Klappentext zu „Sustainability, Energy and Architecture “
This unique volume offers insights from renowned experts in energy-efficient building from the world over, providing a multi-faceted overview of the state-of-the-art in energy-efficient architecture. It opens by defining what constitutes a sustainable building, suggesting bases for sorely needed benchmarks, then explains the most important techniques and tools available to engineers and architects exploring green building technologies. It covers such pivotal issues as daylighting, LED lighting, integrating renewables such as solar thermal and cooling, retrofitting, LEED and similar certification efforts, passive houses, net-zero and close-zero structures, water recycling, and much more. Highlighting best practices for commercial buildings and private homes in widely varied climates and within vastly different socioeconomic contexts, this illustrated reference will guide architects and engineers in making sustainable choices in building materials and methods. Unlike other green building references available, this book does not focus on the details of codes and standards, but instead demonstrates how energy efficiency can be achieved in practice by sharing the real-world experiences of experts who have implemented sustainable architecture projects successfully.Autoren-Porträt von Ali Sayigh

and Technology Foundation) and Regional Conferences have been held in Sweden, Malaysia, Korea, Indonesia, Australia, UAE, Libya to name but a few. Prof Sayigh has been running an annual international seminar on all aspects of renewable energy since 1990, in the UK and abroad. In total there have been 85 seminars. Prof Sayigh had supervised and graduated more than 34 Ph D students and 64 M Sc students under his supervision at Reading University and University of Hertfordshire when he was Professor 1986-2004. He edited, contributed, and written more than 32-books, and published more than 500-papers in various international journals and Conferences. In 2000-2009 initiated and worked closely with Sovereign Publication Company to produce the most popular magazine at annual bases called Renewable Energy which distributed freely to more than 6,000 readers around the world.
