The world is beginning to feel the crunch of depleting conventional energy sources and these desperate times call for exploring newer vistas in terms of alternative sources of energy. The construction sector is expected to require a major overhaul involving strategic advancements in the utilization of green energy given the rapid urban growth. A number of policy initiatives to mainstream energy efficiency are in place in most countries that are expected to accelerate energy efficiency and sustainability in buildings. Streamlining the green building movement requires coordinated monitoring and intelligent control of a building's vital functions. This can be achieved through building management systems (BMS) involving the integration of structures, systems, services, and management. Green building movements should examine the potential of power generation from urban, municipal, and industrial wastes. Equitable distribution of water resources should be carefully planned--monsoon-dominated countries should adopt efficient rain-water harvesting measures to provide clean water to thirsty nations.
These overarching concepts are well woven into themed chapters in Green Structures: Energy Efficient Buildings. Easily comprehensible to undergraduates in civil, structural, and environmental engineering; graduate students and researchers; town planners; and architects worldwide, the content of this book not only comes from courses on energy efficient buildings taught by the authors, but also from new and original research. This definitive resource has an enduring appeal for all those concerned with green structures.

Описание: The old saying ‘safe as houses’ is being challenged around the world like never before. Over recent decades homeowners have experienced the devastating effects of defects like asbestos, leaky buildings, structural failings, and more recently the combustible cladding crisis. The provision of safe and secure housing is a critical starting point to ensure that social value can be delivered in the built environment. However, some of these dangerous defects have resulted in a lack of security, safety, health, well-being, and social value for households and the wider community. The problems homeowners experience go beyond the substantial financial costs for defect rectification. Too often there has been a lack of government and industry support to help the housing consumer through these issues or to prevent them from occurring to begin with. It is time for a rethink and restructure of government policy, support, and industry practices to better protect housing consumers and deliver high-quality and sustainable housing that creates social value.Through evidence-based research and international case studies, this book focuses on the effects that dangerous defects have on the housing consumer. The ongoing construction cladding crisis is used as a primary case study throughout to highlight these implications, with other previous large-scale defect examples, such as leaky buildings and asbestos. Based upon the range of emerging evidence, we propose ideas for policy makers, construction and built environment professionals, owners corporations, and households on how to move forward towards a higher-quality, sustainable, and socially valuable way of residential living. Government policy has long focused on ‘making industry work’ through building regulations and standards. It is now time for greater government and industry focus on the consumer to make ‘consumer protection work’ in the built environment. There is a need to prevent dangerous defects li

Systematically structured and didactically prepared, the book conveys in one volume the necessary basic technical and constructive building knowledge to enable readers to implement a wide range of designs. or this reason, over the last 18 years, it has developed into an indispensable information and reference handbook, not only for students and teachers, but also for architects.
The English 5th edition of this standard work for building design has also been further revised in terms of content and expanded by 16 pages on sustainable building.
The worldwide recognized construction handbook for architects
Systematically structured and prepared with the student in mind, with an overview poster as navigation aid in world format
Additional 16 pages "Basics of sustainable construction"
Also available in German (978-3-0356-2664-3) and French (978-3-0356-2667-4)
La 4eme edition francaise du Manuel
Nouvelle edition, enrichie du chapitre « Considerations autour du climat » consacre aux principes de base de la construction adaptee au climat.
De quel savoir technique et constructif a-t-on besoin pour realiser des projets architecturaux varies ? Construire l’architecture propose dans cette quatrieme edition francaise une vue d’ensemble des principes fondamentaux de la conception architecturale. Couronne par plusieurs prix internationaux et traduit en sept langues, cet ouvrage s’est impose comme manuel de cours dans de nombreuses grandes ecoles depuis sa parution en 2005. Il constitue par ailleurs un instrument de reference indispensable pour tous les architectes qui concoivent le processus de construction comme un rapport dialectique complexe entre conception et mise en ?uvre des materiaux.
Optant pour une approche globale de la construction, cet ouvrage combine connaissances techniques et questions esthetiques et les envisage conjointement dans la perspective de l’histoire des civilisations. La construction n’y est pas concue comme une simple question de technique ou de technologie, mais aussi comme le resultat d’une intention artistique qui se concretisera avec d’autant plus de coherence et de force que l’architecte maitrisera les principes techniques et constructifs de base.
Le livre se subdivise en quatre chapitres – Materiaux – Modules, Elements, Structures, Edifices – et contient en annexe un catalogue presentant les elements de construction. Tous les immeubles cites satisfont a de hautes exigences esthetiques ou jouent un role de premier plan dans l’histoire de l’architecture. D’une grande richesse iconographique, cet ouvrage contient plus de 1500 illustrations, plans et dessins de details legendes. Le catalogue permet de comparer les details de construction a l’echelle 1:20. Un index detaille et des titres courants a toutes les pages facilitent l’orientation et la recherche ciblee d’informations.
