    Sammanfattning : Buildings give rise to several environmental problems over the whole life cycle. To reduce these, technical measures with focus on energy are commonly used. However, environmental problems are more than energy and cannot be solved with technical measures alone. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Primary energy use of residential buildings : implications of materials, modelling and design approaches

    Författare :Uniben Yao Ayikoe Tettey; Leif Gustavsson; Ambrose Dodoo; Jan-Olof Dalenbäck; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; primary energy use; material production; simulation; input parameters; design strategies; climate change; overheating; residential buildings; Technology byts ev till Engineering ; Teknik; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Buildings can play an essential role in the transition to a sustainable society. Different strategies, including improved energy efficiency in buildings, substitution of carbon intensive materials and fuels, efficient energy supply among others can be employed for this purpose.

  7. 15. Environmental Assessment Tools for Neighbourhoods and Buildings in relation to Environment, Architecture, and Architects

    Författare :Marita Wallhagen; Göran Finnveden; Tove Malmqvist; Ola Eriksson; Josefin Wangel; Koen Steemers; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; architects; architecture; buildings; environment; environmental assessment tools; environmental sustainability; neighbourhoods; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores Neighbourhood and Building Environmental Assessment Tools’ (NBEATs’) function as assessment tools and decision support, and their relation to environment, architecture and architects. This is done by analysing, testing, and discussing a number of NBEATs (LEED-NC, Code for Sustainable Homes, EcoEffect, LEED-ND, BREEAM-C, and ENSLIC-tool), their manuals and use. LÄS MER
