تاثیر طراحی پوشش ساختمان پایدار در پایداری ساختمان، با استفاده از مدل عملکرد یکپارچه

Sustainable design is a design approach put in place to promote the environmental quality and the quality of building indoor environment by reducing negative impacts on building and the natural environment. Also, it is a design philosophy that seeks to incorporate sustainable development concept in terms of initiatives and values into sustainable building envelope design. However, the problem remains as to what constitutes sustainable development concept required for sustainable envelope design. Therefore, this paper is aimed at examining the role of sustainable development concept in sustainable envelope design by investigating the impacts of sustainable envelope design on building sustainability using Integrated Performance Model. This was validated by comparing the energy efficiency performance from selected case studies of buildings with sustainable development concept and building envelope without sustainable development concept. It is expected that the incorporation of sustainable development concept in terms of initiatives and values will enhance the energy performance of building envelopment development and bring about building sustainability.
