Technical Director
Dr Valentina Marincioni is a Lecturer in Building Physics at University College London. She is an expert in building physics and moisture in buildings, with a particular focus on internal wall insulation. Her research focuses on the integration of building physics, predictive modelling and monitoring for the reduction of moisture-related issues in buildings. Her work includes the development of frameworks and tools for moisture-safe construction, the assessment of the energy and hygrothermal performance of traditional and historic buildings, and the development of innovative building fabric solutions.
Valentina contributes to national and international standards as chair of the BSI B/540/2 subcommittee on building performance – moisture, member of CB/401 on retrofitting for energy efficiency and B/540 on energy performance of materials, components and buildings, and contributor to BS 5250:2021 and the UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA3 and CCRA4). She is also an active member of CIB W040 (Heat and Moisture Transfer in Buildings) and serves on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Building Physics.
