As the environmental impact of buildings becomes increasingly acknowledged, the role of architects/designers and the initial decision-making process which determines materials, systems, and construction processes, become more critical. This timely book addresses sustainability in building design through development of a series of examples presented as three dimensional models of well-integrated building systems. Each model is composed of two paired integrated systems analysed with full graphical display, text, analytical drawings, graphs, and tabulated values, to demonstrate the models' performance in a particular environment. A performance metrics provided for each model will serve as a basis to evaluate the sustainability of the system based on its performance in the thermal environment, luminous environment, acoustic environment and its ability to address life-safety issues.Sustainable architectureBuildingsEnvironmental engineeringSustainable architecture.BuildingsEnvironmental engineering.720/.47Vassigh Shahin1822214Chandler Jason R.1968-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911006571103321Building systems integration for enhanced environmental performance4393092UNINA
