Описание: Sustainable Urban Forms: Theory, Design, and Application explores the latest research and practice regarding ways to design a more sustainable, livable world. It investigates the critical environmental problems that are created by modern cities and addresses the ecological concerns of urbanism. It also outlines creative design solutions through current viewpoints, proven strategies, and examples of good practices in the field.A blend of proven theory and carefully selected case studies from different geographical locations, the text provides an interdisciplinary, holistic overview of the subject matter. Readers will gain increased awareness of the critical environmental problems created by modern buildings and cities.Filled with outstanding graphics and visual information, Sustainable Urban Forms: Theory, Design, and Application effectively illustrates how environments can be designed to foster sustainable, livable urban communities. The book is designed for use in undergraduate courses on urban design, architecture, and environmental design. It can function as a main text, or as a companion reader in a design studio setting.
Описание: This book compiles papers presented during the 5th International Conference on Sustainable Civil Engineering Structures and Construction Materials (SCESCM) held virtually in December 2020. This is the fifth edition of this conference series; the theme for the 5th SCESCM is “Transforming the World, Foster the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” and it focuses on various issues, novel findings, as well as developments in the area of civil and infrastructure, conforming to the SDGs. This book caters to postgraduate students, researchers, and practitioners involved in advocating and embedding sustainability in various phases of design, construction and maintenance of civil engineering structures and infrastructure facilities.
Illustrates the Global Relevance of Sustainability
Applicable to roads, bridges, and other elements of the infrastructure, Green Building with Concrete: Sustainable Design and Construction, Second Edition provides an overview of all available information on the role of concrete in green building. A handbook offering viewpoints from worldwide experts on the global nature of the sustainability movement, it highlights research on economic analysis, in particular the International Organization for Standardization, Environmental Management--Life Cycle Assessment--Principles and Framework application of life cycle costing, to provide a full picture of the economic benefits of concrete in green building.
Outlines the Variety of Ways That Concrete Is Easily and Affordably Reused
With an emphasis on environmental impact and occupational and consumer health and safety, the text clearly outlines how to make the most of concrete in sustainable design. It explores the benefits of thermal mass, increased water supply, and improving water quality; reducing urban heat island effects; reducing construction waste; and the use of supplementary cementitious materials. The authors include an in-depth evaluation of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other emissions associated with the manufacture of cement. They also highlight the attributes that concrete has to offer the green building movement and the effect that emerging life cycle analysis has on concrete's role in this important revolution in the building industry. Readers gain a better understanding of how concrete can contribute to sustainable construction, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), and the green building movement overall.
Green Building with Concrete: Sustainable Design and Construction, Second Edition presents the most recent information about concrete's role in the green building movement, state-of-the-art methodologies, and best practices, and provides readers with diverse viewpoints on global sustainability.

Описание: Sustainable Housing: A Systems-based Approach introduces students to the issues and processes that must be considered when developing sustainable housing, particularly housing that can approach net-zero energy performance.The book considers the history of American thinking as it relates to the environment and development. It addresses challenges in community development, particularly the need to develop affordable housing and how such housing can also be made sustainable. It examines the relationship between energy and housing, and the separate but important relationship between water resources and housing. Finally, it explains the basic concepts of building science.The material is rooted in a technological and systems-based approach. Thus, it examines how community systems, energy and water systems, and building systems work. For each of these systems, the book also identifies and evaluates the inherent technological component.Sustainable Housing is written for introductory courses in housing, community development, and building science.

Описание:
Built environment professionals considering whether to embark on the design and construction or retrofit of a fully 'sustainable' or 'green' build need to know the financial implications of their decisions. What are their financial options? What are the risks? This book offers practical guidance on how sustainable building projects are financed, designed and built. All too often sustainable building is undertaken without proper consideration of the true lifecycle cost, risk and financial impact. This book will take the reader on a journey from initial sustainable design through to final completion highlighting the finance options available to them.
New Financial Strategies for Sustainable Buildings provides key guidance to a variety of professionals, including architects, designers, contractors, construction managers, investors and other interested parties, whilst providing a useful reference to students on architecture, construction management and real estate/surveying courses who need to know about finance, construction economics, and sustainable development projects.
