Описание:
An understanding of building physics is fundamental for the design and construction of safe, functional, energy efficient buildings. Without it, occupants' health and comfort is compromised, energy bills become unmanageable, or the building fabric itself can fail. But it's not just about providing a heating source or stopping the cold coming in; at the heart of building physics is a fine balancing act: how much ventilation will be required for the occupants and how can that be provided without compromising the thermal performance? How will the layout and fenestration affect light levels and cooling demand?
How Buildings Work provides construction professionals with a clear understanding of the basic mechanisms of physics and how they affect the performance and operation of buildings. Heat, air, moisture, sound, light and radioactivity are explained in turn, yet all the while reminding the reader that none of these phenomena can be considered in isolation when designing a building. Whether you're a student trying to get your head round the basics, or a seasoned practitioner looking for a quick refresher course.

Описание:
The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) is the world s foremost authority on tall buildings. This book is the culmination of the annual awards process in which the CTBUH recognizes outstanding tall buildings from the past year. One winner is chosen from each of four geographical regions (Americas, Asia & Australasia, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) and a further award presents the title of Best Tall Building "Worldwide" to one of the four regional winners. Additionally the CTBUH awards two annual lifetime achievement awards to individuals who have made a significant contribution to the design or technical advancement of tall buildings.
The book provides an overview of the winning, finalist and nominee projects (and careers of the Lifetime Achievement winners). Winning and finalist projects are fully profiled with stunning images, as well as detailed drawings and plans, which accompany an in-depth account of the buildings architectural design, structural design, and any innovations in fields such as program or sustainability. The book also features the official current list of the "100 Tallest Buildings in the World" as the CTBUH is the internationally recognized official arbiter of tall building height.
Highlighting the best tall building construction from 2011, Best Tall Buildings 2011 seeks to represent those projects with the most innovative design and those which strive to advance the profile of the tall building as an integrated sustainable element in cities across the world. Fascinating and inspiring reading for all those interested in the planning, design and construction of tall buildings.

Описание: Presents thirty cutting-edge, sustainable buildings from around the globe and examines how they work in practice, from the point of view of the people who use them. Considers common issues and the lessons that can be learnt for future sustainable building design.
Описание: The demand for low or zero carbon design of buildings is influenced both by legislation and by the increased awareness of building owners and users, as we come to terms with the long term consequences of climate change. Thus there is a need for professional guidance on the methods for low carbon design of buildings. Dynamic modelling and simulation of buildings is the only means of testing designs before construction, but the existing materials published in this area are limited to basic user manuals of corresponding software packages. This book fills the gap as it develops a structured design method underpinned by dynamic simulation.
