Abstract

"For sustainable architecture to become a reality, the way we design buildings needs to change. Many architects are concerned that sustainable technologies may interfere with a building's aesthetic appearance and so these are often 'added on' once the design process is complete. Elements of Sustainable Architecture solves this dilemma by helping students to develop the design skills they need to create sustainable buildings - ensuring that ecological considerations are applied throughout the design process. Restoring the primacy of aesthetics and creativity to sustainable design, the book focuses on strategies which have the greatest impact on building design. It also shows the influence sustainability considerations have on choices about aspects such as composition, form, space, tectonics, materials, color, textures, proportion, and position. Specifically designed to offer a new way of understanding architecture, the book: Introduces students to the basic principles and methods of sustainable design; Features current examples and inspiring case studies to support learning step-by-step; Presents information in a visually appealing, intuitive, easy-to-understand way; Includes over 500 high quality color diagrams, drawings, sketches and photographs. A clear, visual introduction to creating aesthetically beautiful and sustainable buildings, this is essential reading for students on sustainable architecture courses" [Publisher]

Abstract

In future, buildings that make sense from a bioclimatic perspective will not be the exception; planners will simply be expected to design them. With its wealth of facts, this book serves as a concrete aid to planning and design. With the planning process as its roadmap, it accompanies the planner from the basic evaluation stage through conception and implementation planning all the way to building operation. The building-related characteristics of the various climatic zones form the basis for the made-to-measure development of integrated building solutions. Well-conceived graphics illustrate planning contexts and facilitate efficient planning decisions and realistic predimensioning. Materials, systems, and technologies are described, and their areas of application are pointed out. Reference parameters, costs, and the presentation of interrelationships equip the planner to make a strategic and well-informed selection.

Abstract

Duurzame stedenbouw is geen utopie. Concepten als ‘CO2-neutraal’, ‘klimaatbestendig’ en ‘cradle tot cradle’ zijn inmiddels vanzelfsprekend in de dagelijkse bouwpraktijk. Duurzame stedenbouw wordt steeds meer de drager van duurzame ruimtelijke ontwikkeling. The next step brengt de actuele discussies, kennisontwikkeling en inzichten onder de aandacht en geeft nieuwe en geactualiseerde voorbeelden van geslaagde projecten. The next step is een compleet herziene uitgave van Duurzame stedenbouw, perspectieven en voorbeelden, dat in 2005 verscheen. Uitgave in samenwerking met Stichting Beursloge Projecten. In opdracht van het ministerie van VROM, de Stuurgroep Experimenten Volkshuisvesting, SenterNovem en Habiforum Urban planning and design faces the enormous challenge of creating and maintaining liveable towns and cities. Sustainability must be the guiding principle. Sustainable Urban Design – The Next Step reviews the current situation in the development of sustainable urban design. This book is a fully revised edition of Sustainable Urban Design – Examples and Perspectives (2005). The publication received the Gerd Albers Award for the best publication from the International Society of City and Regional Planners (ISOCARP).Sustainable Urban Design – The Next Step has been compiled by an interdisciplinairy working group of urban designers, planners and landscape architects. The publication contains three essays that review the latest developments. The most important recent topics are discussed in a round table discussion. Six example projects, either new or fully revised and updated, clearly show that sustainable urban design is no utopia, but is undergoing continual development in practice and is becoming an integral and essential part of modern urban design. With more than thirty background texts and reference projects from the Netherlands and elsewhere, Sustainable Urban Design – The Next Step is the most up to date and complete standard work on sustainable urban design.

Abstract

The sustainable renovation of older buildings involves more than just an improvement of their energy footprint – and it is due to the complexity of the issue why architects are destined to take on this task. The book “Energy efficiency refurbishments” was written by architects for architects. It shows how design, construction and systems engineering carried out during the renovation of diverse types of buildings fit together. The authors present the basics of indoor and outdoor environments, energy-efficient balancing, ecology and economic viability. Aided by countless illustrations of design details, they discuss issues such as thermal insulation and the proper use of daylight as well as heating and ventilation. Detailed analyses of a residential building and a non-residential building help illustrate how individual issues are integrated into the overall architectural context.

Abstract

The DETAIL Green Book "Sustainable Construction Techniques" offers a thorough guide to ecological building design and sustainable construction methods, which will be particularly valuable for architects. The authors provide an overview of the most relevant databases and certification standards for building products and illustrate how a Life Cycle Analysis is conducted. They also identify key ways of optimising the planning process in line with ecological criteria, while offering advice for the selection of building materials and elements. Detailed documentation from five buildings constructed in Europe and North America serve to illustrate the associated assessment processes in this book.

Abstract

This book provides insight into the many facets of green labels. The most important certificates with their system variants and assessment methods are introduced in detail (BREEAM, LEED, DGNB, MINERGIE) and information on the certification processes and costs is provided. Selected buildings are used to illustrate the core themes, the certification processes and the differences between the various labels. “Green Building Certification Systems” is therefore an important reference book for architects and planners, clients and project managers, as well as manufacturers and construction companies.

Abstract

Pour un fonctionnement durable des bâtiments, l'utilisation des systèmes économes en énergie pour le chauffage, le refroidissement, la ventilation et l'alimentation électrique sont essentiels. Le livre " Sustainable building services " permet de comprendre les concepts de système d'économie d'énergie les plus importants et les composants. Il documente la façon dont chacune des technologies fonctionne et montre comment ils interagissent dans des concepts globaux. L'état de développement des technologies de l'avenir comme le photovoltaïque, les pompes à chaleur ou la climatisation solaire est également documentée . Les auteurs accordent une attention particulière aux mesures de rénovation et l'optimisation des processus opérationnels. 15 exemples de construction actuelles illustrent la façon dont les systèmes de construction sont ajustés individuellement pour différents usages. Le livre fournit une base de connaissances importante pour la planification des bâtiments économes en énergie.
