Improving The Sustainability Of The Built Environment By Training Its Workforce In More Efficient And Greener Ways Of Designing And Constructing Through The Horizon2020 Bimcert Project, Barry Mcauley, Avril Behan
Conference papers
The construction industry consumes up to 50% of mineral resources excavated from nature, generates about 33% of CO2 present in the atmosphere and is responsible for 40% of total global energy through both construction and operation of buildings. The realisation that current pervasive construction practices now face globalization, sustainability, and environmental concerns, as well as ever-changing legislation requirements and new skills needed for the information age has resulted in technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM) becoming a key enabler in navigating these barriers. To assist in overcoming these barriers, a number of funding initiatives have been put in place …

Delivering Energy Savings For The Supply Chain Through Building Information Modelling As A Result Of The Horizon 2020 Energy Bimcert Project, Barry Mcauley, Avril Behan
Delivering Energy Savings For The Supply Chain Through Building Information Modelling As A Result Of The Horizon 2020 Energy Bimcert Project, Barry Mcauley, Avril Behan
Conference papers
The global buildings sector is now responsible for 40% of final energy consumption as well as accounting for 33% of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions. This has resulted in a growing urgency to address energy and emissions from buildings and construction, to meet restrictive 2020 targets as specified by the European Union (EU). To achieve these targets a number of funding initiatives have been put in place through Horizon 2020 with a focus on BIM, due to it having the potential to rapidly produce energy outputs that enable design teams to analyse and compare the most cost-effective, energy-efficient options. However, despite …
Internal Design Of A Hydroponics Greenhouse For Tri Cycle Farms, Sarah Gould
Internal Design Of A Hydroponics Greenhouse For Tri Cycle Farms, Sarah Gould
Biological and Agricultural Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Hydroponics is the agricultural technique of growing plants without soil, using other growing media and added nutrients in a solvent. It is an attractive agricultural method over conventional agriculture because it is more water efficient, is less labor intensive, yields higher quality crops in less time, and is easier to control. According to the Digital Journal, “hydroponics crop value is anticipated to grow to USD 27.29 Billion by 2022 at an estimated CAGR of 6.39% from 2015 to 2020” (Sawant, 2016). Alongside this growing market acceptance for hydroponics, there is also a local demand that requires only a small transportation …

Elaboración Del Manual De Técnicas Sostenibles En Prácticas De Ecoturismo En Zonas De Postconflicto: Caso De Estudio Cubarral, Meta, Paula Carolina Perez Camargo
Ingeniería Ambiental y Sanitaria
La ruta de los ríos Casanare y Guayabero es un área marginada por el conflicto armado, atrasada en aspectos sociales y económicos, con poca infraestructura de acceso; además de un desconocimiento colectivo de su riqueza natural en términos de biodiversidad y paisaje. Para el óptimo aprovechamiento de todos los recursos que esta región posee es necesaria la elaboración de una estrategia de ecoturismo que vincule los aspectos ambientales y económicos y permita su máximo aprovechamiento, generando ingresos para los habitantes de la zona y una alternativa turística para sus visitantes. Es por lo anterior que se eligió el caso de …
