Book Synopsis Neighbourhoods in Transition by : Emmanuel Rey
Download or read book Neighbourhoods in Transition written by Emmanuel Rey and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is focused on the intersection between urban brownfields and the sustainability transitions of metreopolitan areas, cities and neighbourhoods. It provides both a theoretical and practical approach to the topic, offering a thorough introduction to urban brownfields and regeneration projects as well as an operational monitoring tool. Neighbourhoods in Transition begins with an overview of historic urban development and strategic areas in the hearts of towns to be developed. It then defines several key issues related to the topic, including urban brownfields, regeneration projects, and sustainability issues related to neighbourhood development. The second part of this book is focused on support tools, explaining the challenges faced, the steps involved in a regeneration process, and offering an operational monitoring tool. It applies the unique tool to case studies in three selected neighbourhoods and the outcomes of one case study are also presented and discussed, highlighting its benefits. The audience for this book will be both professional and academic. It will support researchers as an up-to-date reference book on urban brownfield regeneration projects, and also the work of architects, urban designers, urban planners and engineers involved in sustainability transitions of the built environment.

Book Synopsis La construction écologique by : Jean-Claude Mengoni
Download or read book La construction écologique written by Jean-Claude Mengoni and published by Terre Vivante Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Que l'on soit auto-constructeur ou non, quand on a décidé de construire, investir dans ce livre permettra pour les uns d'éviter de grosses bêtises très couteuses, et pour les autres de discuter " à armes égales " avec architectes, bureaux d'études et artisans. Fort de son expérience, de ses années de pratique et de recherche et de longues heures passées à intervenir sur les forums " habitat ", Jean-Claude Mengoni nous propose un panorama très complet des matériaux écologiques de construction et de leurs différents systèmes constructifs. Des fondations à la couverture, Jean-Claude détaille les principaux éléments constituant une maison " basse conso " et écologique. Sont présentés et comparés : les différentes techniques constructives et matériaux associés (bois, paille, terre crue, briques alvéolées, etc...), les matériaux d'isolation, d'étanchéité, les différents choix de charpente et de toiture (sans oublier les toitures végétalisées), le renouvellement et le préchauffage de l'air, les baies extérieures, les soubassements et la gestion des ponts thermiques. Les matériaux ont été sélectionnés en fonction de leur faible impact environnemental et de leur inocuité sur la santé. Dans chaque partie est intégrée une " Foire Aux Questions " et en fin d'ouvrage 7 exemples répartis dans les 3 zones climatiques françaises illustrent parfaitement le propos. Avec ce niveau de détail, des conseils de pose très précis, et son impartialité, ce livre devrait devenir une référence pour quelques bonnes années.
Book Synopsis The New Carbon Architecture by : Bruce King
Download or read book The New Carbon Architecture written by Bruce King and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soak up carbon into beautiful, healthy buildings that heal the climate "Green buildings" that slash energy use and carbon emissions are all the rage, but they aren't enough. The hidden culprit is embodied carbon — the carbon emitted when materials are mined, manufactured, and transported — comprising some 10% of global emissions. With the built environment doubling by 2030, buildings are a carbon juggernaut threatening to overwhelm the climate. It doesn't have to be this way. Like never before in history, buildings can become part of the climate solution. With biomimicry and innovation, we can pull huge amounts of carbon out of the atmosphere and lock it up as walls, roofs, foundations, and insulation. We can literally make buildings out of the sky with a massive positive impact. The New Carbon Architecture is a paradigm-shifting tour of the innovations in architecture and construction that are making this happen. Office towers built from advanced wood products; affordable, low-carbon concrete alternatives; plastic cleaned from the oceans and turned into building blocks. We can even grow insulation from mycelium. A tour de force by the leaders in the field, The New Carbon Architecture will fire the imagination of architects, engineers, builders, policy makers, and everyone else captivated by the possibility of architecture to heal the climate and produce safer, healthier, and more beautiful buildings.
