The durability of a building construction material is defined as "the ability of a product to maintain its required performance over a given or long time, under the influence of foreseeable actions." Therefore, depending on the intended use of the product and its service conditions, the durability can be a serious problem from both a technological and economic point of view. Also discussed in this book is an experimental analysis of the behaviour of timber-framed walls used as main bearing capacity elements in the construction of prefabricated timber structures. The design of energy efficient buildings; and the characterization of advanced structural materials by acoustic emission indices is also examined.

Sustainable Construction Technologies: Life-Cycle Assessment provides practitioners with a tool to help them select technologies that are financially advantageous even though they have a higher initial cost. Chapters provide an overview of LCA and how it can be used in conjunction with other indicators to manage construction. Topics covered include indoor environment quality, energy efficiency, transport, water reuse, materials, land use and ecology, and more. The book presents a valuable tool for construction professionals and researchers that want to apply sustainable construction techniques to their projects. Practitioners will find the international case studies and discussions of worldwide regulation and standards particularly useful. - Provides a framework for analyzing sustainable construction technologies and economic viability - Introduces key credit criteria for different sustainable construction technologies - Covers the most relevant construction areas - Includes technologies that can be employed during the process of construction, or to the product of the construction process, i.e. buildings - Analyzes international rating systems and provides supporting case studies
