As the world's population becomes increasingly urbanized, building sector is expected to consume even more energy and resources, exacerbating environmental damage. Life cycle Inventory Assessment one of main stages Cycle (LCA) it a methodology for quantifying impacts buildings other assets on environment. We propose literature review examining potential Artificial Intelligence (AI) improve LCA buildings. In particular, by incorporating AI into process, checked that accurate predictive...
Currently, Uruguay is developing several measures to reduce the environmental impact of human activities and CO2 emissions. In 2015 more than 90% electricity was produced by renewable sources. Despite this fact, construction, transport, building sectors are still responsible for 60% Reducing impacts becoming an increasing challenge. Lifecycle assessment (LCA) recognized as a method that can help sector. The LCA be used early-stage decision-making tool assess design choices environment....
This study investigates the diurnal, seasonal, monthly and temporal variation of land surface temperature (LST) urban heat island intensity (SUHII) over Isfahan metropolitan area, Iran, during 2003–2019 using MODIS data. It also examines driving factors SUHII like cropland, built-up areas (BI), urban–rural difference in enhanced vegetation index (ΔEVI), evapotranspiration (ΔET), white sky albedo (ΔWSA). The results reveal presence cool islands daytime at night. maximum was observed 22:30...
During the last decades natural polymers have become more and frequent to replace traditional inorganic stabilizers in building materials. The purpose of this research is establish a comparison between most conventional material solutions for load-bearing walls type biomaterial. This will focus on as used widespread twentieth century dwelling construction Europe still developing countries nowadays. To carry out analysis, structural thermal insulation characteristics different are balanced....
This review systematically analyses the most relevant contributions published in area of toxicity building materials and their evaluation from perspective life cycle analysis to give a critical view relationship between two fields. For this review, systematic literature methodology was chosen. With methodology, it is possible identify important sources obtain complete reading state question. The shows that articles on focus usage phase, ignoring perspective. On other hand, different Life...
The building Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) applied to buildings requires collecting and organizing large quantities of data over all life cycles. To overcome specific difficulties related the system boundaries definition cycle inventory stages, literature recognizes that systematic decomposition methods (SBDM) can be used classify components, elements materials, as well increase reliability transparency LCA results, particularly for embodied carbon other environmental impacts. In this paper...
The excessive use of energy in buildings due to increased populations and economic development leads more greenhouse gas emissions, which affect climate change global warming. Changes prevailing outdoor weather conditions significantly the systems through cooling decreased heating. In this paper, 30 years data dry wet bulb temperatures (1990–2020) with a time interval 3 h were considered order estimate climatic design cities Dallas–Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio state Texas. results...
This paper addresses the lack of research that compares toxicity commonly used construction materials. The materials has received less attention, despite its importance within Life Cycle Assessment methodology. All aspects, including toxicity, need to be analysed throughout life cycle material understand true behaviour. purpose this study is propose a methodology compare different and highlight consider criteria in selection during design phase. seeks fill gap existing literature by...

Abstract The IEA EBC Annex 72 focuses on the assessment of primary energy demand, greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impacts buildings during production, construction, use (including repair replacement) end life (dismantling), i.e. entire cycle buildings. In one its activities, reference (size, materialisation, operational etc.) were defined which existing national methods are applied using (if available) databases (national/regional) approaches. “be2226” office building in Lustenau,...
Abstract Introduction: The international research project IEA EBC Annex 72 investigates the life cycle related environmental impacts caused by buildings. aims inter alia to harmonise LCA approaches on Methods: To identify major commonalities and discrepancies among national approaches, reference buildings were defined present compare approaches. A residential high-rise building located in Tianjin, China, was selected as one of main construction elements are reinforced concrete shear walls,...
