Sustainable Construction de Charles J. Kibert

Sustainable Construction

Autor Charles J. Kibert
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 mar 2022

În analiza acestei ediții a cincea a lucrării Sustainable Construction, notăm cu interes integrarea unui ecosistem complex de standarde și sisteme de certificare globale. Autorul, regretatul Charles J. Kibert, propune o abordare tehnică riguroasă ce depășește simpla teorie, oferind specificații concrete pentru LEED v4.1, SITES, EDGE, WELL și Fitwell. Descoperim aici o resursă care aliniază proiectarea de înaltă performanță cu realitățile administrative și ecologice actuale.

Putem afirma că volumul este structurat pentru a ghida cititorul de la fundamentele etice și vocabularul sustenabilității către aplicații practice de design ecologic și biomimicrie. Primele capitole stabilesc contextul schimbător al clădirilor verzi, în timp ce secțiunile ulterioare detaliază evaluarea performanței și selecția materialelor. Un element distinctiv îl reprezintă includerea studiilor de caz, precum sediul Bloomberg din Londra sau proiectul OWP 11 din Stuttgart, care demonstrează aplicabilitatea conceptelor în proiecte de anvergură.

Cititorul care a aplicat ideile din Handbook of Green Building Design and Construction de Sam Kubba va găsi aici o completare esențială, în special în ceea ce privește reziliența construcțiilor și noile protocoale de sănătate a ocupanților (WELL). În contextul operei sale, Sustainable Construction rafinează conceptele teoretice explorate anterior în Construction Ecology, transformând viziunea sistemică a ecologiei industriale în soluții pragmatice de livrare a proiectelor. Progresia logică a conținutului, susținută de peste 600 de pagini de date tehnice, face din acest manual în limba engleză o referință solidă pentru ingineria civilă modernă.

De ce să citești această carte

Această lucrare este esențială pentru inginerii civili, arhitecții și profesioniștii care se pregătesc pentru examenul LEED Green Associate. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a celor mai noi coduri internaționale de construcție verde și a metodelor de evaluare a performanței. Este o resursă tehnică ce transformă sustenabilitatea dintr-un concept abstract într-un set de parametri de proiectare și execuție verificabili.

Despre autor

Charles J. Kibert (PhD, PE) a fost o figură centrală în domeniul construcțiilor sustenabile, activând ca profesor la Universitatea din Florida și director al Powell Center for Construction and Environment. Expert recunoscut în certificările LEED, el a contribuit activ la dezvoltarea politicilor de mediu prin implicarea în Florida Green Building Coalition și U.S. Green Building Council. Experiența sa vastă ca inginer și educator este reflectată în rigoarea tehnică a lucrărilor sale, Kibert fiind un pionier în aplicarea principiilor ecologiei industriale în sectorul construcțiilor.

Descriere

SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION

DISCOVER THE LATEST EDITION OF THE LEADING TEXTBOOK ON SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION AND GREEN BUILDING

In the newly revised Fifth Edition of Sustainable Construction: Green Building Design and Delivery, the late Dr. Charles J. Kibert delivers a rigorous overview of the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. In the leading textbook on sustainable building, the author provides thoroughly updated information on everything from materials selection to building systems.

Updated to reflect the latest building codes and standards, including LEED v4.1, the book offers readers coverage of international green building codes and standards, biomimicry, ecological design, focused assessment systems like SITES, EDGE, WELL, and Fitwell, and sustainable construction resilience. Readers will learn to think critically about all aspects of green building and benefit from the inclusion of:

  • A thorough introduction to sustainable construction, including the landscape for green buildings, sustainable development, sustainable design, and the rationale for high-performance green buildings
  • An exploration of the foundations of green buildings, including biomimicry and ecological design, basic concepts and vocabulary, and the green building movement
  • Practical discussions of ecological design, including a historical perspective, contemporary ecological design
  • In-depth examinations of high-performance green building assessment, including focused assessment systems and international building assessment systems

Perfect for upper level undergraduate and graduate level students in architecture, architectural technology, civil engineering, and construction management, Sustainable Construction is also an indispensable resource for anyone studying for the LEED Green Associate exam, as well as industry professionals and building owners.

Notă biografică
