Abstract:

City image includes people's perceptions of the built and natural environments as well as the emotions and ideas the city arouses in them. In the city image, the preservation of the buildings, especially historical buildings, which carry the past cultures, meaning and structural features of the city to the present day, can be ensured by making these buildings visible and perceptible by the inhabitants. Historical buildings' visibility can facilitate the recognition and appreciation of their historical significance, thereby contributing to the preservation of the city's cultural heritage. This

Abstract:

Several studies have analyzed the integration of energy-saving strategies in buildings to mitigate their environmental impact. These studies focused mainly on a disaggregated analysis of such strategies and their effects on the building's energy consumption and thermal behavior, using energy engine simulation software (EnergyPlus, TRNSYS, and DOE2) or graphical interface software (DesignBuilder, eQuest, and ESP-r). However, buildings are complex systems whose energy behavior depends on the interaction of passive (e.g., location and construction materials) and dynamic (e.g., occupation) compone

Abstract:

t has been argued that green buildings have a better indoor environmental quality than conventional buildings and that this translates into a more satisfying workplace for the building's occupants and, inturn, a more productive workforce. Assessing a building's cost effectiveness means taking into account all the costs that will be incurred during its life cycle not just development costs. People found no evidence to believe that green buildings are more comfortable than conventional building. In fact, the only difference between the buildings was that occupants of the green building were more

Abstract:

Flex−buildings are buildings which are literally designed to change. A flex−building must be able to accept different infills and its users must be able to easily adapt their surroundings. Flexibility is defined as the capacity of a building to undergo modifications and accept changes of function with limited structural interventions. More than 40% of the activities housed in a flex building can continue to function during modification. Studies into flex−buildings (commissioned by the Dutch Government) have elicited a number of insights. These are not hard−and−fast conclusions but more in the

The impact of wind on tall buildings is not uniform and varies according to the building’s shape and size. Designing a tall building with a regular plan shape is relatively straightforward due to the abundance of available data.

Data availability is limited to regular shapes, where modifications are not incorporated in tall buildings. Therefore, it is essential to investigate wind effects on buildings with non-regular shapes. Two widely used methods for such investigations are wind tu

Abstract:

The embodied energy in building materials constitutes a large part of the total energy required for any building. In working to make buildings more energy efficient this needs to be considered. Integrating considerations about life cycle assessment for buildings and materials is one promising way to reduce the amount of energy consumption being used within the building sector and the environmental impacts associated with that energy. Life-cycle assessment is a decision-making support tool which provides an account of the materials and energy used in a product and assesses the related environme

Abstract:

Commercial buildings account for one third of the total electricity consumption in the United States and a significant amount of this energy is wasted. Therefore, there is a need for “virtual” energy audits, to identify energy inefficiencies and their associated savings opportunities using methods that can be non-intrusive and automated for application to large populations of buildings. Here we demonstrate virtual energy audits applied to large populations of buildings’ time-series smart-meter data using a systematic approach and a fully automated Building Energy Analytics (BEA) Pipeline that

Buildings account for 36% of the final energy demand and 39% of CO2 emissions worldwide. Targets for increasing the energy efficiency of buildings and reducing building related emissions is an important part of the energy policy to reach the Paris agreement within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. While nearly zero energy buildings are the new norm in the EU, the research is advancing towards positive energy buildings, which contribute to the surrounding community by providing emission-free energy. This paper suggests a definition for positive energy building and prese

Tall building developments have been rapidly increasing worldwide. This paper reviews the evolution of tall building’s structural systems and the technological driving force behind tall building developments. For the primary structural systems, a new classification – interior structures and exterior structures – is presented. While most representative structural systems for tall buildings are discussed, the emphasis in this review paper is on current trends such as modeling and analysis.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the method of hysteresis energy distribution and maximum relative lateral displacement in buildings’ stories, under the influence of scaled records for near-fault and far-fault earthquakes. The bracings in the considered buildings’ plan are distributed in two different ways: in the first case, the braces are added in external frames of the building, and in the second case, in the internal ones. Design/methodology/approach This research first selects some steel buildings with concentric braces and studies the seismic vulnerability of buildings under

Abstract:

Tall buildings are vulnerable to wind loads, which can cause significant displacements that can affect their stability, strength, and serviceability. Their structural configuration can significantly influence their behavior to wind loads. There are not enough comparative studies in the literature examining the effects of wind loads on different structural configurations. This study examines the response of tall buildings to wind loads by varying their structural forms. Twelve models of tall buildings of different heights and structural configurations were analyzed using the finite element meth

Abstract:

One of the passive design techniques is the atrium, which can have certain effects on a building inside environment. One of the key considerations when designing a building, especially in a hot, humid area, is the ventilation component. Natural ventilation has the ability to increase a building’s energy efficiency. It can be incorporated into the design of buildings to provide indoor airflow and provide comfortable experiences for the users of the buildings. The integration of an atrium which serve an area for air movement could enhance the cooling of a building. Apart from that, it is crucial

Green building refers to a structure and employing a method that's environmentally accountable and resource economical throughout a building’s life cycle. Since buildings consume nearly five hundredth of the world's total energy, inexperienced buildings, on the other hand, consume a minimum quantity of energy with the utilization of energy economical materials. Hence, location of inexperienced buildings within the close proximity would produce an inexperienced zone and supply a far healthier setting with minimum heat island result. In India there are 2 primary rating systems for inexperienced
