A Conceptual Model for an Environmental Building Stock Information System

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The building sector uses a considerable amount of
materials and energy. Knowledge about the existing
building stock, its impact on the environment in
relation to the use of material and energy, however,
is limited and targeted environmental objectives and
decision-making are based on vague information. In
this book a conceptual model for a computer-based
Environmental Building Stock Information System for
Sustainable Development is developed and the
conditions for establishing such a system are
examined, i.e. modelling aspects, relevance and
feasibility are studied. Potential applications are
discussed, such as benchmarking, planning issues and
scenario studies. This book is directed to actors
both on the regional and local levels, to academics,
municipal authorities, property managers, and all who
are concerned about sustainable development of
building stocks.
