Annotation. This guide shows facility managers how to conduct a roofing system assessment and choose the optimal roofing system at the minimum cost. Reid, a facility engineer, covers weather effects on roofing systems, roofing construction materials, insulation and weatherproofing membranes, energy system calculations, fasteners and flashings, penetrations through the system membrane, project management, unconventional roofing structure, warranty and maintenance, and safety and liability.

Sustainable Steel Buildings betrachtet Stahl und seine Einsatzmöglichkeiten als nachhaltigen Konstruktionswerkstoff. Es bietet einen umfassenden Überblick hinsichtlich Nachhaltigkeit und zeigt auf, wie Stahl mit einem hohen Maß an Nachhaltigkeit für Gebäude genutzt werden kann. Das Buch konzentriert sich auf die Vor- und Nachteile von Stahl und wie diese Eigenschaften im Rahmen internationaler Zertifizierungssysteme eingesetzt werden können (DGNB, LEED, BREEAM, openhouse etc). Um ein möglichst umfassendes Spektrum abzudecken, behandelt das Buch die folgenden Themen: * Der Hintergrund nachhaltigen Bauens * Grundlagen einer ressourcenschonenden Bauweise * Methoden und Gestaltungsmittel für die Bereitstellung nachhaltiger Gebäude * Stahl und sein Abschneiden in Zertifizierungssystemen, sowohl Kriterien als auch werkstoffspezifische Antworten * Informationen und Daten hinsichtlich relevanter Stahlbauprodukte * Beispiele nachhaltiger Gebäude in Stahlbauweise.

Principles for Evaluating Building Materials in Sustainable Construction: Healthy and Sustainable Materials for the Built Environment provides a comprehensive overview of the issues associated with the selection of materials for sustainable construction, proposing a holistic and integrated approach. The book evaluates the issues involved in choosing materials from an ecosystem services perspective, from the design stage to the impact of materials on the health of building users. The three main sections of the book discuss building materials in relation to ecosystem services, the implications of materials choice at the design stage, and the impact of materials on building users and their health. The final section focuses on specific case studies that illustrate the richness of solutions that existed before the rise of contemporary construction and that are consistent with a sustainable approach to creating built environments. These are followed by modern examples which apply some, if not all, of the principles discussed in the first three sections of the book. Provides a holistic and integrated approach to the issues associated with the selection of materials for sustainable construction Provides a thorough understanding of ecosystem services based on ecology research for built environment design Provides an original review of the impact of materials on human health Provides case studies to illustrate the points above

This manual has been designed specifically to guide the facility manager in making the best decisions regarding roofing systems replacements, repairs and upgrades. The full scope of current roofing applications and building envelope technologies are covered in detail, including both conventional and non-conventional roofing structures. You should learn about the developments in roofing materials and cladding systems, as well as how factors such as weather conditions and thermal expansion and contraction impact roofing design and material selection. Other topics include insulation and waterproofing membrane requirements, energy system calculations, fasteners and flashings, local codes and standards, life cycles of roofing systems, environmental considerations, roofing project management, warranty and maintenance of roofing systems, and roofing safety and liability. This book should provide a welcome resource for the facility manager seeking to modify, add to or improve his/her facility's roofing systems.

Cost models underlie all the techniques used in construction cost and price forecasting, yet until relatively recently industry has been unfamiliar with their characteristics and properties. An understanding of the various types of cost model is vital to enable effective cost control and the development of future forecasting techniques. This volume brings together more than 20 seminal contributions to building cost modelling and introduces the major landmarks in progress and thinking in this field: * strategies and directions * explorations in cost modelling * cost-product/process modelling * dealing with uncertainty The strong techniques bias of this book will appeal to construction professionals involved in estimating, as well as researchers and students of building economics.
