Sustainable Construction Processes A Resource Text
ISBN: 9781405187596 $80.00 £49.95 €68.30 May -16 352 pages Sustainable Construction Processes: a resource text introduces the rationale and history behind the drivers for sustainable construction. The text then follows the decision-making process for each stage of a building's lifecycle to illuminate the requirements and challenges of designing, constructing and occupying sustainable buildings. The reader is led through the areas of sustainable procurement, discussing how buildings can meet clients’ needs but also the broader needs of society and the environment, without costing us and our communities too much. The elements of building design related to energy, water and materials are examined to demonstrate how construction processes can ensure that our buildings are truly sustainable. Assessment systems are introduced and their basic underlying principles discussed. The challenge of anticipating the behaviours of occupants and the practicalities of building with some of the new sustainable technologies are considered. Finally, the author sets out potential areas of growth and offers some contrasting visions for the future of sustainability. For students, this resource text offers an excellent base for learning how to construct, design and operate sustainable buildings. And for construction professionals, it helps achieve optimum solutions in the design, the process and the aftercare of buildings.
