We are happy to announce the release of AIVC's Technical note #70: 40 years to build tight and ventilate right: From infiltration to smart ventilation!

As the AIVC was created in 1979, the 40th anniversary of the AIVC was celebrated in October 2019 at the 40th AIVC conference in Ghent. In the context of this celebration, it was decided to publish 2 overview publications:

The recordings and the slides of the recent venticool/AIVC & Annex 80 Webinar "Indicators to Assess Resilience of Cooling in Buildings" are now available online at: https://www.inive.org/event/10-may-2022-webinar-indicators-assess-resilience-cooling-buildings

Well-insulated and air-tight buildings are known to be vulnerable to overheating. An increase in the severity and duration of heatwaves is expected, resulting in more severe overheating risks, affecting in turn the health and mortality of building users. To achieve more future-proof buildings, it is crucial to design buildings that are “resilient” to overheating in future climate conditions.

The March 2022 issue of the AIVC newsletter has just been released. Specific contents include:

The 42^nd AIVC Conference “Ventilation Challenges in a changing world" will be held on October 5-6, 2022, at the Hilton Hotel, in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It will be a joint event combined with the 10^th TightVent and the 8^th venticool conferences.

The conference programme will include well‐prepared and structured sessions focused on the conference topics, invited speakers and long and short oral presentations arising from the call.

The date of the conference "IAQ 2020: Indoor Environmental Quality Performance Approaches Transitioning from IAQ to IEQ”, organized by ASHRAE and AIVC, is approaching. The conference will be held on 4-6 May 2022 in Athens, Greece at the Wyndham Grand Athens as an in-person conference with a hybrid track.
