Façade engineering is facing an era of extraordinary challenge to meet the surge in demand for buildings that are environmentally sustainable and enhance occupant wellbeing. Facades, also known as building envelopes, play a major role resource-efficiency quality its indoor environment. Consequently, development effective design approaches crucial generating appropriate façade solutions. complex multi-disciplinary involving several oftentimes conflicting performance criteria. Systematic holistic procedures are, therefore, required achieve optimal trade-offs. Over last decades, researchers this field have used computational tools power address challenging problem within context multi-criteria approaches. This paper reviews existing research field, presents state-of-the-art review from simple advanced decision-making currently at early stages, where decisions disproportionally large impact on performance. The provides complete description variables objectives typically involved. Alternative methodologies regarding discrete automated optimization reviewed, each with salient pros/cons, overall conclusions drawn. Finally, discusses ongoing trends needs, namely, uncertainty-based enable more informed decision-making; inclusion structural/seismic safety considerations process higher socio-economic benefits; integration smart information modeling processing technologies facilitate smarter decisions; adoption integrated promote climate-adaptive solutions resilience.

A holistic two-stage decision-making methodology for passive and active building design strategies under uncertainty

Building and Environment, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 251, P. 111211 - 111211

Published: Jan. 13, 2024

In the last decade, many studies focused on finding optimal design solutions considering trade-offs between different aspects of building design. Accordingly, multi-objective optimization (MOO) approaches have been increasingly applied in industry. However, certain must be deepened to ensure a more effective decision-making process early planning phase. On one hand, uncertainties should considered before making decisions robustness solutions; other are made at times planning, and sequential order modeled. This paper presents holistic two-stage stochastic (MOSO)-II framework minimize environmental impact global warming potential (GWP) cost throughout entire life cycle (phases A1-A3, B4, B6 C3-C4), passive active strategies two consecutive stages, under uncertainty. Herein, individual/useand political/market considered. As proof concept, proposed is case study for generic zone multi-family terraced residential type with solid brick construction. The advantages validated by comparing it alternative single-stage MOSO frameworks. Results show that MOSO-II can deliver smaller range better performance terms lower GWP cost. It indicates effectively assist planners reducing effort choosing proper solution. Secondly, results also emphasize importance sustainable planning. addition, energy mix structure sources carefully adjusted future promote ecologically
