Book Synopsis An Evaluation of Vegetated Roofing Technology by : Benjamin J. Morgan
Download or read book An Evaluation of Vegetated Roofing Technology written by Benjamin J. Morgan and published by . This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Air Force maintains thousands of facilities around the world. Many of these facilities have asphalt built up roofs or some other less than sustainable roofing system. In an effort to find roofing systems suitable for Air Force facilities that are both economically and environmentally friendly, this thesis investigated vegetated roofing as a possible alternative to conventional roofing systems. While vegetated roofs are a relatively new roofing system, they exhibit performance qualities that seem to be in line with Air Force needs. An investigation into the feasibility of vegetated roofing technology revealed that this roofing system has many positive economic and environmental characteristics that could benefit the United States Air Force and the Department of Defense. The potential use of this technology was researched specifically for application to building 15 at Air Force Plant 4 (AFP4) in Ft. Worth Texas. A combination of case studies, site visits, and a life cycle economic evaluation was used to compare vegetated roofing with conventional asphalt built up roofing that is typically used at AFP4. The research revealed multiple environmental benefits and few disadvantages. The life cycle costs combined with the environmental benefits of vegetated roofing show that this roofing system is indeed a feasible alternative for building 15.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The housing and human settlement sector is fast changing, and technology is making it more complex than ever before. With reference to Zimbabwe, a developing country in Southern Africa, the essence of this book is to bring out housing as an issue within the technology debate and practice. The following themes emerge from the 6 chapters in the book: • The characterisation and conceptualisation of housing and technology and the nexus of both • The complexity of housing challenges and the problems governments face in providing adequate housing, especially for the poor • Diverse practices in housing construction through the application of different typologies of technology • Assessment of the feasibility of technologies in housing development in Zimbabwe by mirroring them against global experiences. • Discussion of alternative policy approaches that may guide technology integration in housing development. This book will excite scholars and practitioners in urban and development studies, construction project management, urban sociology, geography, real estate together with policymakers and government officials.
