Dissertations / Theses on the topic 'Vertical gardens'

Nuestro proyecto busca desarrollar una idea de negocio a partir de un problema. Para ello consta de dos grandes etapas: la primera etapa de búsqueda y validación del problema, y la segunda etapa referente al desarrollo de la idea de negocio. Sabemos que la tendencia a vivir en lugares más pequeños es notoria en la población, especialmente en Lima, por ello el problema central que se identificó fue la falta de espacio para la decoración natural en viviendas. En la primera etapa, se realizaron entrevistas al público objetivo y a expertos que nos permitieron validar la viabilidad de la idea de negocio: jardines verticales a base de musgo vivo. La idea surgió como alternativa sencilla para combatir contaminación ambiental, adatándola al mercado peruano, con un mayor énfasis en la asesoría estética y el diseño, educando siempre en la importancia de la protección del medio ambiente. En la segunda etapa, se determinaron los planes a seguir para la evolución de una empresa a partir de esta pequeña idea. Dentro de este análisis se rescatan, la importancia de las operaciones de instalación y desarrollo tecnológico. Nuestro diferencial recae en el musgo, gracias a su sencillo mantenimiento y su bajo costo de implementación y adaptación. Las proyecciones indican que, bajo una tasa de descuento del 14.64%, lograremos un VAN de S/. 74,134 con una tasa interna de retorno de 53.13%. Con estos números, nuestro proyecto representa una gran oportunidad de inversión con una base de investigación biotecnológica que otorga un gran diferencial.
Our project seeks to develop a business idea from a problem. It consists of two major stages: the first stage of search and validation of the problem, and the second stage concerning the development of the business idea. We know that the tendency to live in smaller places is notorious in the population, especially in Lima, so the central problem that was identified was the lack of space for natural decoration in homes. In the first stage, interviews were conducted with the target market and experts, which allowed us to validate the viability of the business idea: vertical gardens based on live moss. The idea emerged as a simple alternative to counter environmental pollution, adapting it to the Peruvian market, with a greater emphasis on aesthetic advice and design, always educating on the importance of environmental protection. In the second stage, the plans to be followed for the evolution of a company were determined from this small idea. Within this analysis, the importance of installation and technological development operations are rescued. Our differential lies in the moss, thanks to its simple maintenance and its low cost of implementation and adaptation. Projections indicate that, under a discount rate of 14.64%, we will achieve a NPV of S/. 74,134 with an internal rate of return of 53.13%. With these numbers, our project represents a great investment opportunity with a biotechnological research base that grants a large differential.

This practicum is a reference for vertical gardeners in cold climates. Winnipeg, Manitoba is explored, however findings may be applied to other cities in similar climates. First, the history of vertical gardening is discussed, then the types of vertical gardens currently on the market are described. These can be classified into two categories: soil bearing or non-soil bearing. Most designs are modular pre-planted systems that can be attached to any wall, as long as it satisfies the structural requirements recommended by the manufacturer. The benefits of vertical gardening have been shown to be rather extensive, covering a wide range of areas. Aesthetic improvement, reduction of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, improvement of air quality, stormwater absorption, noise reduction, native habitat integration, reduction of heating and cooling costs for buildings, food production, marketing, and biophilia are all benefits explored in detail. Difficulties associated with vertical gardening are discussed, specifically the lack of knowledge and awareness of vertical gardens, lack of empirical evidence (or missing details in existing research), overall cost and lack of financial incentives, lack of industry codes, and various associated risks. Design framework exists within microclimate conditions unique to vertical gardens, as well as neighbourhood and regional (micro)climates. Theories relating to the study of green walls covered include the human ecosystem model, urban reconciliation ecology, habitat templating, the urban cliff hypothesis, and wall ecology. Suitable habitat templates identified for vertical gardens in Winnipeg are cliffs, sand dunes, alvars, mixed grass prairie and prairie potholes. Design parameters to be followed for vertical garden design in Winnipeg are to ensure that lightweight materials are used, to provide insulation to protect plants from sudden temperature changes, to choose plants that grow in the region and are adapted to grow in areas with limited soil, increased wind, varying degrees of sunlight (depending on orientation), and increased pollution and salt spray depending on location.

The thesis BIKEZONE.cz - bike shop with residential units is processed in the form of project dokumenmtace containing all the elements in accordance with applicable regulations. The proposed facility is on a plot number 182/1, Prague. The building has four floors. There are vending establishment with administrative facilities and three deluxe units. The structural system is made of limestone blocks, prestressed concrete ceiling panels, flat green roof with extensive cultivation and vertical gardens on the facade.

This project began as a critique of the current notions of â greenâ architecture. It grew into the creation of a system for integrating nature with structure, the organic with the constructed. A grand entry for the Highline Park on the lower Westside of Manhattan is used as a means for generating a domain which plants, specifically hanging ivy, could thrive. Simple elements such as columns, cables, stairs and ramps, can become a means for creating immersive living volumes, fostering instances where nature can conquer construction.

I consider that either walking along the riverbank or floating down the river by boat and enjoying the journey by interacting with nature is a fundamental human right. Wandering in the concrete jungle, humming while beatboxing, dancing, and skateboarding can also be great pleasures. However, as cities increasingly cover over nature with urban constructions, highways, for instance, they deprive people's right to access the river by erecting a barrier between city and nature. Citizens are the reason that cities exist. So many vivid social activities happen in the concrete jungle every day. Yet, out urban lifestyles belittle nature as it is obscured by the city. It would be much more beautiful, inspiring, and healthy if we can find ways to develop cities in harmony with nature, allowing citizens to bring our urban textures to the ever-flowing river. In my thesis, I explore the possibilities of bringing the city and the river, architecturally.

For any artist, imagination is a powerful and necessary instrument for everyday creation. It is like a magical engine that drives the artist forward. But what is imagination? How do we keep this engine running nonstop? According to the Italian philosopher Giovan Battista Vico, imagination is nothing but extended or compounded memory, imagination is nothing but the springing up of reminiscences, and ingenuity or invention is nothing but the working over of what is remembered.So we can easily understand that people create or invent things out of what they have seen, what they have experienced, and what they have engaged with their own bodies. In my thesis, I'm not competing with the artists in imagination or creation, but I'm trying to offer them this architectural environment that would be transfigured into memory through senses. The artists living and working in this tower building are encouraged to move vertically through stairways and vertically aligned public spaces. By engaging the body and senses in this vertical movement, the artists would find their way out of the urban canyon to the sky of imagination. They would also be able to live lightly above the bustling world of reality.

The state of the world is changing. By 2050, The earth’s population will increase by 3 billion and building sector is asked to construct 3 billion new housing units inside urban centres. Since one of the fundamental needs is food, agriculture sector also needs to adjust itself to this growing number of people. Nevertheless, in 2019, Agriculture used 50 per cent of all earth’s habitable land and experts estimate that we need 109 hectares more land to cultivate however this amount of habitable land is approximately the land which is represented by the country of Brazil and 20 per cent more. Moreover, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations states that water use grew twice as much as population increase and agriculture already is using approximately 70 per cent of the global freshwater. At this point, experts like Professor Dickinson Despommier suggests that the only way humanity can tackle its future food safety issues is to find ways to introduce vertical farming inside Urban centres. The High Garden project is resulted by the world state today and is trying to find an architectural solution to the mentioned issues. It starts firstly by studying the issues more thoroughly and then tries to form a framework which includes and transcends them. It studies how the construction sector is acting now and how it can reorient itself to the situation whilst limiting its negative environmental impact. Then the thesis tries to understand the basics of vertical farming methods compared to the conventional geoponics farming as it is practised today and how it can integrate the better cultivation solution inside city centres. The last step of the theoretical studies of the project is to look at the history of integrated farming and EcoArchitecture. After understanding the theories of the issue, then the thesis starts to form itself as an architectural intervention using the architectural tools and methods and combining the studied disciplines. The result of the thesis is a modular configuration which can accommodate various activities such as aeroponic farming, local markets, zen areas, and drone subscription deliveries etc. Because of the modular construction of the project, it can adapt and adjust itself to different situations and it uses an algorithmic tool to analyse and study existing cities to find proper intervention points. Then it is attached to the existing buildings as a sustainable green extension solving some issues and revitalizing the dead city edges.

Resumo: O jardim vertical é todo sistema que permite o crescimento e o desenvolvimento da vegetação em superfícies verticalizadas. A parede viva é o tipo de jardim vertical que demanda maior tecnologia de produção e instalação e o seu modelo “parede viva contínua” é constituída por camadas (perfis metálicos, placas estruturantes, feltro, substrato e vegetação) que junto com uma cavidade de ar existente entre o jardim e a edificação funciona como uma proteção contra radiação solar incidente. A influência térmica da parede viva ocorre pela ação de quatro mecanismos que atuam em conjunto: sombreamento, isolamento térmico, barreira de vento e resfriamento evapotranspirativo. O mecanismo de sombreamento ocorre pela ação do sistema de jardim vertical que sombreia a superfície da parede e impede a incidência solar direta, sendo um dos mais importantes na influência térmica do jardim. Além disso, por meio do mecanismo evapotranspirativo, o jardim também influencia o microclima do seu entorno imediato. Assim, o presente projeto objetivou identificar o impacto de um jardim vertical de tipologia “parede viva contínua” na redução das temperaturas superficiais de uma parede e nos microclimas do seu entorno imediato (temperatura do ar, umidade absoluta e temperatura radiante média), em diferentes condições de tempo. Para isso, foi construída um jardim experimental, com delimitação de uma parcela controle. Os resultados mostraram influência significativa do jardim sobre as temperaturas superficiais...

Abstract: The vertical garden is any system that allows the growth and development of vegetation on vertical surfaces. The living wall is the typology of vertical garden that demands the most production and installation technology and its “continuous living wall” model consists of layers (metal profiles, structural plates, felt, substrate and vegetation) that together with an air cavity between the garden and the building acts as a protection against solar radiation. The thermal influence of the living wall occurs through the action of four mechanisms that act together: shading, thermal insulation, wind barrier and evapotranspiration cooling. The shading mechanism occurs by the action of the vertical garden system that shades the wall surface and prevents direct sunlight, being one of the most important in the thermal influence of the vertical garden. In addition, through the evapotranspiration mechanism, the vertical garden also influences the microclimate of its immediate surroundings. Thus, the present project aimed to identify the impact of a vertical garden of “continuous living wall” typology in the reduction of the surface temperatures of a wall and in the microclimates of its immediate surroundings (air temperature, absolute humidity and average radiant temperature), in different weather conditions. For this, an experimental garden was built, with delimitation of a control plot. The results showed a significant influence of the vertical garden on the surface temperatures and th...

Resumo: As fachadas verdes são variedades de jardins verticais em que a vegetação do tipo trepadeira cresce e se desenvolve em superfícies verticais e podem ser classificadas em diretas e indiretas. A primeira cresce diretamente na parede da edificação, enquanto a segunda necessita de estruturas de suporte fixadas ou afastadas da mesma. Devido ao poder de sombreamento e às funções biológicas das trepadeiras, as fachadas verdes funcionam como dispositivos de amenização térmica, uma vez que sua cobertura vegetal bloqueia a passagem de grande parte da radiação solar para dentro da edificação. Neste contexto, esta pesquisa, de caráter experimental, teve como objetivo determinar e quantificar a atenuação de radiação solar de fachadas verdes indiretas com três diferentes espécies de trepadeiras (Ipomoea horsfalliae, Passiflora Edulis e Thunbergia grandiflora) em um espaço de transição situado no Campus da Universidade Estadual Paulista, em Bauru-SP. A pesquisa objetivou, ainda, verificar a influência das fachadas verdes nos microclimas (temperatura do ar, de globo e umidade absoluta do ar) de um espaço de transição com e sem a influência das mesmas. Além disso, foram analisados os aspectos morfológicos das espécies selecionadas que estão diretamente ligados com seu Potencial de Sombreamento (PSO) e, consequentemente, a atenuação da radiação solar promovida pela vegetação. Os resultados demonstram que, quanto maior o PSO das espécies, maior seu poder de atenuação da radiação solar. Assim, f... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)
Abstract: The green facades are varieties of vertical gardens in which the climber grows and develops on vertical surfaces and can be classified as direct and indirect. The first one grows directly on the wall of the building, while the second needs support structures attached to or away from it. Due of their shading power and the biological functions of climbers, green facades act as thermal mitigation devices, since their vegetation cover blocks the passage of much of the solar radiation into the building. In this context, this experimental research aimed to determinate and quantify the solar radiation attenuation of indirect green facades with three different species of climbers (Ipomoea horsfalliae, Passiflora edulis e Thunbergia grandiflora) in a transitional space located on the Campus of the State University of São Paulo, in Bauru-SP. The research also aimed to verify influence of green facades on local microclimates (air temperature, globe temperature and absolute air humidity) at points with influence of green facades and without influence of them. In addition, the morphological aspects of the selected species that are directly linked with their Shading Potential (PSO) and, consequently, the solar radiation attenuation promoted by the vegetation were analyzed. The results show that the higher the PSO of the species, the greater their solar radiation attenuation power. Thus, maximum attenuations of up to 92, 94 and 90% were obtained for Passiflora edulis (PSO 0,75), Ipomoea hor... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Brno has been considering moving the Main railway station for several decades. Countless urban plans have been done through several competitions, the new South District, which will be located north direction of today's Dolní nádraží station in the future. The architectural study, which was the subject of this diploma thesis, designs multifunctional object called Platform. The building could become part of the emerging South District. The base for the architectural study of the Platform was urban concept of South District designed by me as a pre-diploma thesis. The significance of the South District is comparable to the new Main Railway Station in Vienna surrounded by new district. Those opportunities were the foundation for designing compact urban structure with great variability of public spaces and buildings themselves. The new building is located on the Route of experiences, which is an alternative lane to the main boulevard from the Main Station to the centre of Brno. That starts at the railway station, leads through South District and its main square, the waterfront, through the islands of Svratka, to the park next to the river. Lane continues to the rediscovered railway viaduct and further to today's Main railway station. The viaduct was an inspiration for the architectural design, in the sense of material and shape. The mass of the building itself is divided horizontally into two parts. The lower, heavy masonry brick part of the market is visually separated from the upper objects that seem to levitate above the market. These three upper masses grow from the green roof of the market. Their function is already evident due to their facades. Upper part belongs to the two apartment buildings with a regular grid of south-west orientated windows and one coworking facility located in the northern corner of the Platform. The location of the building is significant. The views from the Platform are amazing - one side there is the Svratka River with island

The diploma thesis deals with a project documentation of the building kindergartens in Brno, on the estate Lesná. The design and architectural design of the building is based on a combination of mutually intersecting blocks, while in the spatial division of the building is put great emphasis on simple rectangular shapes. Building facade is completed unusual modifications that are in perfect harmony, and also contrast with the overall shape design construction. Business can complete single-storey building comprising two independent departments divided into four functional zones: preschool education, social, administrative and economic. Specializations in appropriate field are a part of the project.

Syfte: En långsam utveckling av levande väggar i Sverige beror bland annat på bristande erfarenhet och kunskap inom byggbranschen. Tidigare studier visar bland annat utmaningar gällande teknikens anpassning till ett svenskt klimat och ett krävande underhåll beroende av kompetens, planering och samverkan. Målet med studien är att analysera ett hållbart underhåll utifrån teknik och underhållsplanering av systemet levande väggar för att kunna besvara dessa problem. Metod: Studien är av kvalitativ karaktär där använda metoder är dokumentanalys, intervju och observation. Dokumentanalys ger en lägesbild av implementerade lösningar i södra Sverige och strategier för underhållsplanering. Intervju med relevanta aktörer bidrar med erfarenheter om teknik, underhåll och planering. Observation bekräftar information om teknik. Resultat: Studien visar på att ingen av de studerade konstruktionslösningarna kan anses fullständigt hållbara, men det finns systemlösningar som har mer eller mindre hållbara egenskaper. Levande väggar har starka sociala och ekologiska fördelar, där växtligheten bidrar till att öka ekosystemtjänsterna i urban miljö. En mindre resursanvändning är nödvändig för en hållbar teknik, där naturlig bevattning, lokala tåliga växter, varaktig konstruktion samt återvunna materialkomponenter främjar hållbar miljö och ekonomi. Filtdukssystem är enklare i design medan modulsystem är mer flexibelt. Ett gemensamt mål bland studerade projekt är att skapa ett så underhållsfritt system som möjligt där väggen får leva på naturlig väg. Acceptans för vilande växter under vinterhalvåret kan sänka krav på underhållet. Teknisk övervakning underlättar men manuell tillsyn är vital för väggens överlevnad. Frekvensen på underhållet varierar från projekt till projekt där kundens önskemål, placering, typ av vägg, storlek, växtval och årstid påverkar. Därför är det viktigt med planering och kontinuerlig utvärdering av behov. Majoriteten av studerade projekt har ingen tydlig underhållplanering, men studien visar på framgångar av ett tydligt gemensamt mål, tidig involvering av driftpersonal, platsanalys, målinriktad underhållsplan och erfarenhetsåterkoppling. Konsekvenser: Studiens slutsats är att tekniken för levande väggar behöver utvecklas för att för att lämna ett mindre fotavtryck på miljö och ekonomi. Utvecklingen går mot ett så underhållsfritt system som möjligt, men den manuella tillsynen kan inte ersättas helt av avancerad teknik. Varje anläggnings unika förutsättningar kräver noggrann planering och kontinuerlig utvärdering av behov. Begränsningar: Studien behandlar levande väggar i ett svenskt urbant klimat, där resultatet baseras på erfarenheter från projekt utförda i södra Sverige. Annan geografisk placering skapar andra förutsättningar för teknik och underhåll. Mer generella antaganden kan göras gällande underhållsplanering. Fler intervjuer med underhållstekniker kan bidra med andra aspekter i analysen.
Purpose: A slow development of living walls in Sweden is partly due to lack of experience and knowledge in the construction industry. Former studies point at challenges of adapting the technique in a Swedish climate and the importance of planning, knowledge and cooperation for the maintenance. The objective of the study is to analyse a sustainable maintenance by technique and maintenance planning of the system living walls in order to answer these challenges.   Method: The study is based on a qualitative approach where the methods are document analysis, interview and observation. Document analysis gives a status report of the implemented living walls in Sweden and introduces strategies for maintenance planning. Interview with relevant participants contributes with experiences concerning technique, maintenance and maintenance planning. Observation confirms the information about the technique. Findings: The study shows that none of the observed solutions can be considered completely sustainable, though they do have some sustainable qualities. Living walls have strong social and ecological benefits, where the vegetation contributes to increase ecosystem services in urban environment. A less use of resources is necessary for a sustainable technique where the use of stormwater, local resistant plants, lasting construction and recycled components promotes a sustainable environment and economy. The felt system is simpler in its design while the modular system is more flexible. A common objective among the observed projects is to create a maintenance-free solution as possible. Acceptance for resting plants during winter can lower the demands of the maintenance. Technical monitoring facilitates the maintenance but the manual handling of living walls is crucial. The frequency of the maintenance varies from each project where the client’s choice, placement of the wall, type of solution, size, plant choice and season affect. Therefore, it is important with planning and constantly evaluating a walls needs. The majority of the observed projects do not have a maintenance plan but the study shows success by a common objective, site analysis, goal-oriented maintenance plan and experience feedback. Implications: The conclusion of the study is that the technique of living walls needs to be evolved to leave a smaller footprint on the environment and the economy. The development is towards a maintenance-free solution but the manual handling can not be replaced by advanced technique. Every projects individual conditions demands thorough planning and continuous evaluation of the wall. Limitations: The study discuss living walls in the Swedish urban climate, where the result is based on experiences from projects developed in the southern part of Sweden. Other geographical placement causes different conditions for technique and maintenance. General assumptions can be made concerning the maintenance planning. More interviews with maintenance staff can contribute with other aspects to the analysis.

The architectural design of the reconstruction of Centrum department store is trying to establish a link to Tomáš Baťa by the phenomenon of high-rise buildings, and architectural design. The renovated part is trying to re-establish the original appearance and dispositions. New high-rise portion of the building are leveraging current architectural trends continue the functionalist Karfíks ideas. The aim was to carefully distinguish between the new and the original part of the building for the present pleasant correspondence with the surrounding historicist facades. This was mostly achieved through inclined and curved shapes with which functionalism rarely worked. Operation in new part is provided by a vertical communication tube, whose facade is composed of a vertical garden, which should contribute to the improvement of living conditions in densely built-up city center. The building is located in the center of city there are high demands for its multipurpose use. Shops, services and catering operations are situated in the lower part of the building. In successive floors is office space, and then on the top floor there are duplex apartments. Automatic stacker parking for residents is placed under the communication tube.

The subject of the diploma thesis is to design reclamation of brownfield PERLA 01 in Ústí nad Orlicí. The construction program consists conversion of existing building to assembly hall, gallery, tourist centre, sheltered workshop, rentable space, office building. New building is Start up centre. The project design a character of public space and a new square.

Single-storey C-shaped building of kindergarten in Nový Jičín with flat green roof.The building is situated on the flat land. The plot is accessible by local road. Kindergarted has irregular plan. The ends are connected by connecting tunnel, which is partly below ground level. Courtyard facade is a vertical garden - green facade.

The subject matter of the Master's Thesis deals with the design of the Brno University of Technology (BUT) compound on Kraví hora and comes as a follow-up to the work done in the previous academic term. The aim was to combine the interests of the city of Brno and that of the Brno University of Technology (BUT); to create a common zone which would incorporate attractive park areas for the general public and a representational space for the promotion of BUT and other activities that the university has been lacking to date. The primary objective was to make the compound more accessible to the public as there are currently community gardens which stand as a barrier. The entire BUT compound is thus integrated with the neighbourhood, providing numerous public areas that are ideal for relaxation and leisure activities where people may enjoy their free time. The new buildings will offer visitors an introduction to the history and current state of the University of Technology, mainly via exhibitions and entertainment. The faculty buildings, designed as a recruitment centre and used to present student work, will perform additional functions. The current facilities will be utilized as areas for graduates in creative disciplines who will be able to rent their first art studios there. The new buildings are set in the terrain so as not to disrupt the natural aspect of the park, seamlessly blending into the surrounding landscape. Another interesting feature is an observation tower, designed to further utilize the location's potential and provide visitors with a wide view of the area, far into its surroundings.

With the rapid urban development and population growth, the concentration of carbon dioxide and temperature rising dramatically, the traffic noise and road development, air pollution, and lack of green space, all these reasons made the living environment getting worse and also destroy the ecology to threaten the surviving of all the plants and animals. Therefore, in order to improve the urban greening, vertical garden becomes the best green space in the city. Recently, the fences of construction site in Taiwan also start to be applied with simple vertical garden to beautify the city. 　 　　This study focuses on the examination of plant adaptation on the simple vertical garden. From Taiwan native species, common Horticulture Plants, and Crassulaceae species, choosing 12 kinds of plants to study the adaptation, survival situation, and the rate of green cover in West and South orientation. These 12 kinds of plants were recorded for 30 weeks as their growing situation, surviving rate, and the rate of green cover. Finally we chose the most appropriate species and condition of plant. 　 　　This research indicated that, for the adaptive plants on the simple vertical garden, they are not only drought-tolerant, but also need to be tolerant of high temperature and humid in the summer. The best adaptive plants are Vaccinium Fig,Seashore Ardisia, and Heartleaf Iceplant. These three plants belong to different kind of species, but all of them are drought-tolerant and heat-tolerant plants.

The rise in extreme weather events globally in recent years has not only led to drastic rises in summer temperatures in Taiwan, but also higher temperatures in spring and fall. Due to urbanization and dense populations, Taiwan has witnessed a stronger urban heat island effect than neighboring countries. A substantial body of research has shown that the vertical greening system used in modern architectures may be highly beneficial to heat insulation and reduction of indoor temperatures. Other recommendations include increasing urban green areas, reducing urban heat island effect, improving bio-diversity in cities, cleansing air quality and furnishing the façade of a city. Among vertical greening approaches, fabric gardening is a medium with many notable advantages, such as high durability, variety in design, and low maintenance. It is also environmentally friendly as it involves recycled materials. This paper focuses on the potential of fabric gardening to improve heat insulation in vertical greening systems. This study first conducts a simulated experiment to compare the cooling effects of fabric gardening versus other vertical greening systems. Then we conducted an on-site investigation in Chiayi Industry Innovation Center by twice measuring the building’s temperatures, each lasting for a week. Results indicate that the temperature of the indoor wall was on average 0.9℃lower than the atmospheric temperature at the fabric garden. The temperature difference between the atmospheric temperature and indoor wall was 10.5℃and 2.8℃, respectively. Heat transmission was reduced by 73%. This indicates that fabric gardening holds much potential for application in systems aimed at heat insulation and air temperature regulation.

Vertical integration is a process that enables a firm to expand its business into include other production stages, that is, it is able to process the products that it has manufactured or produce its own input materials. As a value-added process, vertical integration creates a synergy effect by integrating two or more value creation stages. 　　Located in Ruili Village of Meishan Township in Chiayi County, U- Jia- Li Farm was founded by Mr. Liu Xian-Tan in 1982 when he started a tea plantation on a piece of rented farmland. At its prime, operations on the tea farm covered an area of 24 hectares. Severely devastated by Typhoon Morakot, the tea farm has painstakingly struggled to recover its operations. After years of continued efforts, the farm has reestablished a 13-hectare tea plantation with a tea factory and has its own marketing channel. For the past several years, the tea farm has strived to promote tea-themed tourism by combining tea production with tea culture. Merging the plantation, production lines, and sales operations into a three-level conglomeration, the tea farm has transformed itself into a model example of vertical integration.tegration. 　　On the basis of research results discovered through a literature review, this study employed a case study method to conduct in-depth interviews. The study results showed that the success of the U-Jia-Li Farm’s integrated business strategy could be attributed to the following factors: (1) Achieving improved cost advantage through vertical integration, in which investments in proprietary assets are strengthened while tea quality is effectively maintained; (2) securing key capability and supply quality to minimize uncertainty, thereby reducing transaction costs; (3) ensuring stable and timely delivery by improving production scheduling; (4) building its own brand to gain an additional competitive advantage; and (5) combining the tea industry with tea culture, tourism, and the leisure industry to create differentiated value.

O Homem tem privilegiado a vida no meio urbano, em detrimento do rural, por mais oportunidade de emprego e melhores condições de vida. As cidades cresceram de forma acelerada, sobretudo depois da Revolução Industrial do século XVIII, crescimento sem controlo, repercutindo-se num desajustado planeamento urbano, ambiental, humano, social e económico. De uma forma, as paisagens verdes e naturais, foram substituídas por densas manchas cinzentas de construção, criando afastamento crescente do Homem com a Natureza. Os Jardins Verticais poderão ter um papel fundamental revestindo de forma verde e natural as fachadas dos edifícios, numa tentativa de colmatar o afastamento entre ambos. Para além destes aspectos, os Jardins Verticais proporcionam inúmeras vantagens para o edifício, de que se destacam a eficiência energética e acústica, a protecção da estrutura do edificado ou a melhoria da qualidade do ar interior. Estes também importantes para a envolvente, como na redução do efeito ilha de calor, no aumento da biodiversidade, na melhoria da qualidade do ar exterior, mas sobretudo porque proporcionam ao Homem uma sensação de saúde e conforto, exclusivo da Natureza. Tendo em conta o estado de degradação do edificado nas grandes cidades, e tomando como exemplo particular a cidade do Porto, o recurso aos Jardins Verticais poderá ser uma solução viável para a reabilitação urbana, mudando a imagem de degradação, propondo uma imagem mais “verde” e contribuindo para o nível de sustentabilidade. Partindo deste pressuposto, propõe-se como aplicação do conhecimento adquirido no estudo desenvolvido e aqui apresentado, o recurso a Jardins Verticais como estratégia de reabilitação de edifícios da cidade do Porto. Inspirado na técnica e mestria de Patrick Blanc, resultou um “pormenor-tipo”, como base para a aplicação de Jardins Verticais no edificado social da cidade, experimentado em 10 estudos práticos, tirando-se partido das vantagens supra-mencionadas.
Man has privileged life in urban rather than rural because that ensures employment opportunities and better living conditions. Cities grew rapidly, especially after the Industrial Revolution of the century XVIII, without any control, leading to an inadequate urban plan, environmental, human, social and economic. Someway, the natural green landscapes were replaced by dense gray stains of buildings, creating a growing distance between Man and Nature.The Vertical Gardens can play a key role, coating of natural green the facades of our buildings, in an attempt to finish the separation between both. Besides, Vertical Gardens provide numerous advantages to the building, like the energy and acoustic efficiency, the protection to the structure of the building or the improvement of indoor air quality. These are also important for urban surroundings, in reducing the heat island effect, increasing biodiversity, improving outdoor air quality, but above all because they provide Man a sensation of the health and comfort, exclusive of Nature. Considering the degradation of buildings in major cities, taking as particular example Porto city, recourse to Vertical Gardens can be a viable solution to urban rehabilitation, changing the image of urban degradation, proposing a more "green" landscape and contributing to the sustainability level. Thus, it is proposed as an application of the knowledge acquired on the study developed and presented here, the use of Vertical Gardens as a strategy for rehabilitation of buildings in Porto city. Inspired in Patrick Blanc mastery and technique, it results a “pormenor-standard”, as a base to application of Vertical Gardens in buildings of social habitation, that “pormenor-standard” has been experimented in 10 practical studies, taking advantage of the above mentioned.
