Abstract
A building envelope, in particular a wall, a floor, or a roof of a building with at least two shells spaced some distance apart from one another, which encloses an intermediate space, said space being essentially empty with the exception of weight-bearing and/or construction-engineering elements or being filled at least in sections with porous, open-celled material and sealed from the interior and exterior of the building, wherein controllable sealing means are provided for sealing the intermediate space from the interior and exterior and optionally separated building envelope sections from one other.
Claims27
A building envelope of a building, the building envelope comprising:
- at least two shells spaced apart from one another, the at least two shells enclosing an intermediate space between an interior and an exterior of the building, wherein the intermediate space contains weight-bearing and/or building-technology elements and is otherwise empty, or is filled at least in sections with porous, open-celled material;
- and
- controllable sealing means for controlled sealing of the intermediate space from both the interior and the exterior, the controllable sealing means being configured to be controlled to variably set a fluid leak rate between the intermediate space and the interior and exterior of the building.
