Facade of Ryesgade 30 (Source: Dorthe Krogh)
This typical residential building from the end of the 19th century, was outdated and in need for renovation. The indoor climate was poor and the energy consumption quite high. After a renovation that included new windows, thermal insulation on walls and ceiling, improved air-tightness, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, and photovoltaic, the building achieved a 63% reduction in energy demand.

BESCHREIBUNG

The Ryesgade 30 property on Indre Nørrebro is a typical Copenhagen property from 1896 built for habitation. It is built in red and yellow bricks in six floors plus unheated basement and attic floors. The built-up area was 460 m² and the total heated area was 2760 m² divided into three entrances, 30A, 30B and 30C with 12, 10 and 10 apartments respectively and it has commercial premises on the ground floor. The building has a conservation value equivalent of class 4 in the SAVE classification system due to the time-typical but worn, facade with horizontal cornices and strips.
Städtebaulicher Kontext
Inner Nørrebro is a city district in Copenhagen. It covers an area of 1.72 km², has a population of 31,046 and a population density of 18,057 per km², making it the second most densely populated district in Copenhagen (taken from Wikipedia).

Erhaltungszustand

Erhaltungszustand der Gebäudehülle
Before the renovation, the building had become outdated and from the toilet/bathrooms and kitchens there was originally natural ventilation, but in most apartments the ducts were either blocked or did not work. All except one apartment had a toilet, some had a bathroom, and some had a shower in a separate room or the kitchen. The load-bearing structure consists of wooden beams and solid wall. The thickness of the facade masonry varies from 350-710mm (1½-3 stone). There was no insulation in the wall and the windows were old 1-pane ineffective windows, though some wndows had been fitted with an extra layer of glass on the inside to improve energy characteristics and remove draughts.
Haustechnische Anlagen vor Sanierung
The building is heated with district heating and fresh air was generally provided by natural ventilation. Toilets/bathrooms and kitchens originally had ventilation shafts (relying on the chimney effect) but most of these had been blocked or simply did not work and hence fresh air was supplied through leaks in the building envelope and open windows.

DENKMALWERT

ERHALTENSWERTE ELEMENTE
The facade of the building is worthy of preservation and cannot be altered according to the classification.
Denkmalwert und wie er bestimmt wurde
The building has a conservation value equivalent of class 4 in the SAVE classification system due to the time-typical but worn, facade with horizontal cornices and strips. SAVE is a compilation of "Survey of Architectural Values in the Environment" (= Mapping architectural values in the environment). The method is based on an assessment of five different conditions of a building: Architectural value Cultural-historical value Environmental value Originality Condition Each of these conditions is rated on a scale of 1-9 and summed up to a total conservation value for the building. The assessment of the conservation value is based on an overall impression of the quality and condition of the building. As a general rule, however, the architectural and cultural-historical value will weigh most. Grades 1-3 are considered a high value, 4-6 for average value and 7-9 for low value. The windows are not protected and have already been improved once by adding a layer of glass to the inside. It is however a requirement that new windows should resemble the old ones and therefore four different solutions were considered: 1. Renovate existing windows 1 + 2 layers of glass (inner part opens inward) 2. Renovate existing windows 1 + 1 layers of glass (inner part opens inward) 3 . Renovate existing windows 1 + 1 layers of glass (inner part coupled to outer part) 4. New windows 1 + 2 layers of glass (inner part coupled to outer part) Solution 4 (new windows) was chosen, since this was both the cheapest and the next best solution regarding energy. There are no heritage restrictions regarding the rest of the building, however the municipality required that roof terraces and PV-panels should not be visible from the street below.

Ziel der Sanierung

Renovation + Extension
Before the renovation, the building had become outdated and from the toilet/bathrooms and kitchens there was originally natural ventilation, but in most apartments the ducts were either blocked or did not work. All except one apartment had a toilet, some had a bathroom, and some had a shower in a separate room or the kitchen. Generally the indoor climate of the building was poor during cold months, e.g. condensation would occur on the inside of windows (see windows section) and draughts were difficult to avoid. The load-bearing structure consists of wooden beams and solid wall. The thickness of the facade masonry varies from 350-710mm (1½-3 stone). There was no insulation in the wall and the windows were old 1-pane ineffective windows. Overall the indoor climate was poor and the energy consumption quite high, and therefore the aim of the retrofit was to improve indoor climate and reduce energy consumption while at the same time improving the apartment facilities such as baths and kitchens. The property was therefore both renovated and modernized in the urban renewal project. The following improvements were made. General improvements: New larger kitchens (kitchen stairwells were included to increase area), New bathrooms, Renovation of facades, basement and stairwells, Replacement of all plumbing (except parts of the heating system), Attractive penthouse apartments with individual roof terraces. Energy improvements: New energy-efficient windows similar to the original ones, Internal insulation with compact insulation, 3 different solutions for mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (Entrance A: Traditional central ventilation, Entrance B: Central demand-controlled ventilation, Entrance C: Decentralized ventilation systems in the apartments), Photovoltaics, Exterior insulation of gable, Insulation under basement ceiling. Indoor climate improvements: Higher degree of air tightness of the building envelope, improvement of windows and ventilation with heat recovery.
Gewonnen Erkenntnisse / besondere Erfahrungen
This project involved a series of tests regarding the internal insulation (measurements of temperatures, humidity etc.), different solutions for windows (replace or repair?) and tested three different mechanical ventilation systems (one for each stairway). These detailed analysis have given a lot of insight into the possibilities and restrictions regarding this particular type of building, which can be used in future projects.

Brick wall - facades

Brick wall - facades

The walls are massive brick walls ranging from 1½ stone (350 mm) to 3 stone (710 mm) in thickness with the widest walls at the ground floor. The parapets have 1 stone (235 mm) thickness. The mean U-value before renovation was 1.40 W/m2K. The facade walls were insulated on the inside with 40 mm Aerorock (a mix of rock wool and aerogel with a thermal transmittance of 0.019 W/mK) for apartments in stairwell A and B and 40 mm Kingspan (phenolic foam) insulation (with a thermal transmittance of 0.020 W/mK) for apartments in stairwell C. In both cases the finish is gypsum boards. The U-value after renovation was approx. 0.4 W/m2K. The gable wall (fire-proofing) towards the gate, which was not protected, was insulated on the outside with 250 mm rock wool with a thermal transmittance of 0.039 W/mK. This resulted in a U-value of 0.15 W/m2K.

Adding insulation to the inside of the contruction is a conservation compatible solution since is does not change the appearance of the building facade.

Facade windows

Facade windows

The original windows were wooden frames with 1 pane of glass and a U-value of 4.20 W/m2K, however some of the original windows had had a layer of glass added on the inside to improve energy aspects and reduce draught. The new windows had 1 + 2 panes of glass. The 2-pane section has krypton gas filling and the total U-value of the windows is 0.89 W/m2K.

Due to the building's status as conservation-worthy, the renovation could not change the facade expression. However, the municipality accepted that the windows were replaced with new windows that were constructed like the old windows. The new windows were specially developed for the project with drawn glass in the outer layer of the pane to give the window the same expression and mirroring quality as the original ones from 1896. The new windows that were installed are wooden windows with switched frames 1 + 2 from Frovin Vinduer and Døre A/S.

Part of the renovation included adding new roof apartments to the top pf the building and thereby a whole new roof was added. Before the renovation the roof had a U-value of 0.52 W/m2K and after the renovation the new roof has a U-value of 0.21 W/m2K.

The roof was not part of the protected facade and therefore no restrictions were present. New roof terraces and PV panels are not visible from the street below.

LÜFTUNG

LÜFTUNG

Before the renovation the building had natural ventilation through open windows and leaks in the thermal envelope. Original ventilation shafts in toilets/bathrooms and kitchens were either blocked or did not work as intended. The renovation included three different types of mechanical ventilation, one for each entrance/stairwell (A, B and C). The purpose was to test different solutions in order for future projects to have a better understanding of which solutions would fit where. Stairwell A: Traditional central mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Stairwell B: Central demand controlled mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Stairwell C: Decentral mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. See documentation for further details.

All ducts and ventilation units are integrated and does not alter the parts of the building that needed preservation and therefore the solution is 100% conservation compatible.

Photovoltaik

Photovoltaik

80 m2 photovoltaics were added to the roof. The producer has calculated the expected production to 8,950 kWh per year and during the first year after renovation the system produced 11,000 kWh. The electricity production should cover most of the electricity used for mechanical ventilation in the apartments.

The photovoltaic system is placed on the roof and therefore did not influence the protected facade of the building.

The photovoltaic panels are placed on the roof (not integrated), but on a part of the roof that is not visible from the street.

Description: The heating consumption (space heating and domestic hot water) was measured before and after the renovation. Before the renovation the consumption was 155 kWh/m2 per year and after the renovation it was 83 kWh/m2 per year. Compared to calculations the measured consumption matches well for the before-situation but not for the after-situation. This was primarily due to the fact that tenants had a higher indoor temperature than assumed (22-23 C instead of 20 C) and that the efficiency of the heat recovery in ventilation systems was lower than expected. This also means that instead of heating energy savings of 63% the actual savings are around 53% - this is due to the so-called "rebound effect" where tenants "invest" some of the energy savings in an improvement of the indoor climate.
