Silicone materials have a long history in high performance building projects. Known for durability, they can reduce a building’s carbon footprint by
This case study provides an overview of building hybrid curtain wall system and future opportunities for the use of timber. It will also review the
It is commonly thought that fenestration U-factor is not a key determinant in the performance of facades in hot climates, and generally the focus of
The European building stock is mainly constituted by highly energy demanding buildings. The only way to a more sustainable and decarbonized building
How has the role of the façade evolved in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing fight to combat the climate change crisis? As companies grapple
This paper discusses a simulation study of different window systems, where heat transfer simulations were performed to investigate thermal
Buildings account for over 40% of global emissions (GlobalABC, 2018). Growing populations and higher standards of living are increasing pressure on
Thermal bridging through building façades have been overlooked by designers and building energy codes and standards in the past, which has led to
Case study of the recently opened John A. Paulson Center for New York University in Manhattan reviews design solutions of façade depth and scale to
