Environmental Impact Assessment of Buildings
Author: Wahidul Biswas
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3039282433
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
This Special Issue covers a wide range of areas—including building orientation, service life, use of photocatalytically active structures and PV facades, implications of transportation system, building types (i.e., high rise, multilevel, commercial, residential), life cycle assessment, and structural engineering—that need to be considered in the environmental impact assessment of buildings, and the chapters include case studies across the globe. Consideration of these strategies would help reduce energy and material consumption, environmental emissions, and waste generation associated with all phases of a building’s life cycle. Chapter 1 demonstrates that green star concrete exhibits the same structural properties as conventional concrete in Australia. Chapter 2 showed that the use of TiO2 as a photocatalyst on the surface of construction materials with a suitable stable binding agent, such as aggregates, would enable building walls to absorb NOx from air. This study found that TiO2 has the potential to reduce ambient concentrations of NOx from areas where this pollutant becomes concentrated under solar irradiation. Chapter 3 presents the life cycle assessment of architecturally integrated glass–glass photovoltaics in building facades to find the appropriate material composition for a multicolored PV façade offering improved environmental performance. Chapter 4 shows that urban office buildings lacking appropriate orientation experienced indoor overheating. Chapter 5 details four modeling approaches that were implemented to estimate buildings’ response towards load shedding. Chapter 6 covers the life cycle GHG emissions of high-rise residential housing block to discover opportunities for environmental improvement. Chapter 7 discusses an LCA framework that took into account variation in the service life of buildings associated with the use of different types of materials. Chapter 8 presents a useful data mining algorithm to conduct life cycle asset management in residential developments built on transport systems.

The Battle for Justice in Palestine
Author: Ali Abunimah
Publisher: Haymarket Books
ISBN: 1608463478
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
A major proponent of Palestinian liberation offers a comprehensive analysis of the current conflict with Israel—and the potential for Palestinian victory. As the longstanding tensions between Israel and Palestine continue to erupt into violence, Ali Abunimah offers astute insights into the politics behind the headlines. In The Battle for Justice in Palestine, Abunimah looks at the shifting tides of Palestine and the Israelis in a neoliberal world—and makes a compelling and surprising case for why the Palestine solidarity movement just might win. Abunimah is a Palestinian-American journalist and major proponent of a one-state solution with equality for all. In The Battle for Justice in Palestine, he shares his hopeful vision of victory against Israeli apartheid and colonialism. “This is the book to read to understand the present bizarre and ongoing complexity of the Palestine/Israel tragedy.” —Alice Walker
