Research on sustainability in the building sector currently focuses mainly technical solutions while little attention is given to how behaviour influences uptake of these solutions. Bounded rationality may have a significant impact effective implementation more sustainable technologies that are already available. However, empirical evidence effects bounded sector, such as cognitive biases, stil...

This article covers the Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD) definition Nearly Zero (NZEBs). Improving building efficiency to reduce energy consumption achieving cost-optimal was major objective in this paper. paper presents common insulation material utilization during operation process, besides physical properties materials. On other hand, compared cost-effectiveness and safety conditions m...

Asia and Middle East represent one of the most dynamic regions in the world which has experienced fast economic and technological growth. Access to clean and affordable water is essential for building resilience and maintaining human’s well-being and livelihood development in this region. Likewise, various energy resources are fundamental to support stable economic and social progress for bette...

An objective measure of building energy performance is crucial for performance assessment and rational decision making on energy retrofits and policies of existing buildings. One of the most popular measures of building energy performance benchmarking is Energy Use Intensity (EUI, kwh/m2). While EUI is simple to understand, it only represents the amount of consumed energy per unit floor area ra...

Introduction: Energy consumption rates in residential buildings rely heavily on the modularity of construction. Methods: Traditional building models Jordan are considered dominant which modern technology is not taken into account order to reduce energy consumption. Recently, interest construction schemes has appeared with intention saving because its high costs. The objective this research help...
