Abstract:

Worldwide, buildings are accountable for a huge share of electrical energy , materials and water consumption. Buildings and construction causes for 39% of energy related CO2 emissions as per world green building council. Aim of Green building is to reduce emissions and also reduce energy consumption by using energy efficient appliances. green building design features have higher initial costs, but the payback period for the incremental investment is less. eco- friendly buildings can grant indirect cost-effective benefits to both the building owner and society in addition to direct cost savings

Abstract:

Building envelope is a key element in providing adequate energy and thermal comfort performance to buildings. The main techniques adopted in this context are discussed to identify modern and effective methods with a particular focus on phase change materials (PCMs). Incorporating PCMs with building construction materials is a booming technology, owing to their enhancement potential of storing and releasing heat during phase transition. This work highlights the importance of PCMs in building envelope, focusing on roof and external wall applications. PCM types, general and desired properties and

Abstract:

The last few decades have seen unprecedented levels of change both in the production of building materials and in the ways they are deployed in building. Despite rigorous debates about materials in architecture from very different areas of theory and practice – ranging from the new materialists' critique of the concept of matter to ecological concerns with embodied energy and life cycle analysis of building materials – the extent to which these developments might demand more adequate conceptualisations of materials remains unexplored. The position this research takes is that building materials

This research project extends my creative work and unpacks my interest in the use of sonification and mapping as compositional strategies, both in my own practice and more broadly. The thesis reflects on the installed composition, 'Building Materials', synthesising a methodology for the creation of similar works by exploring research problems arising from its creation. The thesis considers the tension between the apparently objective process of mapping and the personal, intuitive, nature of creative practice. This tension establishes a space of uncertainty into which viewers can respond imagin

Abstract:

>Magister Scientiae - MSc<br>Public concern about all radiation and radon exhalation from building materials has been highlighted recently. The purpose of this study is to address this public concern and to investigate the contribution of building materials to indoor radon levels. As in soil and rocks, radon gas is formed inside the building materials by decay of the parent nuclide 226Ra. It is not possible to determine the radon exhalation rate simply from the activity concentration of 226Ra, instead one must measure radon exhalation rates directly from the surface of the material. 22

Abstract:

The construction industry is one of the most resource-intensive industries, being responsible for nearly 40% of global energy-related CO2 emissions. In this paper we present a roadmap to implement materials passports and accelerate material reuse in construction, this approach will enable us to reduce embodied carbon expenditure and address Net Zero Targets. The reuse of the whole building should be a priority. The pre-redevelopment and pre-deconstruction audits are essential to inform retain/retrofit design decisions of existing buildings. Deconstruction should be prioritised over demolition.
