This research project aimed on checking the verification-methods of the German energy saving ordinance 2007 (EnEV 2007) within the scope of a monitoring on specific buildings using the calculation methods of DIN V 18599 (German standard). The examinations were executed both for the so-called detailed proceedings and for the simplified proceedings on the basis of a single-zone-model.
The monitoring of the detailed proceedings was carried out by using the simplifications for the zoning rules of buildings which are available and accounted in the DIN V 18599 and an announcement of the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs (BMVBS). The monitoring of the simplified proceedings was executed based on the stage of development published in the EnEV 2007. In the research project the present simplifications concerning the zoning-rules of buildings within the verification methods should be evaluated as well as further possibilities for simplification should be investigated. Both, the work time expenditure should be reduced and simultaneously the compliance with the requirements from the ordinance should be guaranteed.
According to the requirements of the project a suggestion for suitable example buildings for carrying out the monitoring was to work out as well as an ascertainment of the documents required for the plan (building data, furnished proofs etc.) had to be done. Despite intensive efforts merely three calculations of energy performance could be found, therefore it is recommended for future research projects to provide ready example calculations or pattern buildings.
All in all the monitoring was executed with seventeen buildings. In terms of making statistically proofed statements, the number of examined buildings is too small. It is therefore recommended to expand the examinations on a larger scale.
The monitoring of the detailed proceedings was executed under use of simplifications which are available and accounted in the DIN V 18599 and an announcement of the BMVBS. Nine simplifications were examined at a total of seventeen example buildings. Key findings from the examination are:
In the monitoring of the simplified proceedings the applicability, the boundary conditions to be complied with and the possibility for the extension of the application field were determined.
With regard to the simplification of the zoning procedure analyses in direction of a double-zone-model were realized. However, only three of the seventeen example buildings match with the field of application. Reasons for the small number of suitable buildings are either:
The sample in this examination is therefore too small to derive meaningful results. Because of the low application in the context of this research project it is suspected that a double-zone-model does not have any relevance in practice. Rather seem comprehensive, but easily understandable, supports for the zoning of buildings in the form of a practical guide to be necessary.
