This study proposes a concept and workflow for solar, context-adaptive reusable facades. Integrating solar control with parametric facade design, the uses radiation to inform modules variable openness or properties (e.g. frit cover), enabling envelopes adapt urban context changes while promoting circularity. The method was tested through simulations, assessing daylight, glare, energy circularity in changing scenarios. A Solar Circularity Indicator (SCI) introduced track façade alterations reuse. In 100m new obstruction scenario, 79% of were maintained, 29% altered reused, yielding an 85% SCI. Sunlight Autonomy metrics aligned well Re-design improved Spatial Daylight by up 4% minimal increase (<1%). Our solution provided 2% more useful daylight (100–3000lux) than glazed facades 11% less glare. provides framework circular, performance-based designs that preserve aesthetics adaptability.

Building façades represent one of the most critical elements affecting a city’s quality life, and they impact country’s economic income by attracting visitors. However, performance data on are limited or incomplete, making it challenging for designers to evaluate their effectiveness in energy efficiency, thermal performance, durability, other key metrics. This paper presents comprehensive framework evaluating prioritizing material selection criteria building cladding, establishing relationship with available alternatives, integrating decision-making processes Information Modeling (BIM) automate Value Engineering (VE) concept. The from literature international standard manual were identified, weight was then evaluated using SWARA (stepwise assessment ratio analysis). Additionally, WASPAS (weighted aggregated sum product assessment) utilized alternative cladding materials based defined associated (QW). life cycle cost (LCC) alternatives computed. VE computed ranked QW LCC alternatives. procedure connected BIM model assessment, specifying necessary parameters computation. A case study an office façade conducted validate proposed framework. In this study, significant wind load resistance, insulation. approach enables executives selection, ensuring efficient processes. method its results subjected expert testing, satisfaction rate exceeded 80%, confirming framework’s reliability enhances understanding methodologies provides valuable contribution field construction management.

The aim of the presented research was to evaluate impacts modifications technical properties fly ash-based geopolymer composites, particularly focusing on enhancing thermal insulation. Through utilization a generalized utility function, optimal dosages additives such as perlite sand, waste powder, and cenospheres were determined. study aimed increase insulation composites while maintaining satisfactory compressive flexural strength. results indicated that dust significantly influenced characteristics composites; an exception strength, for which these did not show statistically significant effect. average strength values, except mixes with poor workability, at least 3.5 MPa (RILEM class II). Notably, balanced dosage additives, around 75 kg per cubic meter mixture in total mixture, yielded most favorable outcomes terms isolation (0.18–0.24 W/(m·K) workability (cone immersion 40–70 mm). Additionally, emerged potentially superior modifier due its origin. However, further analysis considering life cycle parameters including carbon footprint water would be necessary validate this claim. Overall, highlights potential utilizing perlite-based modifiers enhance geopolymers addressing environmental concerns.

As the global population ages, World Health Organization promotes “Healthy Aging” to enhance quality of life for elderly. In China, with its substantial aging population, “9073” elderly care mode, which prioritizes community-based care, was implemented in 2011. However, specific needs residents different climatic and cultural contexts are often overlooked. This study addresses this gap by examining how community green space design can support healthy aging, using Suzhou as a case due significant population. research examines relationship between environments, needs, behaviors. Our findings reveal that have complex seeking safety, comfort, health, social interaction, spiritual richness simultaneously. A mismatch observed their stated preferences features like seating shade actual usage patterns, suggesting existing spaces may not fully meet needs. underscores importance incorporating both expressed proactive strategies benefit spaces. These insights China 2030” strategy promote well-being elders, contributing sustainable urban regeneration.

Purpose The presentation of all required criteria that a facade should fulfill needs to be revised, particularly considering novel perspectives on facade. This study aims fill this need because leaving it unsolved leads the specialists evaluate and design facades based insufficient data resulting in imprecise decisions both areas. Design/methodology/approach An exploratory was conducted library resources identify extract criteria, which were coded openly axially, categorized via new standpoint. Shannon method also used analyze categories’ frequencies. Findings In total, 42 found organized five categories: “Environmental Aspects,” “Social Impacts,” “Economic “Efficiency Effectiveness” “Technical Issues.” adds 20 including “Natural Resource Depletion” “Clients’ Preferences,” assessment compared previous studies. Compared similar research, Aspects” is augmented field's categorizations, whereas Impacts” are provided more extensive way. Research limitations/implications research proceeded until theoretical saturation; therefore, there no claim most comprehensive. findings instrumental professionals for making practical decisions. concentration frequency literature will offer an insight academics about pioneering fields development. Originality/value presents comprehensive up-to-date set approaches see as multifunctional component must address various requirements beyond aesthetics.
