Book Synopsis Les bétons de granulats d'origine végétale : Application au béton de chanvre by : AMZIANE Sofiane
Download or read book Les bétons de granulats d'origine végétale : Application au béton de chanvre written by AMZIANE Sofiane and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre est un des tout premiers « si non le premier » exclusivement dédié au domaine des bétons de végétaux. Nous nous employons au fur et à mesure des chapitres de décrire l’intérêt de l’usage de tels matériaux, de décliner les nombreuses propriétés multiphysiques et enfin d’illustrer les modes de fabrication et de mise en œuvre. Le livre se focalise principalement sur l’exemple du béton de chanvre. Ce matériau est aujourd’hui très largement utilisé dans l’industrie de la maison individuelle. Le confort thermique, hygrothermique et acoustique est induit par la structure exceptionnelle du matériau dans le sens où elle associe porosité, légèreté et inertie. Le comportement mécanique n’est pas en reste, une grande ductilité et des propriétés loin des standards habituels sont précisées dans cet ouvrage. Par ailleurs, l’Analyse de cycle de vie dont la plus grande partie du volume est d’origine végétale fait ressortir un bilan qui lui est très favorable.

Book Synopsis Évaluation des impacts environnementaux des bâtiments en bois by : Charles Breton
Download or read book Évaluation des impacts environnementaux des bâtiments en bois written by Charles Breton and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le secteur du bâtiment émet jusqu'à 30% des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) mondiales. Au Canada, il émet 12% des émissions de GES directes et subira une croissance importante d'ici 2030. Accroître l'utilisation des produits du bois pourrait diminuer les impacts climatiques attribués au secteur du bâtiment, ce qui contribuerait à l'atteinte des cibles nationales de réduction des émissions de GES. En stimulant un aménagement forestier durable, cela limiterait aussi les émissions de GES en forêt, en diminuant par exemple les risques de perturbations naturelles. Une gestion intégrée stimulant les secteurs du bâtiment, de la forêt et des produits du bois générerait un maximum de bénéfices environnementaux (i) en maintenant ou augmentant les stocks de carbone en forêt; (ii) en augmentant le stockage temporaire dans les produits du bois; (iii) en encourageant la substitution de matériaux à plus haute empreinte carbone. Le potentiel réel des stratégies d'atténuation faisant intervenir les produits du bois est difficile à quantifier. L'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV) est un outil utilisé en génie environnemental pour déterminer les impacts environnementaux d'un produit ou d'un service sur son cycle de vie. Cependant, en ACV, il n'existe aucun consensus sur la modélisation du carbone issu de processus biologiques, le carbone biogénique. Les ACV traditionnelles (statiques) ne considèrent pas l'influence des aspects temporels; elles reposent souvent sur les hypothèses que le carbone biogénique est (1) carboneutre ou (2) entièrement émis à la récolte. Ceci est problématique car les impacts climatiques d'un GES sont liés aux variations de sa concentration atmosphérique dans le temps. Les méthodes statiques peuvent donc mener à d'importantes erreurs d'estimation. Par exemple, 57% du carbone séquestré dans les produits du bois canadiens entre 1990 et 2008 est encore stocké dans l'anthroposphère. Considérer ce carboneentièrement émis induit une erreur d'estimation de 675 Mt CO2, l'équivalent de 92% des émissions de GES canadiennes en 2014. Les méthodes dites dynamiques permettent de considérer l'influence d'aspects temporels en ACV. Elles permettent d'éviter les hypothèses simplificatrices (1) et (2). Cependant, ces méthodes sont relativement récentes. Il existe peu d'exemples de leur application dans la littérature, notamment dans le domaine de l'ACV du bâtiment, où leur complexité additionnelle en termes de ressources (temps, données) est un enjeu important. L'objectif de ce projet est de comparer les résultats des méthodes statique et dynamique pour l'évaluation des impacts climatiques des produits du bois en ACV du bâtiment. Plus spécifiquement, cet objectif implique d'identifier une méthode dynamique adaptée à l'ACV du bâtiment, puis de l'utiliser dans une étude de cas. Ces objectifs spécifiques sont couverts dans deux articles. Le premier article dresse une revue critique des méthodes de modélisation du carbone biogénique en ACV et identifie la méthode dynamique du potentiel de réchauffement global biogénique (PRGbio) comme bien adaptée à l'ACV du bâtiment. Celle-ci permet d'intégrer des aspects dynamiques à l'ACV du bâtiment sans trop complexifier la collecte de données d'inventaire du cycle de vie. Le second article décrit l'application de la méthode PRGbio à l'étude de cas des Habitations Trentino, un bâtiment en bois situé à Québec. Comparativement à une approche statique, l'approche dynamique entraîne une réduction des impacts climatiques liés à l'utilisation des produits du bois. Ce résultat suggère que les méthodes d'ACV actuelles surévaluent les impacts environnementaux du carbone biogénique, et que des politiques encourageant la construction en bois auraient un potentiel d'atténuation des changements climatiques prometteur.

Download or read book Terra 2008 written by Leslie Rainer and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Book Synopsis Évaluation d'outils d'analyse du cycle de vie pour étudier la performance environnementale de bâtiments en bois innovants by : Sylvie Alain
Download or read book Évaluation d'outils d'analyse du cycle de vie pour étudier la performance environnementale de bâtiments en bois innovants written by Sylvie Alain and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pour réduire l'impact environnemental d'un bâtiment, l'intégration de l'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV) en phase de conception peut s'effectuer selon deux approches : par l'utilisation d'un outil simplifié, tel qu'Athena, par les professionnels de la construction, ou par la collaboration d'un analyste en ACV en utilisant un outil plus complexe, tel que SimaPro. L'objectif du projet est d'évaluer les forces et les limites de ces outils pour l'analyse de bâtiments en bois innovants au Canada. Les résultats sont basés sur une étude de cas : un immeuble à bureaux de six étages avec une structure en bois lamellé-collé hors norme au moment de la construction. Pour Athena, plus de flexibilité est souhaitable, incluant un contrôle des cycles d'entretien des matériaux et l'ajout du degré d'incertitude des résultats. SimaPro offre plus de flexibilité et de transparence, mais une meilleure représentation des matériaux de construction dans le contexte canadien serait nécessaire.

Book Synopsis The European Landscape Convention by : Michael Jones
Download or read book The European Landscape Convention written by Michael Jones and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.
