Seismic Performance of a Green Roof Structure

نویسندگان

چکیده

Sustainability addresses the need to reduce structure’s impact on environment but does not environment’s structure. To explore this relationship, study focuses quantifying of green roofs or vegetated seismic responses such as story displacements, interstory drifts, and floor level accelerations. Using an archetype three-story steel moment frame, nonlinear time history analyses are conducted in OpenSees for a shallow deep roof using suite ground motions from various distances fault identify key trends sensitivities response.

Quantifying Evapotranspiration from a Green Roof Analytically

Green roofs are a common stormwater control measure used to help mitigate increased stormwater runoff caused by urbanization. Green roofs can retain upwards of 90% of rain given the appropriate conditions. Green roof design parameters, such as substrate composition and depth and plant type, affect the retention capabilities of green roofs by storing and allowing greater extraction of water by p...

Energetic Performance of a Green Roof in the Tropical Environment of La Reunion Island (indian Ocean)

The green roof technology provides environmental benefits by protecting the base roof membrane of buildings against solar radiation and temperature fluctuations and by helping to reduce building’s energy consumption by direct shading. Although several investigations have been performed to explore the energy performance of vegetated roofs as natural cooling devices, there is a lack of data conce...

Investigation of the Thermal Performance of Green Roof on a Mild Warm Climate

Global warming has become a threat of our time. It poses challenges to the existence of all biota on this earth and has made a clear impact on the level of energy and water consumption. No doubt, increase in the ambient temperature increases indoor and outdoor temperature level of the buildings which catalyzes the use of energy and cost intensive mechanical air-conditioning systems. Green roof ...

Fragility of a Structure, System, or Component for Seismic Performance

Structural engineers, researchers, code committees, and regulatory bodies have become increasingly interested in performance-based design of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) in the past few years. This has been demonstrated by the publication of codes for the performance-based design of traditional buildings, and by publication of a consensus standard for evaluating the seismic perfor...

Sedum cools soil and can improve neighboring plant performance during water deficit on a green roof

Green roofs have the potential to function as islands of biodiversity within urban and suburban environments. However, plant diversity is constrained by the harsh environment of a green roof, especially summertime water deficit and heat stress. We hypothesized that Sedum species, which are highly tolerant of the roof-top environment, would reduce peak soil temperature and increase performance o...
