Misión
Studies on building systems performance, building installations, and their incidence on indoor environmental quality and health conditions. Highlighting the Vibro-acoustic and thermal analysis, energy performance assessment, and indoor air quality evaluation. Studies are carried out at laboratory, building or urban scale depending on the objectives addressed by the different projects and contracts developed.
