Book Synopsis Eco-Design of Buildings and Infrastructure by : Bruno Peuportier
Download or read book Eco-Design of Buildings and Infrastructure written by Bruno Peuportier and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-12-22 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chair Eco-design of buildings and infrastructure, a partnership between three engineering colleges (MINES ParisTech, Ecole des Ponts ParisTech and AgroParisTech) and the VINCI group, aims to create measurement and simulation tools which integrate all the dimensions of eco-design (greenhouse gas emissions, impact on biodiversity and resource levies, etc.) to become real decision-making tools, based on a scientific approach, for all actors in the city (designers, builders and users). This book reviews the second five-year sequence of the Chair, first presenting methodological advances in eco-design: life cycle assessment and quantification of uncertainties; local environmental impacts of transport and biodiversity. The interdisciplinary partnership, also associating the human sciences, shows its interest in taking into account the human factor in the modelling of urban systems. This modelling is based on several numerical simulation tools, presented in the third part. This theoretical set results in more substantial proposals for the renewal of techniques and systems, in terms of energy management strategies in buildings, urban agriculture, participatory data collection and digital transformation in transport. This book is intended for urban planners, local authorities, building owners, architects, design offices, companies, building managers, teacher-researchers and anyone interested in the environmental quality of our living spaces.

Book Synopsis Applied Building Physics by : Hugo S. L. Hens
Download or read book Applied Building Physics written by Hugo S. L. Hens and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Energiekrise der 1970er Jahre, häufig auftretende Feuchteprobleme, Klagen über das Sick-Building-Syndrom und mangelnden Komfort hinsichtlich Raumklima und Behaglichkeit und nicht zuletzt das Bemühen um Nachhaltigkeit haben die Bauphysik zu einem Innovationsmotor auf dem Gebäudesektor gemacht. Dabei war die gesellschaftliche Forderung nach Energieeinsparung in Gebäuden ohne Gebrauchseinschränkungen der Auslöser für die ganzheitliche Planung. Wie alle Ingenieurwissenschaften ist auch die Bauphysik anwendungsorientiert, weshalb sich nach einem ersten Buch über die Grundlagen das vorliegende zweite Buch mit den Hintergründen der Gebrauchstauglichkeit und den Anforderungen an Energieeffizienz in Gebäuden befasst. Außenklimabedingungen und Raumklimaberechnungen werden diskutiert, Energieverluste und -gewinne werden für Gebäude und separat für die Gebäudehülle untersucht. Die wichtigen physikalischen Eigenschaften für den gekoppelten Wärme- und Feuchtetransport durch Baukonstruktionen werden für zahlreiche Materialien aufgeführt. Für das Buch stützt sich der Autor auf seine Erfahrungen aus 35 Jahren Lehre der Bauphysik für Architekten und Bauingenieure und 40 Jahre Tätigkeit in der Forschung und als Beratender Ingenieur.

Download or read book R&D Investment and Impact in the Global Construction Industry written by Keith Hampson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R&D Investment and Impact in the Global Construction Industry brings together contributions from leading industry researchers in a diverse group of countries to investigate the role of research and development (R&D) in the construction industry. Investment in R&D is a proven factor in economic growth, and helps develop a more productive and innovative industry. This book explores how policy makers and industry leaders can better target future investment; and how industry and researchers can manage their efforts to improve productivity whilst addressing the environmental and social needs of their communities. Case studies present projects where R&D ideas funded by both the private and public sectors have been translated from research into practice or policy, and examine drivers, successes and barriers to the delivery of R&D in industry. Based on research from members of the CIB Task Group 85 (R&D Investment and Impact) and concluding with key insights for maximising the impact of R&D in the future, the book holds valuable lessons for practitioners, policy makers and researchers across the international construction industry.
Book Synopsis Energy Transition by : Bernard Lachal
Download or read book Energy Transition written by Bernard Lachal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-05-29 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although most people are aware of the value of developing new energy technologies, the importance of assessing such technologies is only just beginning to be recognized in full. This book, illustrated by real-life examples, fulfils two main objectives. Firstly, it provides an in-depth summary of energy system evaluation methods, the result of decades of work in this area, for the use of researchers, engineers and anybody else interested in the energy sector. Secondly, the vicious cycle of neglect towards in situ evaluation is broken. This neglect is due to its unjust reputation for being “thankless work”: longwinded, expensive, difficult to exploit and undervalued. By scientifically organizing experience acquired over more than 30 years, Energy Transition highlights the considerable usefulness of the approach, not only economically, but also from a human standpoint.
Book Synopsis Modern Architecture and Climate by : Daniel A. Barber
Download or read book Modern Architecture and Climate written by Daniel A. Barber and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How climate influenced the design strategies of modernist architects Modern Architecture and Climate explores how leading architects of the twentieth century incorporated climate-mediating strategies into their designs, and shows how regional approaches to climate adaptability were essential to the development of modern architecture. Focusing on the period surrounding World War II—before fossil-fuel powered air-conditioning became widely available—Daniel Barber brings to light a vibrant and dynamic architectural discussion involving design, materials, and shading systems as means of interior climate control. He looks at projects by well-known architects such as Richard Neutra, Le Corbusier, Lúcio Costa, Mies van der Rohe, and Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill, and the work of climate-focused architects such as MMM Roberto, Olgyay and Olgyay, and Cliff May. Drawing on the editorial projects of James Marston Fitch, Elizabeth Gordon, and others, he demonstrates how images and diagrams produced by architects helped conceptualize climate knowledge, alongside the work of meteorologists, physicists, engineers, and social scientists. Barber describes how this novel type of environmental media catalyzed new ways of thinking about climate and architectural design. Extensively illustrated with archival material, Modern Architecture and Climate provides global perspectives on modern architecture and its evolving relationship with a changing climate, showcasing designs from Latin America, Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Africa. This timely and important book reconciles the cultural dynamism of architecture with the material realities of ever-increasing carbon emissions from the mechanical cooling systems of buildings and offers a historical foundation for today’s zero-carbon design.

Book Synopsis Energy Demand: Facts and Trends by : B. Chateau
Download or read book Energy Demand: Facts and Trends written by B. Chateau and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fIrst oil crisis of 1973-74 and the questions it raised in the economic and social fIelds drew attention to energy issues. Industrial societies, accustomed for two decades or more to energy sufficiently easy to produce and cheap to consume that it was thought to be inexhaustible, began to question their energy future. The studies undertaken at that time, and since, on a national, regional, or world level were over-optimistic. The problem seemed simple enough to solve. On the one hand, a certain number of resources: coal, the abundance of which was discovered, or rather rediscovered oil, source of all the problems ... In fact, the problems seemed to come, if not from oil itself (an easy explanation), then from those who produced it without really owning it, and from those who owned it without really control ling it natural gas, second only to oil and less compromised uranium, all of whose promises had not been kept, but whose resources were not in question solar energy, multiform and really inexhaustible thermonuclear fusion, and geothermal energy, etc. On the other hand, energy consumption, though excessive perhaps, was symbolic of progress, development, and increased well being. The originality of the energy policies set up since 1974 lies in the fact they no longer aimed to produce (or import) more, but to consume less. They sought, and still seek, what might be emphatically called the control of energy consump tion, or rather the control of energy demand.
