energetic aims or to obtain submitted subsidies. This is especially important for German KfW 55 and 40 buildings, passive houses and nearly zero-energy buildings. With view to the EPBD it is essential that handcrafts, energy consultants, planners and architects are well schooled in this topic.
At the same time, highly efficient buildings must have a ventilation concept which ensures hygienic air exchange while preventing mould and dampness and minimizing indoor air pollutants.

Topics at the conference: air tightness, building thermography, ventilation, humidity and indoor air pollutants. 
Contributions are welcome which deal with this topics.
