Innovation in Building is actual, necessary and muss be sustainable. New technology, better performance, planet conscious.

[WorldGBC Europe @WorldGBC_Europe]

In our advocacy manifesto published today we remind @EU_Commission that Level(s) is the key tool to bring buildings into the circular economy and drive demand for a built environment that benefits the economy, society and the environment ➡️ https://t.co/aCvdZ9L4JE

Excellent piece by @willjennings80 INSTANT is the key word here. Tell us what you're doing: @haworthtompkins @FosterPartners @FCBStudios @ZHA_News @ArchitectsJrnl @WHurst1 ‘Without instant action the Architects Declare paper promise is meaningless’ https://t.co/kwp9516PrN

When creating a #newbuildingmaterial the only way to achieve #betterperformance is #research, #testing, failing, #comparing and trying something new.Only like that the #IMPRESScladding panels have the #bestperformance

[IMPRESSproject @Impressproject_]

IMPRESS cladding panels:
1.#highPerformance Fibre Reinforced #Concrete
2.Carbon fibre reinforced polymer shear connector
3.Vacuum insulation with foam insulation protection #VIP
ensures a lightweight easy installation + durable solution for #retrofit

The #IMPRESSpanels have been developed using studied and tested #materials to achieve #highthermalperformance and #highstructural characteristics. making them a great cladding solution supported by a #BIM based Integrated #DesignproceSS

[IMPRESSproject @Impressproject_]

Experts have created, developed and tested the #prefabricated #IMPRESSpanels. This is the way to obtain a #highperformance thermally and structurally product with low #embodiedenergy.

[Bristol Energy Network @BristolEnergyNw]

Lifecycle analysis showing the best materials with overall low impact (#embodiedenergy) & energy efficiency materials must now be the fabric of #futurehome to achieve the #netzerocaron homes of the future.

[IMPRESSproject @Impressproject_]

To create #lowcarbonbuildings, reducing #embodiedenergy to lessen the overall impact of the built environment must become a major priority when selecting #buildingmaterials.

Small #glassfibres replace conventional steel reinforcement providing #structural and ductile behavior of the #IMPRESS cladding panels.
Deformation and stress distribution in flexural test.
The #reinforcedconcrete displays a high dosage of coated #highperformance glass fibers.

First measure helping against #climatechange: Price carbon emissions. Production of goods and #LifeCycle must be considered.High #emissions shouldn't result in a more affordable product.

#GCARE follow-up article on #GreenInfrastructure #modelling from @iSCAPEproject with our #USEPA #Cornell #Bologna #UCD collaboratiors. We tackle the question: how can green infrastructure impacts of air pollution be modelled in dispersion models? https://t.co/N51Xz4mqih

The thermal imaging study of demonstration building, shows great heat loss through windows and doors(as expected), and can be compared with the low levels of #heatloss through the #impress #prefabricated panels.

Our latest Environmental Product Declaration (#EPD) shows that the #carbonfootprint of concrete pipes in the UK have dropped by almost 9% since 2010 → https://t.co/xGLlq1YSku.

I’m excited to discuss the impact of #OpenData in our work in the #H2020 projects @iSCAPEproject and @OPERANDUM_EU , and in all the exciting projects with @smartdublin and @SmartDocklands !

Our Pre Fabricated Panels not only use #lowenergy to be produced, their #thinness make them the perfect solution for #retrofitting where the #reduction of space can be a problem. Reduced thicknes without loosing #structuralstability or #thermalperformance.That was our #challenge.

#Soria is one of the Spanish cities proposed @Greenpeace as #sustainablecity model in the fight against #climatechange.
And it is being abandoned. No economical support to help #sustainabledevelopment, but forget.

It's not about just exchanging materials. It is about using them better. It is about re-using. It's about changing the methods and #buildingconsciously.
It is all about USING IT EFFICIENTLY.

Whole-life carbon: Facades https://t.co/ZKi8DI7dqs

facade systems can account for a significant proportion of a building’s embodied carbon (13-21% range)
