MIST is the first stage in the construction of Masdar City, a large-scale sustainable project sited in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The sustainable considerations on which the project is based are inspired by vernacular practices blended with modern technologies, a combination that targets specific climatic and cultural aims while taking into account the arid and harsh environment and also aligning design parameters with local needs. Through these considerations and responses, the paper highlights the residential building facades as important sustainable design strategies due to the fact that they envelope buildings and protect their units. Based on passive vernacular practices, they impact buildings and units in terms of cooling, shading, and lighting, meaning that an efficient design can reduce the energy requirements and reliance on active systems a...","PeriodicalId":38108,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology and Urban Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/2093761X.2016.1237395","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60075764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents an evaluation of CO2 emissions and absorption with varying intended service life periods based on actual geometry and mix ratios of concrete for RC underground structures. Four mix ratios of concrete and CO2 diffusion coefficient based micro modelling are considered, and the CO2 emission and storage are evaluated for each step with material production and conveyance. Simulations for the CO2 amount are also performed for varying intended service life periods and CO2 concentrations. As the intended service life increases, the CO2 emission rapidly increases due to the repeated repairs. In order to reduce CO2 emissions, reducing ordinary Portland cement (OPC) by replacing it with a mineral admixture like fly ash (FA) is a crucial point in the initial construction stage, since CO2 storage in use is li...","PeriodicalId":38108,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology and Urban Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/2093761X.2016.1237393","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60075746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The case study area chosen is the University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) campus. Materials flow accounting is applied to quantify the stock and flow of key construction materials inputs within the campus from 2008 to 2015. The number of degrees conferred (unit of service provided by a university campus) in a year is then factored to the materials input of that particular year. It is concluded that MIPS – which links a service (in this case, university education) enabled by a given product (campus facilities) to the amount of materials, energy, and emissions used or produced in creating that product – offers an interesting way to evaluate the environmental performance of a product if the service unit is properly defined.","PeriodicalId":38108,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology and Urban Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/2093761X.2017.1302836","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60075887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conceptually, organisational culture and human resources are valuable and key sources of competitive advantage. However, unlike other physical assets, human resources have their own expectations, needs and idiosyncrasies that must be met and managed if they are to contribute to firms’ change management efforts. The aim of this research is to investigate employees’ perception of change management in architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms. More specifically, this research attempts to: (1) identify the key enablers of change management; (2) identify the key characteristics of effective change agents; and (3) examine the relationships between organisational culture, employee behaviours and commitment, and perceived organisational change management performance.

The urban microclimate is also important due to its influence on the energy use of buildings. These issues are likely to become more acute as increased urbanisation and climate change increase the urban heat island effect. However, urban planning must be able to provide urban forms that produce various microclimates that result in different comfort situations for pedestrians. This study aims to define various configurations of urban open spaces by analysing the influence of geometrical parameters on outdoor comfort levels. To achieve it, open spaces are simulated for typical hot and cold days in the semi-arid climate of Constantine, Algeria. The sun exposure is estimated using TownScope 3.1, and assorted models are evaluated according to the geometrical indicator of the height to width (H/W) aspect ratio.

The field investigation results from long-term exposure can provide reasonable data for evaluating service life, but corrosion can progress differently due to local conditions, even with the same mix proportions and exposure conditions. This paper uses two methods (deterministic and probabilistic) to explore the variation of the service life of RC columns which have been exposed to chloride attack for 3.5–4.5 years. Fieldwork was carried out on four RC columns exposed to tidal and atmospheric zones, and various chloride profiles from 25 cores were obtained. The chloride diffusion coefficients and surface chloride contents were analysed in relation to the heights at which the cores were taken and the corresponding exposure conditions.

However, they are mostly targeted at new buildings. In order to reach the goals that are being established, while it is necessary to implement measures in new buildings, this is doubly the case for existing buildings, which correspond to the majority of the European building stock. Building renovation improves buildings’ energy performance and reduces the carbon emissions related to the operation of the building, but this involves adding new materials and technical systems. The production process of these new materials uses energy (embodied energy) and releases carbon emissions. In this sense, to evaluate the relevance of the embodied energy in building renovation, the International Energy Agency Energy in Buildings and Communities (IEA EBC) project, Annex 56, developed a methodological framework to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of building renovation...","PeriodicalId":38108,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology and Urban Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/2093761X.2017.1302837","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60075896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mathematical and computational field dynamics (CFD) modelling and simulation methods are applied; a κ-e standard model and finite difference discretisation technique are used to simulate the velocity and pressure path lines as well as the temperature. The results indicate that the energy performance of a domed roof is more efficient compared to flat, vaulted and pitched roofs. In the case of indoor temperature, a domed roof is about 8 K cooler.
