Dynamic life cycle costing for robust renovation of multi-family housing

A PhD position is available, supervised by Prof. Delphine Ramon hosted in the Architectural Engineering research group at the Department of Architecture of KU Leuven. The team of Prof. Delphine Ramon aims to advance cost-effective, sustainable, and climate-resilient transformation of the built environment by developing integrated assessment methodologies that support robust decision-making from building to urban scale. Her expertise lies in dynamic life cycle costing and assessment, building stock modelling, coupling climate model data with building and urban simulations, and assessing heat stress and climate resilience. This research project contributes to the research line cost-effective sustainable building renovations with a focus on the development of a dynamic life cycle costing methodology to assess robust cost-effective sustainable building renovations at scales.
