The appropriateness of tools for the Zambian building industry depends on whether the tools adequately meet minimum green buildings standards and the country’s environmental aspirations. The utilization of green building rating tools is important if Zambia is to achieve the real benefits of green buildings, however very little is known about the levels of utilization in Zambia. A cross-sectional study of 115 professionals from the building industry in Zambia was undertaken using a sequential mixed method approach, to investigate the level of utilization, preferred criteria and, the barriers and drivers to the utilization of tools. The significance of the study was that it demonstrated the association between utilization of green building rating tools and environmental, technological, economic, and social green buildings practices by selected professionals in the Zambian building industry. There is a need to use materials and practices that are locally based and promote the local economy. The technical needs were met in tools, that were considered easy to use, interesting and comprehensive. Some of the green building rating tools were considered unsuitable due to the absence of appropriate criteria and the main economic challenge was the high cost of certification. The association was significant between utilization and those involved in a variety of projects than those who were involved in only residential buildings. Barriers to utilization were a lack of government regulations on green buildings designs and the high cost of certification. The drivers were environmental benefits, the interest of developers in green buildings, and having technical skills. The study recommends a review of the current building regulations to include green buildings practices and materials and adaptation of appropriate rating tools.展开更多

文摘The objective of this research project was fulfilled through creation of a contemporary home,that of which undeniably projects modernization due to key LEED(leadership in energy and environmental design)features.Design of this project was carefully supervised by the civil engineering department at California State University,Northridge.The design incorporates a 3-story single-family home with a steel infrastructure.These design properties had a positive impact in LEED specific adjustments which assisted with the overall increase in sustainability.The six civil engineering senior students were able to successfully create a cost analysis and compare the benefits of a LEED incorporated design as opposed to a standard residential home.The difference between the two is evident as the highly sustainable building resulted in a 7.6%increase in overall cost.However,as the savings in energy progress over a 9-year period,the home will inevitably reduce the overall cost to the owner.This research project aided in allowing this diverse team of students to be exposed to real life scenarios,with incorporation of their knowledge acquired from the past 4 years.The diversity and teamwork of this group allowed for equal opportunities of innovation and leadership.Skills such as proper communication and critical thinking will significantly impact them as they progress in their careers as civil engineers.
文摘The ways which are used today in order to light houses, offices, and most of </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">indoor areas are inefficient as a lot of energy is consumed unnecessarily during the day time. Mainly this problem</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:""> </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">because the interior lighting design consider the worst case when the light service is at night, </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">which</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> is not always valid. Also in most cases the lighting system design rel</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ies</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> on people to control the lights switching on and off. This problem is also one of the design concern</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> in Green Building. In this paper, a solution to this problem and a method for people’s comfort who use the indoor facilities in industrial building</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> is presented. In the proposed smart lighting system, lights switch on automatically when there is somebody in the room or in the occupied space and switch off when there is no occupancy. In addition to this known technique, adjustment of the brightness level of the lights will be possible via the personal computer or any other smart device. In this method, for the illumination level in the area, where is needed to be controlled for better energy saving, </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">light automatically is measured by </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">sensor and considering the amount of background lights coming from outside, automatically the brightness of lights is controlled to reach the preset level that determined for that room. By the means of this method, it is possible to provide better user comfort, avoid human forcedness to switch the light on and off, and hence effective energy sav</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ing</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">. Arduino controller is used to build the controller and to demonstrate the results. Economic analysis was done to calculate the percentage of the energy saving that can be obtained by implementing the proposed smart lighting controller. As an outcome </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">of </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the economic analysis, energy saving norm for an office with </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">a </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">standard size was calculated.
