For 40 years, Bauphysik (Building Physics) has been the only German specialist journal dealing with all areas of building physics. Each year, about 35 scientific papers and project reports with an interdisciplinary background are published and the latest technical developments are presented. The journal thus reflects academic and industrial research work and the production of standards, with a strong influence from design practice.Topics include:Thermal insulation Protection against dampNoise insulation and acousticsFire protectionDaylightUrban building physicsEnergy-saving building and interior climateCalculation and simulation proceduresTechnical regulationsInnovative solutions from the industry
