Journal Title: Architectus - Year 2017, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper discusses the industry driven content of the May 2016 Poland/UK bilateral conference and the potential of building performance evaluation in Poland. It is based on the author’s experience of leading a major UK government funded building performance evaluation programme and observations and presentations given at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology conference. The author has used these observations and referred to primary and secondary research carried out in the UK in order to draw some comparisons between Poland and the UK. It is hoped that primary research in to building performance evaluation can be carried out in Poland in the future.
