Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Bedeutung von Dämmstoffen ist ungebrochen hoch. Das Angebot steigt kontinuierlich. Durch ihre wärmedämmende Wirkung tragen sie zur Einsparung von Heiz- und Kühlenergie sowie zur Reduktion des CO2-Austoßes bei. Detail Practice Insulating Materials bietet einen umfassenden Katalog von Dämmstoffen für den Hochbau. Erläuterungen zu den einzelnen Dämmstoffarten geben Aufschluss über enthaltene Rohstoffe, typische Eigenschaften, Anwendungsbereiche und Lieferformen. Tabellen mit physikalischen Kennwerten und Angaben zum Brandverhalten sowie Hinweise zur Gesundheits- und Umweltverträglichkeit machen die Dämmstoffe vergleichbar. Ein Überblick über die europäischen Rechtsvorschriften sowie Dämmstoffnormen mit Erläuterungen zur Produktkennzeichnung und -zertifizierung hilft bei der Planung und Ausschreibung. Für die Auswahl des passenden Dämmstoffes werden Kriterien für Konstruktion und Anwendung vorgestellt. Ergänzend hierzu eröffnet die differenzierte Betrachtung der ökologischen Wirkungen von Dämmstoffen ein großes Optimierungspotenzial für ihren nachhaltigen Einsatz.

Download or read book Advances in Cryogenic Engineering written by K. Timmerhaus and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First International Cryogenic Materials Conference (ICMC) provided a new forum for the presentation of low-temperature materials research. The confer ence, held in conjunction with the 1975 Cryogenic Engineering Conference, provided materials research personnel with excellent exposure to current develop ments in the cryogenics field and beneficial interactions with designers of cryogenic systems. Because of the large response to a late call for papers, the enthusiasm and encouragement at the meeting, and the wide spectrum and high quality of papers, the Second International Cryogenic Materials Conference is being planned along with the 1977 Cryogenic Engineering Conference for Boulder, Colorado, in the summer of 1977. The success of the First International Cryogenic Materials Conference was certainly in large measure due to the excellent hospitality of our Canadian hosts, the Royal Military College of Canada and Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. In particular, the efforts of A. C. Leonard and his staff ensured an excellent conference and a pleasant and memorable visit to Canada. The Cryogenic Engineering Conference Board was both generous and skillful in helping to initiate this new conference and their guidance and acceptance is gratefully acknowledged. The Cryogenic Engineering Conference program chairman, M. J. Hiza, greatly facilitated the interaction for the two conferences and provided valuable assistance in generat ing a workable program. The proceedings of the 1975 Cryogenic Engineering Conference are published as Volume 21 of the Advances in Cryogenic Engineering and include many papers indicating innovative use of new cryogenic materials properties data.

Download or read book The Whole Building Handbook written by Varis Bokalders and published by Earthscan. This book was released on 2010 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Whole Building Handbook is a compendium of all the issues and strategies that architects need to understand to design and construct sustainable buildings for a sustainable society. The authors move beyond the current definition of sustainability in architecture, which tends to focus on energy-efficiency, to include guidance for architecture that promotes social cohesion, personal health, renewable energy sources, water and waste recycling systems, permaculture, energy conservation - and crucially, buildings in relation to their place. The authors offer a holistic approach to sustainable architecture and authoritative technical advice, on: * How to design and construct healthy buildings, through choosing suitable materials, healthy service systems, and designing a healthy and comfortable indoor climate, including solutions for avoiding problems with moisture, radon and noise as well as how to facilitate cleaning and maintenance. * How to design and construct buildings that use resources efficiently, where heating and cooling needs and electricity use is minimized and water-saving technologies and garbage recycling technologies are used. * How to 'close' organic waste, sewage, heat and energy cycles. For example, how to design a sewage system that recycles nutrients. * Includes a section on adaptation of buildings to local conditions, looking at how a site must be studied with respect to nature, climate and community structure as well as human activities. The result is a comprehensive, thoroughly illustrated and carefully structured textbook and reference.
