Providing a coherent and realistic vision of the implications of the energy issue in the future development of our cities; places emphasis on the links between very specific and technical topics and the most challenging issues concerning energy savings and the transition to a low carbon society. A great part of the built environment in most European cities consists of buildings dating from 60s to early 90s, for residential purposes: this stock clearly presents several problems related to its functional layout, as well as its energy/thermal behaviour. Applying sustainable and energy savings principles to retrofitting interventions on the stock above is one of the most urgent challenges to be met in the very near future. Giving some examples and case studies, this book investigates retrofitting interventions in terms of energy balance: from design strategies to choice of materials and components; from market trends analysis to economical assessment, from the targeted energy performance to the energy investments needed for achieving it.The reader will benefit from the real life experiences and related results described in this book and acquire all the tools for a constructive evaluation of the different options available to him/her, when faced with retrofitting interventions, thanks to a global view of all the issues involved.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Andrea Boeri, architect, Full Professor in Technology for Architecture at University of Bologna, Department of Architecture, where he teaches Construction Design Lab. His fields of expertise are: innovation technologies, energy efficiency and sustainable buildings, smart and resilient cities to face the challenge of the climate issue. He published books and articles about technological and constructive innovative solutions, materials, techniques and detail design, evaluation and strategic renovation of buildings and built environment. Prof Boeri is involved in different international projects, as coordinator of research groups or participant. Ernesto Antonini, architect (IUAV Venice 1984), Ph.D. (Rome "La Sapienza" University 1991), is Associated Professor of Technology for Architecture at Bologna University, Department of Architecture since 2005. From 1993 to 2001, he was the Head of R&D Dept. of Qua.S.Co., Bologna (Italy). From 1996 to 2004, he had been appointed as Professor of Building Technologies at IUAV, Venice (Italy). As researcher and then as senior scientist he participated in several research projects funded by both National and European Programs, mainly focused on innovation in building techniques, materials and components as well as on new tools and equipment for the building process and, lately, on recycling of construction & demolition waste and sustainable architecture. Jacopo Gaspari, architect (IUAV, Venice 2001), Ph.D. (Ferrara, 2006), researcher in Technology for Architecture at University of Bologna, Department of Architecture, where he teaches Materials and Construction Systems. He is currently involved in the following research fields: technologies for energy retrofitting and renovation; sustainable and passive buildings, design strategies for adaptation and transition of the built environment to a low carbon society, as well as mitigation action related to the climate change issue. The findings of his research activity are published in several international articles; he is also author of books on innovative technologies for building construction and on renovation strategies. Danila Longo, architect, Ph.D., researcher in Technology for Architecture at University of Bologna, Department of Architecture, where she teaches Construction Design Lab. Her fields of expertise are technologies for energy efficiency improvement and for quality control and sustainability in new and existing buildings as well as mitigative initiatives related to adaptation of built environment to climate change. Dr Longo is involved in several international research projects. She is author of books and international articles on technological and innovative construction systems. She is delegate for the international relations and researches for the Department of Architecture - UNIBO.
