Abstract
Modernizing existing buildings is vital to saving carbon emissions and counteracting global climate change. Many countries face the challenge of modernizing a considerable number of their buildings in the next two decades. Implementing related modernization measures requires a high number of craftworkers. However, current studies indicate that these craftworkers’ current lack will increase. Examining the effects of craftworkers shortage on modernization strategies needs data concerning the realization time of modernization measures. We collected this data based on 90 expert interviews and provide it in this paper. The interview results comprise realization times for insulation measures of the envelope and changes in the heat supply system for typical buildings. This paper describes the data collection and presents the raw data available at a repository at Figshare. The data is internationally applicable in simulation and optimization approaches for building modernization.
