There is a limited comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness adopted carbon mitigation strategies for buildings over their life cycle, that are concerned with temporal perspectives emissions. Accordingly, this paper explores cycle assessment (LCA) to address concerns regarding mitigating footprint UK timber-frame low-energy dwelling. In particular, it aims investigate potential greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction in terms three different heating and ventilation options, analyze...
Since the 1980s, smart buildings have aroused interest of researchers. However, there is still no consensus on what intelligence a building is, and enhances that intelligence. The purpose this paper to identify correlate main drivers systems buildings, by associating them with beneficiaries: users, owners, environment. To these we carried out comprehensive, detailed, interpretative literature search. From selected articles, sorted information, extracted concepts knowledge, and, finally,...
Climate change is one of the major concerns worldwide and greenhouse gas emissions plays an important role in increasing temperature earth's atmosphere. Furthermore, construction industry that presents a considerable environmental impact as it consumes large amounts natural resources energy. Aiming to investigate impacts, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology evaluates products services showing similarities differences evaluating midpoint endpoint categories. This study reviews LCA from...
The regulation of urban property use is a fundamental instrument for the development cities. However, most norms that set general guidelines policy predate transformations smart city concept has brought about in way cities are appropriated and perceived by society, even today, studies on how these regulations collaborate to make smarter more sustainable. This work contributes filling this gap investigating main Brazilian City Statute have greatest potential contribute having sustainable To...
The construction industry is one of the most significant consumers environmental resources worldwide. Faced with need to produce new buildings, but without further burdening environment, attempts improve social, economic, and indicators have turned attention building in recent decades. objective this research develop a novel framework assess sustainable choice materials applied low-income according three pillars Triple Bottom Line (TBL). A BIM-LCSA-FAHP-based model was proposed creation nine...
In urbanized plains that are subject to flooding, the socioeconomic aspects, climate characteristics, built environment, and riverine processes exhibit bi-univocal relationships with flood formation itself, creating a pattern of development without predefined equilibrium state. The complexity involved in management need for comparative assessment method hierarchise different design alternatives or planning scenarios requires practical quantitative methods urban diagnoses, including risk...
Worldwide the construction industry presents a significant demand for new technologies ensuring certainty, cost-effectiveness and time efficiency. Modern relies on digital resources, one of most prominent novelties is Building Information Modelling (BIM). Construction planning effectiveness based clear communication integration between project planners other participants, such as engineers, architects, suppliers, workforce. The possible connection 3 D models or scheduling potentially reduces...
Buildings demand a significant amount of energy during their life cycles, hence, effective design measures need to be adopted ensure efficient usage and management in buildings. This study proposes framework based on various performance parameters enable decision-makers utilizing standard procedures software empower the process sustainable use buildings, through parametric analysis different climatic conditions. Experimental is within via related building (i.e., construction materials for...
The COVID-19 pandemic has driven the rapid evolution and digitization of different tourism sectors through Industry 4.0. However, Community-based Rural Tourism (CRT) not experienced same technological advancement. Thus, considering as a powerful socioeconomic driver, this research is based on relevance CRT for development rural areas job creation, preservation historical-cultural architectural heritage, appreciation local market. Therefore, objective paper to present concept model an...
