Abstract:

Renovating old neighborhoods for the benefit of people has become increasingly important in urban renewal. Nevertheless, old neighborhood renovations are currently considered a group decision-making issue under public participation, involving diverse decision-making subjects. Conflicts within a group are a common problem during group decision-making. In this paper, conflict is examined in the decision-making process for renovating old neighborhoods and novel ideas are provided for quantifying conflict. Public participation in old neighborhood renovations is assessed using conflict degree calculations in group decision-making. Based on the preferences of decision-making experts, a MIP DEA–DA (Mixed Integer Programming Data Envelopment Analysis–Discriminant Analysis) based partial binary tree cyclic clustering model is constructed for clustering experts, and an aggregated group conflict indicator and an aggregated conflict vector are computed, allowing for the quantification of conflict during the renovation process of the old neighborhood based on actual situations. Results indicate that there is primarily a conflict between the benefits of decision-making subject interests and the professionalism of decision-making renovations. This paper contributes to improving public participation, promoting the application of group decision-making theory in old neighborhood renovation, reducing conflict between decision-makers, and speeding up urban renewal.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT With the progress of urbanization, most people live in cities and adjacent urban areas. Meanwhile, the transformation and development of cities and their industries leaves behind a large volume of old building blocks and requires renovating some urban spaces. Notably, urban renewal plays an important role in the sustainable development of cities. As a typical task of urban renewal, the renovation of industrial buildings involves the protection of the industrial heritage and the adaptive reuse of the existing building spaces. Yet, the complex nature of district-level industrial building renovation work spells challenges to effective urban renovation and sustainable city renewal. Although a few studies were devoted to the renovation of industrial buildings, very limited research focused on the renovation of existing industrial urban areas. In particular, the cooperation of different work disciplines to orchestrate sustainable district-level industrial building renovation and strategies to facilitate effective administration of such a way of urban renewal remain to be clarified. To close such a gap, this research employs an approach of multi-case study to conceptualize sustainable district-level industrial building renovation. Four case projects from the Big Bay Area cities, including Dongguan, Foshan, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, are investigated and analyzed due to specific local policies of renovation and their rapid urbanization. Based on the knowledge disciplines of urban planning, industrial heritage reservation, and building renovation, a taxonomy framework is introduced, and the relevant sustainable development strategies are identified. The framework demystifies sustainable district-level industrial building renovation regarding the key aspects of sustainable management to achieve sustainable urban renewal and their hierarchical relations and enhances the knowledge body of industrial building renovation by broadening the scope to the urban scale. Furthermore, the proposed strategies can provide practical implications to sustainable urban renewal with industrial building renovation.

Abstract:

There is an urgent need for energy renovation of the existing building stock, in order to reach the climate goals, set in Paris in 2016. To reach climate targets, it is important to considerably lower energy demand as well as switch to fossil-free heating systems. Unfortunately, renovation rates across the EU remain at a low level of 1% per year. Deep renovation, which lowers energy use with 60% or more, accounts only for 0,2% of renovations. The heating transition thus progresses much more slowly than the electricity transition. We draw on the framework of technological innovation systems, which allows comparison of different transitions. In the literature, it is argued that the configurational nature of the renovation system is one of the main reasons for the slow heating transition. The renovation system is context-bound and consists of many actors both on the demand-side and the supply-side, which leads to a fragmented market. For increasing the speed of the heating transition, it is deemed important to counter this fragmentation. We carried out a review of reports and publications of EU-funded projects on energy renovation. In many projects fragmentation in the building sector was identified as one of the main obstacles. We analyzed the deliverables of these energy renovation projects to find tried and tested solutions. One of these is the so-called one-stop-shop, which promises to improve the organization of the supply side, while also providing an appropriate and affordable solution to the customer. In the discussion we argue that the energy renovation system could be improved by increasing collaboration on the supply side and at the same time simplifying the renovation process for customers. A promising tool to make this happen is the one-stop-shop.

Abstract:

Building energy renovations contribute significantly to energy sustainability and environmental protection. These advantages have increased the importance of renovating existing residential buildings in many countries. In China, the government has supported the energy-saving renovation of existing urban residential buildings since 2007. However, quality failures, which do not meet the technical requirements, occur during construction processes in building energy renovation projects. Although quality failures are regarded as a crucial problem in building energy renovation projects, the identification of quality failures and their sources, likelihood, impacts, and causes remain mostly unknown. This paper investigates the nature of quality failures in building energy renovation projects. A total of 25 quality failures were first identified through five cases, and interviews with six experienced construction professionals in China. A questionnaire survey was further conducted to evaluate the frequency of quality failures. The results show the nature of quality failures that arise during construction and their sources, occurrence frequency, causes, and impacts. The research reveals that quality failures are caused by defaults by workers; inadequate checking procedures; incomplete construction site surveys; inaccurate design work; fraud of construction companies; and inefficient cooperation between different departments. Above all, the behaviors of the main actors are responsible for poor construction quality. Additionally, emphasis on quality control during the renovation preparation stage is critical to ensure that quality failures are reduced in numbers and severity.

Abstract:

Renovating buildings with cultural heritage significance is an important step toward achieving sustainability in our cities. The benefits are not only energy-related but also encompass social aspects that make these renovations a high apriority. The present work investigates the renovation process of a cultural heritage building in the Municipality of Trento in Italy, specifically focusing on achieving energy savings and renewable energy integration by implementing various renovation actions. These renovation actions include improvements to the building envelope, such as roof insulation and window replacements. Additionally, the renovation actions for active systems involve the installation of a ground-source heat pump for heating/cooling coupled with a borehole thermal energy storage system, which is an innovative technology for the renovation of cultural heritage buildings. The electrical systems of the building are upgraded through the addition of standard rooftop photovoltaics, innovative building-integrated photovoltaics (shingles), and the installation of an LED lighting system. The baseline and the renovation scenarios are studied using the dynamic simulation tool INTEMA.building, written in the programming language Modelica. This tool simulates both the building envelope and the energy systems with a high level of detail, using advanced control systems and adjustable time steps. According to the simulation analysis, the primary energy demand is reduced by 30.49%, the final energy demand by 36.74%, and the net electricity demand by 8.72%. Results from this study can be useful to interested stakeholders (e.g., building owners, architects, construction companies, public agents, and urban planners) dealing with the renovation of cultural heritage and protected buildings. Also, the results can be exploited for estimating energy savings by applying advanced renovation strategies for cultural heritage buildings.

Abstract:

The scaling up of zero energy (ZE) renovations contributes to the energy transition. Yet ZE renovations can be complex and error-prone in both process and outcome. This article draws on theory from sociotechnical design, participatory design, and inclusive design to analyse four recent case studies of ZE renovation/building in the Netherlands. The cases are studied using a mix of retrospective interviews and workshops, as well as ethnographic research. Three of the cases studied are ZE renovations of which two are recently completed and one is in progress, while the fourth case is a recently completed ZE new build. Three of the cases are social housing and one is mixed ownership. The research enquired into the situation of the project managers conducting the processes and also drew on resident experiences. The ZE renovation/builds are analysed as sociotechnical product-service systems (PSSs). The article evaluates how the use values, product values, and result values of these PSSs emerged from the processes. This perspective reveals issues with the usability of the PSSs, as well as with cost structures, technical tweaks, and maintenance agreements. Applying a design perspective provides starting points for co-learning strategies that could improve outcomes. Two example strategies that have potential in this regard are described, using demo dwellings and user manual as PSS prototypes in the early design phase. These and similar strategies could support the professionals in the field in creating successful ZE renovation/building processes.

Abstract:

The article discusses the possibility of renovating park areas in order to create public spaces, taking into account all the existing problems of this area, the wishes of residents and the foundations of sustainable development. The main objectives of the study are: to analyze the environmental, natural and anthropogenic factors of mutual influence, as well as the interaction of the relevant systems in areas with urban development, its slow development, and especially during reconstruction and renovation; to substantiate the problem of renovation of urban spaces in the ratio of city-forming zones (industrial, rural and recreational); trace the development of park areas in connection with the development of the city and determine ways to solve the problems of renovation of urban spaces; present a comprehensive architectural concept of linking park and recreation areas and development of the coast of the Odessa Bay. After analyzing the history of the emergence and development of parks in Ukraine, first of all, the historical features of the territory where the hydropark "Luzanovka" is located, the importance of this park area for various factors (environmental, social, urban planning, etc.) is revealed. The introduction of new functions in the territories of historical parks, the competent development of an urban planning structure through the renovation and rehabilitation of the territory will lead to an influx of funds and investors, and will make it possible to reproduce and maintain parks at a new historical stage. The article presents the features of the design and renovation of parks, identifies trends in the further development of the territory, presents social and environmental effects, and provides an example of a project for the renovation of the Luzanovka hydropark.

Abstract:

The European Commission and EU member states have prioritised the renovation of the existing housing stock as a means of achieving their energy-efficiency targets. As buildings account for 40% of Europe’s energy consumption and much of this is used in the residential sector a major breakthrough could be realized here. Despite the fact that energy saving targets have been prioritized in EU and national policy programme’s, progress is slow. The actual rate and extent of renovations are by fare not enough to achieve the targets. Although the necessity of energy savings is acknowledged by institutional investors in housing, housing associations, individual homeowners and occupants, it appears to be difficult to get sufficient support for energy efficiency renovations. The current economic situation is an additional barrier preventing large scale investments in energy renovating the housing stock. This article connects the realisation of energy efficiency goals with the creation of jobs in the EU. The shift from new-build to renovation will have considerable effects on employment in especially the construction industry and the qualifications required by the workforce. Studies show that for every €1 million investment in the existing building stock in the form of energy renovation work, 12 to 17 new jobs could be created. Potentially this could lead to may new jobs. However, there are many uncertainties in these calculations. Are these direct or indirect jobs, what sectors would benefit, are these jobs created within the EU and what would be the net effect on the labour market? Nonetheless these uncertainties, the positive employment effects will prevail. A new and ambitious investment programme in the housing sector could not only improve the energy performance of the sector but create 100.000’s of valuable jobs at a time when these are seriously needed.

Abstract:

We analyze the financial returns to a green building renovation project for a small commercial office building in the urban Midwest. Compared with a comparable conventional renovation, the LEED renovation required additional building costs of approximately $7.41 per square foot. This additional up-front investment, or “green premium,” promises to generate an estimated $1.38 per square foot in annual savings, mostly from reduced energy expenditures. Viewed strictly in financial terms as an investment opportunity, the LEED renovation offered an expected Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of approximately 12%. A sensitivity analysis suggests that this estimate is relatively robust across a range of alternative model assumptions. The findings suggest that LEED renovations could be very attractive to organizations with relatively low capital costs, such as government agencies, but might prove marginal or unattractive to smaller private firms with high costs of capital.

Abstract:

To optimize the organizational and technological model of construction of buildings and structures in a dense urban environment, it is necessary to take into account the factors that have a destabilizing effect on the process of construction and installation works, and arising from the very definition of " constrained urban development", which involves getting near buildings, structures and linearly extended objects in the zone of influence of new construction or reconstruction. This article highlights a number of destabilizing factors that most strongly affect the time and economic costs that must be considered when developing a construction project.

Determinants of the rental housing landlord's decision to renovate are investigated using the Property Owners and Managers Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau in 1995. Relationships are examined between the probability of renovation and the financial, managerial, structural, ownership and tenant characteristics provided by the survey. Four renovation types are examined, kitchen replacement, bathroom renovation, plumbing upgrade and heating system upgrade. Multivariate analysis is used to estimate the relative effects of above characteristics on the likelihood of renovation. Several relationships are found to be important. Recently purchased properties were more likely to be renovated than others. Employment of a property manager decreased likelihood of renovation. Profitable properties appear less likely to be renovated than others. Probability of renovation is affected by, but does not increase directly with, size or age. Further research incorporating both these characteristics and property and neighborhood conditions is recommended.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
PROGRAMA DE DOUTORADO SANDUÍCHE NO EXTERIOR
O Rio de Janeiro é uma cidade de alta densidade demográfica em uma situação geográfica excepcional, entre o mar, as montanhas e diversas lagoas. Uma parcela de sua população, de aproximadamente 6 milhões de habitantes, vive em edifícios de apartamentos. Em muitos bairros não há mais terrenos disponíveis para novas edificações. A construção sustentável é necessária para redução de consumos e desperdícios, assim como a fundamental atenção a aspectos de conforto ambiental e sociais (o morador). Visando a melhoria da qualidade de vida e para atingir um estágio de sustentabilidade será necessário pensar em como aperfeiçoar os edifícios e quadras existentes. Na cidade do Rio de Janeiro há diversos proprietários e locatários, sendo importante elaborar uma estratégia específica para desenvolver uma renovação do parque construído. A presente tese aborda: os edifícios residenciais no Rio de Janeiro (e a legislação), a construção sustentável, a renovação de edifícios e quadras, recomendações para projetos de acordo com as características climáticas e verificações sobre as condições existentes (físicas, ambientais e sociais). Foi desenvolvido um estudo de caso em uma quadra típica no famoso e de alta densidade demográfica bairro de Copacabana (96 porcento de seus moradores vivem em apartamentos, sendo 1/3 com mais de 60 anos) que teve praticamente todos os seus prédios e quadras construídos entre 1940 e 1960 com características semelhantes como: estrutura em concreto, edifícios de 10 e 12 pavimentos e com pouco ou nenhum afastamento entre si.
Rio de Janeiro is a very dense city in an exceptional geography situation between the sea, the mountains and some lakes. The population of six million inhabitants only in the municipality area lives mainly in apartments buildings. In some neighborhoods there are no empty sites for new constructions. Sustainable construction is a necessary step to reduce the consumption and the waste, and also the focus in the comfort conditions and social aspects (the dwellers). To improve the quality of living and achieve the environmental goals it is necessary to think how to upgrade the quality of existing buildings and blocks. In Rio de Janeiro each building has different owners and dwellers, and it will be important to work in a specific strategy to develop the building stock renovation. This thesis involves: apartment buildings in Rio de Janeiro (including the legislation), sustainable construction, renovation (refurbishment) of buildings and blocks, design recommendations according to the climatic conditions in Rio de Janeiro, and the verification of apartment building conditions (physical, environmental and social). One case study in a regular block of a very dense and famous neighborhood named Copacabana (96 percent of dwellers in this neighborhood live in apartments and 1/3 is older than 60 years old) was developed. Copacabana has almost all the buildings and blocks built during the 1940 and 1960 decades with common features like: concrete structure, buildings with 10 to 12 floors, and no distance between them.

Abstract:

The project site in Helsingborg is located on a pier in a harbour area in Öresund, in Sweden’s southernmost province of Skåne. Helsingborg is Sweden’s eighth largest city. It is a densely built urban city, with a large former port area under redevelopment. The project site covers an old warehouse building - Magasin 405, and its surrounding plot. The goal is to re-use and repurpose the warehouse into a attractive meeting place in the city, while adding building volumes and public space to accommodate public activities and housing units within the project site. The new proposal is aiming to revatalize the waterfront area of Oceanhamnen (the Ocean Harbour) and help connect the segregated neighbourhoods ’North’ and ’South’ (”Norr” and ”Söder”) of the city centre. The renovation of Magasin 405 will make the waterfront district, and the city as a whole,more dynamic.

Abstract:

This thesis is about renovations and municipal housing companies, and more generally, it concerns housing inequality and urban restructuring. The Swedish housing market is strongly characterized by housing inequality, and, in addition, large parts of the affordable rental stock are facing need for renovations. Renovations which risk making the rental stock less accessible and, in addition, reinforce inequality and displacement. Half of all the properties facing renovation in Sweden are owned by municipal housing companies, allmännyttan, which are obliged to provide good and accessible housing for everyone and the common benefit. However, since 2011, the municipal housing companies are at the same time to operate under preconditions that require profit. In the light of this potential conflict of interest, the overarching purpose has been to provide an empirical exploration and problematization of how renovations are managed and motivated within allmännyttan and what potential implications this has on supplying good housing for all. Through the case of the municipal housing company Bostads AB Poseidon and the district Frölunda Torg in Gothenburg, renovations have been explored within a municipal setting and larger urban restructuring process. The material that formed the empirical data was qualitative and comprised three parts: policy, communication with tenants, and interviews with employees at Bostads AB Poseidon. Central concepts in exploring the renovations have been displacement pressure, urban restructuring, and hegemonic gaze. The thesis has identified several aspects concerning renovations and the altered role of allmännyttan which raises questions whether the renovations can be understood as for the common benefit.

Abstract:

Updated normative documents within the Fit for 55 legislative package envisage increased dynamics in achieving European Green Deal goals, which are obligatory for EU countries. This directly applies to over 65 million energy-inefficient buildings in EU27 urban areas as well as heat supply systems. However, unified funding for long-term renovation programs is not planned. To respond quickly to diverse financing options with distinct conditions and target variables, a costly and time-consuming elaboration of detailed renovation projects becomes ineffective. The article outlines the functional algorithm developed for the innovation sandbox, which is intended for the simulation of various renovation/modernization options in the overall urban heating system including heated buildings, district heating network and heat sources. The aim is crafting the application/project that meets the specific conditions to the maximum and provides high performance-price ratio. The algorithm is founded on the previously developed methodological concept. Created sandbox�s algorithm: � encompasses the analysis of all components of the overall heating system; � is applicable to the requirements of relevant projects and available funding options; � offers a flexible pre-design assessment of the benefits to be achieved by the project; � capable to consolidate many individual projects; � provides objective and sufficiently precise results for the initial simulation and evaluation of project variations; � does not necessitate specific knowledge in building physics and economics; � utilizes a limited set of input indicators. Through the sandbox, both central and local governments, as well as building owners, can effectively adapt to evolving funding and/or project tender rules.

Abstract:

Changes in land use and architectural renovation are a normal process in historic urban centres, and as a consequence there are changes in the occupation of properties, such as the loss of vegetation cover and filtering soils that could be integrated into the urban green system, which is now almost entirely concentrated in the public space. In this study, a series of orthophotographs of the historic centre of the city of Loja were analysed to determine the changes in vegetation cover and its distribution among squares, parks and private properties. The study puts into context the way in which the city has modified the extent of green cover throughout its modern history. An analysis of aerial imagery was carried out using a pixel classification technique to determine the proportion of area per pixel analysed, and maps were produced to study the distribution of urban greenery in the study area and compare its radius of influence in each period studied. The results show how the historic centre is becoming detached from the urban green system, reducing the presence of green cover on private properties and concentrating on the public space of squares and parks in the centre. This study also explores strategies to protect and increase the distribution of green areas, which can contribute to the reduction of environmental problems in the city.

Abstract:

Climate change requires significant measures to adapt existing cities to new requirements; extensive urban renewal actions are therefore necessary. In order to be financially sustainable, such investments are mainly based on real estate and market operations, also at long term. The current valuation practice would require to resort to appraisal methods based on actual, historical market data, also known as Revealed Preference Methods (RPMs), which allow to derive the preferences expressed by the actions of market. Because of the instability, complexity and uncertainty of real estate markets as they are today, the results obtained with the application of standard RPMs are often not fully reliable. The most advanced and current solutions to the above problems mainly focus on possibilistic models, based on fuzzy logic. Such models can account for the uncertainty in the input data and single out some estimated values that are associated with a certain likelihood of occurring or, alternatively, detecting a range of possible values. Such models represent a support to operate always within the range of the RPMs. They are instrumental to improving the quality of the input data and to describe the level of uncertainty. The paper proposes the application of fuzzy logic in valuation methods, considering another type of uncertainty from the one considered through the probability theory. After the framework of the issue and a brief description of the principles of the fuzzy logic theory, some proposals, at international level, concerning the application of fuzzy logic to real estate appraisal techniques (Sales Comparison Approach, Discounted Cash Flow Analysis and Multiple Linear Regressions) are described, analysed and critically discussed.

Abstract:

In the Czech Republic, despite the high demand for housing, a large number of houses remain unoccupied. Many of them are falling into disrepair, especially in the countryside. And at the same time, new houses, without architectural and urban planning qualities, are growing right next to them on agricultural land. In my work, I deal with how to adapt these old houses to the current requirements for family housing. This includes requirements for energy savings for the indoor environment, especially thermal comfort. Therefore, during renovations, the house's outer shell is insulated and heating changes are made. Walls, ceilings, floors and roofs are insulated with thermal insulation, windows are replaced with new, thermally insulating ones, and air-conditioning units with recuperation are installed in the houses. These are very expensive measures. That's why I ask myself whether they are all necessary in terms of return on investment. In addition, these interventions significantly change the appearance of the building and the entire environment. These modifications are not always carried out correctly and may damage the building and worsen living conditions. Based on partial calculations of energy efficiency, I am dealing with how individual building modifications are beneficial for reducing energy efficiency and whether their contribution pays off financially, taking into account the costs. I have narrowed my interest to buildings of historical, rural character, which are built from locally available, natural and recycled materials, perfectly adapted to their environment.

Abstract:

In the context of China's urban renewal era, the transformation of urban industrial heritage buildings is increasingly welcomed by architects and citizens. It is crucial to scientifically and effectively identify and evaluate the visual perception brought to viewers by the renovated industrial buildings. This study combines eye-tracking technology from human factors analysis with subjective questionnaire results to assess the visual perception of architectural spaces in a typical industrial heritage renovation project in Beijing—Langyuan Station. The results show that focusing solely on prominence (e.g., using bright colours) in renovation may not necessarily increase observers' likability or desire to explore. We recommend that in the process of renovating urban historical industrial buildings, full consideration should be given to the authenticity of the building itself, the continuity of its style, and the consistency of its style. Design innovation based on these considerations (e.g., using materials or structures with similar styles) tends to be more attractive. The findings of this study provide valuable information and practical guidance for architects and designers.

Abstract:

The regeneration of Zorrotzaurre is the largest current urban development project in the city of Bilbao. Since the final Master Plan for the project was approved in 2012, progress in the development has already resulted in the opening of the Deusto canal and the construction and renovation of buildings on the northern and southern parts of the island. However, certain challenges have arisen throughout this phase that must be solved in order to guarantee further successful development of the island. These challenges can be summarised in four key factors: Governance, Talent Creation, Real Estate and Mobility. This report gathers a case analysis of six city districts in order to obtain pragmatic and robust findings and recommendations for the development process in Zorrotzaurre: Waterfront Toronto (Canada), 22@ -Barcelona (Spain), HafenCity – Hamburg (Germany), Innovation District- Porto (Portugal), Kalasatama -Helsinki (Finland) and Innovation District - Rotterdam (The Netherlands). The result of the analysis leads to seven core conclusions: Centrality multiactor spaces as governance structures for district development Holistic system for a bottom-up approach and citizens’ participation Comprehensive information sharing system Importance of district development facilitators and agency Living lab approach Compliance of real estate with social and environmental standards Mobility as an essential part of the district development process The analysis is part of Bilbao Next Lab, the action research project facilitated by Orkestra in collaboration with Bilbao City Council in order to advance within the smart specialization process of the city. According to the cogeneration model of action research, this report will be one of the contributions of the team of researchers from Orkestra to the process with the aim of defining specific policy instruments and actions for the development of the Zorrotzaurre district. Specific workshops, arranged by researchers, will take place in 2020 for such purpose.
