When does it pay for housing associations to replace water and sewage pipes?
Waiting until water damage occurs is expensive. But it also doesn’t make financial sense to replace pipes too early. We looked into the best time to do it.

Different building materials carry different climate footprints. Norwegian natural stone, such as Otta slate, turns out to have surprisingly good properties as a façade material.
SINTEF researchers play an important role in Water Europe’s work on water security and resilience.
Arctic cultural heritage faces new threats as climate shifts. In this article we explore technical-industrial cultural heritage in Svalbard, what insights it offers, and how to preserve it on degrading permafrost.
It can take up to 200 years for damaged marine environments to fully recover by just stopping the destruction and leaving the ecosystems to themselves. That is why we must implement active restoration interventions.
Locomotives that run on diesel can be electrified. This would both cut CO2 emissions and significantly reduce overall energy consumption, according to a new study.
It could take up to 200 years for our degraded ocean habitats to fully recover if we just leave them alone. So, we must intervene. The good news is that it works.
We need to think more about the interaction between architecture, pedagogy and different forms of learning when we plan new schools, researchers say.
Tests show that it is possible to cut up to 33 percent of energy consumption using smart heating controllers. The system is based on multiple factors, including future electricity prices and weather data.
