Integrating Hazard Resistant Design with Green Building Design for Life-Cycle Improvements in Building Sustainability

本研究旨在发现一个框架，在绿色建筑设计中纳入抗危险原则。绿色建筑设计试图减少建筑对环境的影响，建筑的建造和运营对美国的能源和水的使用以及产生的废物有很大的贡献。易受自然灾害影响的建筑与绿色建筑理念直接冲突，因为受灾害破坏的建筑会产生额外的废物，需要额外的资源来修复。拟议研究的核心部分是制定一种生命周期评估方法，将建筑环境影响和建筑抗灾能力结合起来。在建筑物的每个阶段，抗危险能力的影响？考虑S寿命，考虑1)根据所考虑的危害在建筑设计和施工方面的差异，2)维护，维修和翻新要求，考虑危险事件期间的损坏风险，以及3)缩短建筑使用寿命的灾害。环境影响是通过抗危害的数学概率评估来量化的，其结果被纳入生命周期分析。如果研究成功，将有助于制定标准，将地震、风和雪荷载的结构建筑设计考虑因素与绿色建筑评级联系起来，这些标准可纳入建筑标准和设计指南。将绿色建筑与抗灾评估相结合的建筑性能科学和指标的进步是朝着更可持续的建筑环境迈出的变革性的一步。该项目还将开发一门新的多学科本科课程，建筑性能：社会，可持续发展，安全和风格，该课程将使用科罗拉多大学校园内leed白金认证的建筑作为实验室，帮助学生更全面地了解建筑设计。该课程的学生还将参与一项长期研究，旨在了解跨学科课程如何为他们的工程职业生涯做好准备。

This research aims to discover a framework that incorporates hazard resistant principles in green building design. Green building design attempts to reduce the environmental impacts of buildings, the construction and operation of which contributes significantly to total U.S. energy and water usage and waste generated. Buildings that are vulnerable to natural hazards are in direct conflict with green building ideals, because disaster-damaged buildings generate additional waste and require extra resources for repair. The core component of the proposed research is the formulation of a life-cycle assessment methodology that incorporates building environmental impacts and building hazard resistance. The effect of hazard resistance during each phase of a building?s lifespan is considered, accounting for 1) differences in building design and construction depending on the hazards considered, 2) maintenance, repair and renovation requirements, considering the risk of damage during hazardous events, and 3) disasters that shorten the building service life. The environmental impacts are quantified through a mathematical probabilistic assessment of hazard resistance, the results of which are incorporated in life-cycle analyses.If successful, the research will facilitate the development of criteria connecting structural building design considerations for earthquakes, wind and snow loads with green building ratings that could be incorporated in building standards and design guidelines. The advancement of building performance science and metrics that integrate green building with hazard resistance evaluations is a transformative step toward a more sustainable built environment. The project will also lead to the development of a new multidisciplinary undergraduate course, Building Performance: Society, Sustainability, Safety and Style, which will use a LEED-platinum certified building on the University of Colorado campus as a laboratory to help students develop a more holistic understanding of building design. Students in the course will also participate in a long-term study aimed at understanding how interdisciplinary coursework prepares them for engineering careers.
