In Design and Management of Sustainable Built Environments, an international group of experts provide comprehensive and the most up-to-date knowledge, covering sustainable urban and building design, management and assessment. The best practice case studies of the implementation of sustainable technology and management from the BRE Innovation Park are included. Design and Management of Sustainable Built Environments will be of interest to urban and building designers, environmental engineers, and building performance assessors.  It will be particularly useful as a reference book for undergraduate and postgraduate students in the built environment field. .Sustainable architectureSustainable buildingsDesign and constructionSustainable architecture.Sustainable buildingsDesign and construction.720.47Yao Runming1742832MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910438045603321Design and management of sustainable built environments4186888UNINA
