Abstract
Following a reminder on the quantities of carbon emitted in the healthcare sector, and casting a spotlight on those directly related to architecture, the authors of this article will develop three large-scale themes, the objective being to render hospital construction sustainable. 1. Energy consumption and how to reduce it. 2. “Low-carbon” construction and how building designers can limit emissions by the choice of construction materials. 3. The “resilience” of some constructions, their capacity to stave off obsolescence. As a conclusion, the authors present one of the most recent projects of the Brunet Saunier & Associates architecture agency: the Saint-Ouen university hospital, Grand Paris Nord. This project is illustrative of these preoccupations and demonstrates the possibility of meeting the challenges of sustainable development by means of simple and durable architecture.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Visceral Surgery (JVS) is the online-only, English version of the French Journal de Chirurgie Viscérale. The journal focuses on clinical research and continuing education, and publishes original and review articles related to general surgery, as well as press reviews of recently published major international works. High-quality illustrations of surgical techniques, images and videos serve as support for clinical evaluation and practice optimization.
JVS is indexed in the main international databases (including Medline) and is accessible worldwide through ScienceDirect and ClinicalKey.
