The author takes an interdisciplinary / multidisciplinary approach to the subject that analyzes several different scientific fields connected to building research—sustainability, sustainable architecture, energy efficiency in buildings, and building envelopes—while approaching other collateral domains, including history, archaeology, botanics, physics, engineering, and landscape architecture. Alternative Envelope Components for Energy-Efficient Buildings will be a welcome resource for researchers, students, and postgraduates in the fields of energy, building materials, and renewable energy, as well as architects, engineers, and specialists in industries related to building products. Looks at the impact of building envelopes on energy usage; Offers readers an introduction to the principles of sustainability; Presents passive and active approaches to using solar devices.Green Energy and Technology,1865-3537Sustainable architectureEnergy policyEnergy and stateBuilding materialsRenewable energy sourcesSustainable Architecture/Green BuildingsEnergy Policy, Economics and ManagementBuilding MaterialsRenewable EnergySustainable architecture.Energy policy.Energy and state.Building materials.Renewable energy sources.Sustainable Architecture/Green Buildings.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Building Materials.Renewable Energy.720.472Dabija Ana-Maria929085MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910495158403321Alternative Envelope Components for Energy-Efficient Buildings2088054UNINA
