Achieving an adequate indoor acoustic comfort environment is one of the main priorities to avoid adverse effects caused by noise. Façades are constructive elements most likely be retrofitted due their delimiting function between and outdoor space. This study compares façade requirements established for new existing buildings in current national building regulations. The assessment regulations a...

sensus on controversial issues such as guaranteeing access to affordable drugs, stiffened measures against the tobacco and alcohol industries, and regulations to curb international trade in unhealthy products. It seems the United Nations’ (UN) newly minted political declaration on noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes and chronic pulmonary disease,...

Abstract. Semantic 3D building models are widely available and used in numerous applications. Such display rich semantics but no façade openings, chiefly owing to their aerial acquisition techniques. Hence, refining models’ façades using dense, street-level, terrestrial point clouds seems a promising strategy. In this paper, we propose method of combining visibility analysis neural networks for...

Abstract The characteristics of the façade are architectural elements in diversity shapes each building. Architectural Typology is an approach to identify attributes define similarities and differences a building object. In area Loji Wetan Surakarta which has connection with Vastenburg fortress, there still some colonial buildings Dutch heritage that exist. This study aims typology on Surakarta...

One of the most important methods of saving energy and providing indoor comfort conditions of buildings is the careful design of the façades. A “double skin glass façade” is optimally one of the best options that control the heat interaction between indoor and outdoor spaces. Two kinds of heating energy is usually transmitted through exterior envelope “conduction” and “radiation”. Double skin g...
