- Air permeability and watertightness (airtight construction, both research and detail design)
- Facade and roof development and detail design concepts (metal, synthetic, glass, composite, masonry, concrete and wood)
- Preparation and development of technical specifications
- Facade and roof structure costing
- Durability (maintenance, cleaning, corrosion)
- Facade tests (water penetration, noise reduction, draught-proofing, surface finish quality control, damage inspection)
