Analysis of New Generation Material Solutions of Lower Structure for Energy Efficient Buildings

Article Preview

Abstract:

The goal of this paper is to calculate of thermal physical and environmental parameters of lower structure to support decision at the design phase of the project. The solutions are towards reduced embodied environmental impacts and improved energy performance. This study uses life cycle analysis in system boundary from Cradle to Gate and focuses on environmental indicators such as embodied energy and emissions of CO2eq. and SO2eq. The selection and combination of materials influence amount of energy consumption and associated production of emissions during building operation phase.
