This study aims to reduce heat gain and minimise cooling energy through building envelope material as a passive design intervention strategy achieve thermal comfort. Integrated Learning Building in the Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Indonesia, is used case due its air conditioning setting. First, characteristic calculated using Overall Thermal Transmission Value (OTTV) calculation determin...

This review systematically analyses the most relevant contributions published in area of toxicity building materials and their evaluation from perspective life cycle analysis to give a critical view relationship between two fields. For this review, systematic literature methodology was chosen. With methodology, it is possible identify important sources obtain complete reading state question. Th...

During the operation of buildings, repairs, modernizations, adaptations, renovations, and reconstructions parts historic objects are performed. There is often problem using a different material or construction technology than was originally used, for variety reasons. For example, these materials not currently manufactured, with necessary higher performance values (insulation, strength). The aim...
