+====== Quality Assurance: Nuremberg case study ======
+===== Introduction =====
+=== Demonstration project "Modernising a block of flats in Nuremberg" ===
+The results of the quality assurance measures applied in a modernisation using Passive House components in Nuremberg have been summarised in this article. The project was carried out by the wbg Nuremberg; the architect Burkhard Schulze-Darup was responsible for the planning and building management. Quality assurance was carried out by the PHI on behalf of the wbg [Feist 2002].
+The heating demand of this building was reduced from 200kWh/(m²a) (previous state) to less than 26kWh/(m²a) as shown in Fig. 1. Typical commonly available Passive House components were used for this.

+===== Summary: Experiences gained =====
+The findings are summarised as follows:
+\\
+The planned standard of workmanship could often be achieved for the roof, external wall and basement ceiling by means of extensive thermal insulation.
+Inspection using thermographic imaging of the exterior and interior did not show any uncalculated weak points; neither were there any flaws that could have been caused by incomplete planning or defective execution.
+\\
+Thermal protection of the connection details yielded excellent results. Inspection using thermographic imaging of the exterior and interior showed that:
+  * The interior surface temperatures were > 15.5°C everywhere; thus mould growth can be ruled out
+  * The lowest temperatures are found at the glass edge seal and at the base board of the lower corners of the building. The temperatures at the base are almost one degree less than the calculated temperature. This is due to drying processes taking place in the external wall that is damp from previous years.
+There were surprisingly good results of the airtightness tests. Inspection with a building pressure test in the completed state gave a value of n<sub>50</sub> = 0.35 h<sup>-1</sup>. No serious leaks were detected. The care taken in the case of wooden beam ceilings proved to be very essential.
+Adjustment of the ventilation system still was not optimal. Simplifications and relevant support on the part of manufacturers are necessary.
+\\
+There is a need for further development in the case of the other building services installations with reference to the thermal protection of connections, fittings and control elements.
