abstract = "In Iceland, many of the older well designed buildings are aesthetically protected. In many cases there is limited information available for building methods, the construction in general, and therefore it's structural capacity. This makes retrofitted projects more challenging, and requires
more investigation (field testing) and more intense cooperation with relevant parties compared to new building design.This presentation will provide a brief overview of the ambitious requirements that are made to retrofitted housing in Iceland. In the design phase, a detailed assessment must
be taken into account for many aspects of engineering and aesthetics, along with usability/functionality of the retrofitted building. The author will describe few examples from Iceland as a consulting engineer in the field of acoustics and noise control.",
