Buildings and Infrastructure - Vulnerability and Adaptive Capacity to Climate Change (BIVUAC)
Primary objective of the BIVUAC project is to develop a model that displays the relationships between inherent adaptive capacity in existing and future built environment including water/sewerage infrastructure, present climate load situations and expected climate loads according to selected climate scenarios.
Secondary objectives are:
- Map vulnerability and adaptive capacity in a selection of buildings and water/sewerage/floodwater infrastructure cases, in order to pinpoint indicator for climate robustness
- Establish the combined uncertainty in both "nature" and "society" related aspects to develop climate change adaptation strategies aiming at the building sector
- Suggest measures for decision support, to increase the robustness in urban on rural-town built environment and water/sewerage infrastructure from different periods of time
- Knowledge dissemination of project results to specific target groups, incl. educational purposes
