Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

This book presents a methodology for the design construction monitoring optimization and post-occupancy evaluation of net-zero and positive-energy communities based on the experiences gained in the EU Horizon 2020 ZERO-PLUS project. It describes the steps tools and methods developed during the project providing practical information for the energy and construction sector that will be of interest to students engineers architects developers and professionals working around high performance architecture and sustainable communities. Through the ZERO-PLUS project a consortium of 32 partners from eight countries including academic institutions technology providers architects and construction companies designed four communities covering completely different geo-climatic regions construction practices and cultural backgrounds in Cyprus Italy France and the UK. The communities were designed optimized constructed monitored handed over to tenants post-occupancy evaluated and troubleshooted through a system of continuous collaboration and data acquisition. This book presents these case studies and shows how the project targets of reducing electricity consumption below 20 kWh/m2/y increasing electricity production from Renewable Energy Systems to over 50 kWh/m2/y and at cheaper costs when compared to current zero-energy buildings were reached and surpassed. These cases demonstrate that a holistic and interactive approach to design and construction can bring communities a high standard of sustainability. The key features of the book include: Practical guidance drawn from the interdisciplinary international and remote cooperation between experts from academia and industry across the construction sector A survey of the state-of-the-art on net-zero and positive-energy communities including the experience and the lessons learned from previous projects and from the ZERO-PLUS project Descriptions of novel emerging renewable energy technologies integrated into real case study communities to achieve the energy generation target of the communities A comprehensive set of approaches tools guidelines best practices challenges and lessons learned from the five-year ZERO-PLUS project and the completion of four residential case studies to inform the reader of how to achieve affordable net-zero energy communities Four typologies of residential communities located in different climatic conditions are presented touching on the critical aspects of the design construction monitoring and occupancy phase A discussion of future trends for developing communities that are more liveable accessible and sustainable and which can comply with new energy policies in a way that is affordable for the owners and residents. | Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

Logic of Arithmetic

Logic of Arithmetic

For propositional logic it can be decided whether a formula has a deduction from a finite set of other formulas. This volume begins with a method to decide this for the quantified formulas of those fragments of arithmetic which express the properties of order-plus-successor and of order-plus-addition (Pressburger arithmetic). It makes use of an algorithm eliminating quantifiers which in turn is also applied to obtain consistency proofs for these fragments. | Logic of Arithmetic

Underpinning and Retention

Underpinning and Retention

The failure of foundations leads to distortion of building superstructures and a loss of structural integrity. If allowed to continue unchecked this process will lead ultimately to non-serviceability and demolition. The chief and most successful remedial measure is to underpin the structure and restore full or partial structural integrity. Various underpinning methods exist and choosing a particular method or selection of methods is the job of the engineer. Consistent with the underpinning procedure is the need to retain the affected structure plus the surrounding ground and/or buildings. | Underpinning and Retention
