The development of a green-building project following a specific reference standard such as LEED, brings new conditions and restrains for all subjects involved in the process. Such changes affect technicians, owners, bureaucracy and also the management tasks either during design or construction phases. Within this scope, project management plays a key role for the optimization of the design-project development. This research analyzes the design process of a single case-study project from the project management perspective, taking into consideration all the activities that negatively affected the project design development. The project selected for the scope of the research is a new school complex located in Northern Italy currently pursuing the LEED Gold certification with a project cost of 13,2 million Euros. A new methodology was created in order to analyze the project and evaluate the effects of detected project-management issues under three different points of view: costs, time and building sustainability. Such “issues” were identified by researchers on the basis of the LEAN-definition of “waste”. The scope of the research is to develop and test a methodology for the optimization of the project management processes during the development of a LEED building design in Europe through the detection and evaluation of process wastes. The results showed that project management issues related to green-building tasks affect considerably the cost, schedule and sustainability of the project design and vice versa, the accuracy of the project management tasks affect the sustainability features of the final building design.

Project is a set of interrelated activities and requires skills from different professions, and also project is involved the various of stakeholders in each phase of the Project Life Cycle. Implementation of Green Supply Chain in construction projects meant to bring the concept of eco-friendly in every process from the initiation phase, planning phase, the construction phase, and the operation and maintenance phase. It is necessary to identify indicators of green initiation and green design and how to explain the relationship between the role of initiation by the owner and the design process by a design consultant. This study aims to identify the indicators of green initiation and green design concept as part of Green Supply Chain. The method used for this study is a descriptive research that identifies and develop a framework for implementing green initiation and green design in construction industry that consists of concept, dimensions, elements, and indicators. GSCM in construction projects was determined by 9 indicators in the green initiation phase and 40 indicators in the green design phase. The success of green concept in construction project is very determined from these two phases as the beginning of the process, and the most important parties are the owners and design consultants.

The life cycle of a ship has an age limit related to its operation. When the ship economically is not profitable any more, it will be recycled or scrapped. Since the scrapped ship has plenty of hazardous materials, special care should be carried out to manage the wastes in accordance with the national and international available regulations. With regard to this a ship recycle yard that conducts ship breaking and recycle of the ships outfits, machineries, and infrastructure should be well designed in order to comply to all regulations that prevent it from producing harmful and polluting wastes to human and environment. The study was aimed to design an environmentally friendly or green ship recycle yard in Indonesia as a pilot project in anticipation to the booming of old used merchant ships fleet due to the implementation of cabotage principle. The project is located in the Maritime Industrial Cluster in Tanggamus Regency, Lampung Province, Sumatera. The ship recycle yard is designed with a capacity of maximum 30,000 DWT ship to be recycled, and all the activities involve in the yard would comply and refer to the environmental and IMO regulations, to ensure that no harm and hazardous wastes polluting the surrounding land and sea by arranging a proper layout and providing proper facilities and working procedures.

Which possibilities are there for cultivating critical, creative, artistic and ethical thinking in collaboration with a major corporation in a student project? The project explored in this article involved first-year students enrolled in a BA product design course at the Oslo Metropolitan University. The research approach combined methods such as practice-led research with students, photo-elicitation interviews, autoethnographic writing and reflections. The article attends to potentials and failures in critical, creative and artistic practices that aim to challenge problematic modes of production in society today. The project initially set out to explore critical modes of creativity and making practices that are different from commercial design. However, the same project was embraced by Ikea, who both sponsored it and exhibited the final results. This embrace may have the effect of zeroing out, countering or incorporating attempts to be critical towards commercial design.

The selection of the project delivery method (PDM) for any project is critical—it establishes the communication, coordination, and contractual interfaces between the owner, contractor, and designer. With an increase in the number of green design projects, understanding the relationship between the PDM and green design is paramount to project and contract management. While it is reasonable to assume that a relationship between green design and design-build (DB) exists since both theoretically are intended to foster an integrated, holistic, team-based collaborative project; it is also appropriate to understand the relationship between green design and other PDMs. This preliminary research examined possible relationships between design-bid-build (DBB), construction management (CM), and DB PDMs and green design with the goal of beginning to identify potential positive correspondence between them. To develop an initial understanding, two main tasks were completed. First, existing published research was evaluated to reveal aspects of projects and PDMs independent of green design. Second, the research collected primarily qualitative information by conducting structured interviews with approximately twenty-five individuals, including owners, contractors, and designers involved in completed green design projects, mainly in the public sector. Upon completion of the structured interviews, responses from the interviews were reviewed for green design project characteristics. Additionally, the interviews provided insight on the initial understanding of the current state of knowledge and experience in green design and PDMs. After the two main tasks were completed, both were evaluated for commonalities. Preliminary results found that seven green design project characteristics emerged that in some cases related to a specific PDM, but in other cases were independent of a PDM. Future research will quantitatively investigate the relationship between green design projects, PDMs, and success factors.

Green buildings have recently become a key aspect of the construction field and bring along a renovation of the whole industry chain. Such changes introduce new challenges for all subjects involved, and designers are also affected by such issues, especially for the development of projects based on international green building standards. Within this scope, project management plays a key role in the optimization of the design phase. This research analyzes the design process of international projects from the project management perspective through a multiple case study approach, considering the sustainability-related tasks that negatively affect the project design development under two types of contractual approaches: Design-Build and Design-Bid-Build. It aims to identify whether the Design-Build or Design-Bid-Build process is the best solution for developing green building projects. Two case studies in Italy and two case studies in Spain are analyzed, and the effects of the project management issues are evaluated under three different points of view: Time, cost, and level of sustainability of the building. A poorly planned process for the achievement of the various green building features of the project can impact the project schedule and the budget, whereas, a poorly managed project could also negatively impact its green building features. Finally, this research also highlights the positive relationship between process integration and green building design development.

Should green buildings not only work differently, but also look, feel, and be conceived differently? The emergence of LEED accreditation as the leading form of environmental performance monitoring and its associated points and checklist format can mask the necessity for architectural projects to have focused and effective design strategies that integrate sustainability with the design process. Green accountability does not always go hand in hand with architectural quality: a good building is certainly not necessarily a green building, while a green building is not always a good work of architecture. So it becomes important to recognize the unique character and possibilities in each project and then to develop environmentally responsive concepts that support and enhance the form of the architecture. This article discusses the current context for “Green Design Practice” through a series of quite different design assignments where the focus is upon enabling the design to emerge from the recognition of the “environmental and sustainability potential.”

Purpose While the general trends in green building (GB) research are known, there is not yet a detailed review of studies on project delivery attributes (PDAs) influencing GB project outcomes. The purpose of this paper is to review the literature to understand the contributions of existing research in this area and to identify the challenges, gaps, and lessons for the future research relating GB project delivery. Design/methodology/approach For the systematic review, specially developed coding based on Boolean operators is used to search for relevant studies in major databases, i.e. Web of Science and Scopus. The studies from the initial search (443) are subjected to two rounds of scrutiny for shortlisting only relevant publications. Using a qualitative review of the shortlisted studies (20), the research objectives and findings of the studies are synthesized and critically analyzed. The contributions and challenges facing research in this area are identified. Future research directions are proposed. Findings Studies in the area have established association between PDAs and various GB project success criteria. In the literature, some PDAs such as project delivery method have been given greater attention than others. Challenges facing PDA research in GB include: the limited number of GB project cases and the complexity of GB project delivery process involving an overwhelmingly large number of variables, thereby limiting scientific rigor and creating some gaps in knowledge. The interaction among PDAs and their cumulative effect on various project performance outcomes/metrics have not been studied, limiting the validity of the existing studies. Scope exists to apply a combination of non-linear, dynamic, probabilistic, explicit, and implicit modeling as well as inductive and deductive approaches to research in this area. Research limitations/implications Existing research findings have limited application in practice. Non-linear, dynamic, probabilistic, deductive, and inductive research techniques and approaches can substantially advance knowledge and lead to plausible findings that can be applied in practice. Originality/value Considering the critical role of PDAs in the successful delivery of GBs, the review provides clear directions for future research.

Transport infrastructures such as roads are assets for the society as they not only ensure mobility but also strengthen society’s economy. Considerable amount of energy and materials, that include bitumen, aggregates and asphalt, are required to build and maintain roads. Improper utilization of energy and/or use of materials may lead to more waste and higher costs. The impact on the environment cannot be neglected either. Life cycle assessment (LCA) as a method can be used to assess the environmental impacts of a road system over its entire life time. Studying the life cycle perspective of roads can help us improve the technology in order to achieve a system that has a lower impact on the environment. There are number of LCA tools available. However, implementation of such tools is still unseen in real road projects. This clearly indicates that there are gaps which are needed to be filled in order to bring these tools into practice. An open road LCA framework was developed for the asphalt roads in order to help in decision support at the late project planning stage such as that related to the green procurement. The framework takes into account the construction, maintenance and end of life phases and focuses on energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Threshold values for the production of some additives were also determined to show how LCA tools can help material suppliers to improve the road materials production processes and the road authorities to set limits on the use of different materials based on the environmental criteria. Additive consideration and feedstock energy in road LCAs were also identified as gaps that were looked in detail. The attributes that are important to consider in an asphalt road LCA that seeks to serve as a decision support in a procurement situation are described. A brief literature review was carried out that focused on project LCAs, and specifically those considering pavements, as this level is assumed to be appropriate for questions relevant in a procurement situation. Following the different standards; road LCAs developed all over the world have generated a lot of knowledge and the studies have been different from each other such as in terms of goals and system boundaries. Hence, the patterns observed have been very different from study to study. It was also difficult to assess the decision support level for which the various LCA frameworks or tools were developed. It is important to define system boundaries based on where in the system the decision support is needed. For LCA to be useful for decision support in a procurement situation, it is important to have a clear understanding of the attributes that constitute the life cycle phases and how data of high quality for them are obtained. The level of consistency and transparency of road LCAs becomes increasingly important in pre-procurement and procurement situations. The key attributes used in a road LCA should mirror the material properties used in a pavement design and therefore be closely linked to the performance of the road in its life cycle. From the different case studies, it was found that asphalt production and transportation of materials are usually highest in the energy and GHG emissions chain. It is highly favorable to have the quarry site, the asphalt plant and the construction site not far from each other and to use the electricity that has been produced in an efficient way. Based on the laboratory test results, it is shown that the effects of chemical warm mix asphalt additives (WMAA)s must be evaluated on a case by case basis since WMAA interaction with the aggregate surface mineralogy appears to play a significant role and thus affects its long term structural behavior. Using the material properties obtained from the Superpave indirect tensile test (IDT) results, pavement thickness design was done in which Arlanda aggregate based asphalt mixtures resulted in thinner pavements as compared to Skärlunda aggregate based asphalt mixtures for the same design life period. Energy (feedstock and expended) saving and reduction in GHG emissions were also seen with addition of WMAA, for both aggregate type cases, based on the data used. Importantly, the results presented illustrate the importance of a systems based LCA approach for evaluating the sustainability for different design and construction options. In this context, having actual pavement material properties as the key attributes in the LCA enables a pavement focused assessment of environmental costs associated with different design options.QC 20141118

The green building market has seen tremendous growth in the past decade. Organizations such as the US Green Building Council have emerged to become a dominant leader in the building industry. Although the green building rating systems are cross-disciplinary, much of the focus has been directed towards design-related input.
General Contractors play an important role in delivering successful sustainable construction projects. If an integrated project delivery method is chosen, the General Contractor may offer insightful preconstruction assistance by providing ideas on green construction methods and materials. As sustainable building practices become more prominent in the construction industry, General Contractors must remain knowledgeable on current green building standards in order to stay competitive.
Two of the most important aspects of business for a General Contractor involve time and money. Through qualitative literature review and quantitative results from a case study, this research analyzes time and cost in sustainable construction projects from a General Contractor's perspective. The research also examines whether the management of a sustainable construction project is substantially different than a non-sustainable construction project for a General Contractor. Finally, because the green building process involves multiple parties, the collaboration effort from all parties involved in a green building project will be studied.

Tese de Mestrado em Design de ProdutoEsta investigação centra-se no estudo dos equipamentos e mobiliários urbanos, do ponto de vista da sua adequação às necessidades dos utilizadores idosos, numa realidade concreta - a Quinta das Conchas no Lumiar, em Lisboa - com a posterior realização de um projecto. A discriminação dos idosos manifesta-se na desadequação dos equipamentos, mobiliário e espaço público em relação ás reais necessidades e fragilidades deste grupo, e pela existência de zonas estereotipadas, que são, por vezes, origem de estigma, partindo do princípio que todos os idosos têm as mesmas necessidades, desejos e motivações. Pretendemos compreender o conceito de idoso, nas suas diferentes acepções, e de que modo estas sereflectem na interacção do idoso com o meio, assim como defender a relevância dos espaços verdes urbanos e, por consequência, reconhecer a importância do equipamento urbano na vivência dos idosos. Procuramos articular o conceito de Design Universal e Design Inclusivo com o projecto de design. E ainda, reflectir sobre técnicas de recolha, representação e análise do espaço público. Como objectivos específicos, pretendemos realizar um levantamento e uma análise do equipamento urbano numa realidade concreta e, finalmente, definir e aplicar parâmetros de projecto em design de equipamento urbano no caso de estudo e contexto seleccionado. Este estudo partiu da recolha de informação sobre as diferentes áreas que nele intervêm, procedendo-se à selecção e análise da literatura considerada relevante. Desenvolvemos o trabalho de campo no caso de estudo, com base na observação directa dos utilizadores idosos em contexto real, para recolher e analisar os dados, através de relatórios diários e fichas tipológica dos equipamentos e mobiliário. Posteriormente, confrontou-se os dados do Parque das Conchas com a crítica literária. A análise e diagnóstico do contexto assenta em critérios de avaliação do espaço público e elementos urbanos, a fim de definir um conjunto de oportunidades de projecto de design, entre as quais se seleccionou aquela que veio a estar na base da proposta em projecto de design de equipamento. O projecto consiste num sistema de apoio de marcha em atenção às necessidades e restrições dos utilizadores idosos, procurando promover uma marcha mais segura e acessível, no sentido de auxiliar o acto de caminhar e proteger os utilizadores de possíveis situaçãoes de perigo. Pretende, também criar pretextos que façam deter os utilizadores da marcha em determinados locais ao longo dos percursos, para estimular contactos sociais, proporcionar momentos de descanso, de observação da paisagem e do quotidiano. A proposta reflectiu não só as visões dos especialistas mas também a análise do Parque, conferindo-lhe uma complexidade inerente nas várias escalas e sensibilidades.
This research focuses on the study of urban equipment, from the standpoint of their adequacy to the needs of elderly people in real context, "Quinta das Conchas" in Lumiar, Lisboa, with the subsequent completion of a design project. The discrimination of older people is manifest in theinadequacy of equipment, furniture and public space in relation to the real needs and weaknesses of this group. It is also present in the existence of stereotyped areas, wich are sometimes source of stigma, assuming that all the elderly have the same needs, desires and motivations. We intend to comprehend the elderly interaction with their social and cultural environment by taking into account the different meanings of being old, also, is purpose to enlight the importance of green urban spaces and, therefore, recognize the importance of urban equipment in living of the aged people. By doing so, we try to articulate the concept of Universal Design and Inclusive Design with the design project. Moreover, think about data collection tchniques, analysis and representation of public space. As specific objectives, we plan to conduct a survey and analysis of equipment in an urban reality and, finally, define and apply design parameters in design of equipment in the urban context and case study selected. In terms of methodology, this study is the collection of information about the different areas involved in it, and proceeds to the selection and analysis of the relevant literature. We develop the fieldwork on case study based on direct observation of older users in real context, to collect and analyze data through daily reports and typological sheets of equipment and furniture. Later on, was confronted the data from the Parque das Conchas with literary criticism. The analysis and diagnosis framework is base on a criteria of evaluation of public space and urban elements in order to define a set of opportunities for project design, wich we select the one that came to be the basis of the design project proposal. The project consists of a walking support system on the needs and constrains of elderly users, seeking to promote a safe and accessible walking, and protects users from possible danger. It alsointends to create pretexts to stop users from walkins in certain places along the pathways to stimulate social contacts, provide moments of rest, observation of landscape and everyday life. The proposal reflect not only the views of experts, but also the analysis of the park, giving a complexity inherent in various scales and sensitivities.

Abstract Buying, this thing is at any corner in our modern business world. The process and relationship of goods from producers to customers is very different from the past. How to use the design of package to accelerate the buying, that is the point for producers to think.Therefore, there are many skills and ideas for design of package. By the spread thinking of “green issue”, environmentally friendly design is also important for designer to consider. A.The goal of our research is investigating how the ideas of using green package design reality, then making case studies, digging out the concept of”green” in process of package design.Finally, using the concept to make the deigns is purpose. B. The range of the review study contain packaging design, green packaging design, and the design for paper products which common use in the design world, then discussing and summing found: (A) The elements of the package design is to identify, color, symbol, display, memory and functions, and showing through color, shape, graphics and text. (B) The primary spirit of the green packaging design is to create a "closed loop", like "make-to-make" of the practice, and make the implementation by 3R (reduction, reuse, recycling), etc.. By the support of citation, we can understand the relationship of paper packing production with green cycle. Then, using the better design of paper packing can induce closer recycle to make much “green”. The third part of our research focuses on case study. We analysis the case:"2012 Taipei packaging green magic”, Taipei product packaging Assistance Program. The following is our result. For the idea of green packing to the real market, we think that the approach rate is still need to improve.Appearance of goods is very important, it transmit the green idea, attract the consumers, access to win in the business world.The green packing not only focuses on reduce the impact after consume, but also need to reduce the produce in the source, or try to use more green material. According to discuss of information from citation and case study, we design the packing and analysis the result. Here sums up our found. Besides the choice of material, the designers should try their best to give consumer a green think in the invisible message, and increase the focus to protecting environment issues; it will make better impression to the company. It is benefit to both, company and consumer. After reduce the source material and the environment impact, it will cause many limit on the design, such as simplification of the structure, material savings and principles for the use of a single material. The designers need to spark their idea to overcome the difficult and make the simply design, which is in keeping with “green”. On the level of green packing design, cases in case study or our designs after analysis, they cannot reach the 100% approach rate in real business world. The main reason is due to the different requires of properties qualities, sales demands of the product itself and the packaging design. Although the achieving proportional to the degree of product packaging green. But it will still be affected because the product or brand itself demands of.

This study began with questions about of the impact of co-design on my professional identity as a designer and researcher as well as the impact of this dual role on the research and its implications for innovations in design practice and education. My study conceptualized a new approach to participatory research, by combining design, participation and research in a co-design based methodology aimed to assist the members of the Street Transformation Group to collectively develop a visual communication strategy for their facilitation of co-design, providing a space for reflection about group process and project development as well as the impact
The Street Transformation Group was formed in 2011 by three Vancouverites: Maya McDonald, Adam Kebede and Julien Thomas. Inspired by the City of Vancouver’s Neighbourhood’s Greenway initiative (City of Vancouver, 2011), a city policy that looks to turn streets into parks, the group created an educational and planning tool: The Green Streets Game, a board game that allows participants to discuss their ideas for a preferred community design in a collaborative, role-play scenario, leading them through a process of reflection, dialogue, and design, in order to produce a shared vision for the future of their neighbourhood.
My study conceptualized a new approach to participatory research, by combining design, participation and research in a co-design based methodology aimed to assist the members of the Street Transformation Group to collectively develop a visual communication strategy for their facilitation of co-design, providing a space for reflection about group process and project development, as well as the impact of these findings on my professional identity as a designer and researcher and the implications of this dual role design practice, research and education. My conclusions focus on collaboration as a classroom strategy and the importance of personality balance and conflict management, as well as the role of designers as reflective researchers. I introduce a new model for co-design that combines elements from action research and other participatory practices with traditional design stages and conceptualizes design as a complex, multi-layered process in a state of constant transformation. The model emphasizes flexibility, allowing the process to develop and change over time and looks to provide a deeper understanding and appreciation for elements like intuition, improvisation, emotion and tacit knowledge within the design process.Graduate

Schools are not only the space for student learning, but also for living.It plays the role of a cen-ter for living in the community. Schools actually also bear the expectations of many people; each student imagines different appearances of the school campus. Thus, in this study, the method of participatory design is used to plan and design the campus interface, so that the teachers,students and residents can all have opportunities to realize their imaginings and hopes. Furthermore, the campus is used as a point of departure in which the green campus spaceis used in demonstration of how to open a campus to enhance a sense of identification from nearby communities, accentuate local characteristics, create a cohesive community consciousness, and create an environmental education site that closely connects campuses and com-munities. In addition, this study combines both sustainable campus participatory design and engineering with the curriculum, so that students can be free of the limitations of textbooks, and in turn learn about issues relating to sustainable development in life, which would develop into infinite possibilities. The research method adopted participatory activities that allow teachers, students, and parents to participate in the process of creating a sustainable campus, from brainstorming the design issue, making creative models,and participating in later construction.Teachers and students can also have a deeper understanding for their campus environment through a series of participatory design activities. The teachers and students may have a chance to joint participation in environment design and construction, in order to elevate their sense of identification and belonging in the campus environment, and increase local consensus between students and the communities at the same time and create a sense of local for the community.The research subjects are students from five representative elementary schools, junior high schools, and high schools in Taipei City. The main conclusions of this study are as followings: （1）we regard that sustainable campus planning rules should be added: environmental education,neighborhood development and participatory to compelet the sustainable school planning. （2）The participatory design activities should emphasize on the integrity of"design participation" and "construction participation ",It′s also suggested to join the "maintainance of participation " in order to compelete the participatory design activities. （3）By observation and analysis of the participatory design activity are used to compare the behavioral differences of various age groups students when the participant in design activities and the learning process, and to summarize participatory design suitable to different age groups of students: context-guidance participatory design for elementary school students; cooperative learning participatory design for junior high school students; insight-learning participatory design for high school students.

During the process of urban development, production and reuse of vacant space are the common problems that need to be confronted. Under the policy of reusing vacant space that is promoted by the government with great exertion, currently the space activation and reuse design have been expanded and developed all over the country. However, how to execute and apply the reuse of vacant space effectively in order to avoid another vacancy is very important, so the researcher of this thesis adopts the design method of pattern language to test and verify using this design study case, and this case would not be vacant because of improper handling. The researcher of this thesis participated in the project of “Southern Campus of Tsing Hua Shuyuan“ that was planned by Origin Architects & Planners and Professor BouLin Hu, and this project was entrusted by “Tsing Hua Shuyuan” in 2007. The design team proposed the key points of design concept with regard to courtyard house, “Tsing Hua Shuyuan ”, in their plan proposal, they aimed to protect the humanistic history, natural landscape, and local emotions and memories that already existed in this place rather than the artistic value of courtyard house construction. However, whether the preliminary planning and design concept of “Tsing Hua Shuyuan” could be implemented or not still has not come to a final conclusion; the researcher of this thesis would continue to base on this concept as the design study of the thesis expansion, and green design concept would be added to the plan in order to avoid any lost. The three design objectives of “Tsing Hua Shuyuan” space reuse design include: 1. preserve humanistic history and memory of courtyard house and fruit tree villages, and become the campus that provides intellect and education; 2. new and old contrast and respect of almost eighty percent destroyed old building reuse activate the functions and frequency of campus space usage, so as to create collective memories and place for campus forum; 3. use green and eco-design perspective to improve the overall quality, provide a space that the teachers, students, and public can use, provide a fusion space that includes the humanism and crowd; such green design plans include solar energy and ecological pool with rain collection, two-layer-heat-insulation walls, and green lecture house and outdoor garden performance stage would be built in the fruit tree garden. This design method is based on question and potential, counterplot and concept, design pattern element and diverse program and concept to carry out the evaluation, and investigation and analysis of the station’s current situation would be carried out. And then, the actual case would be discussed to understand its characteristics, strong points, and shortcomings; thus, the design requirement, key point, and direction of this case can be obtained. From the perspective of the users, the campus that matches with history, culture, emotion, usage function, and demand would be constructed, so as to activate the usage cycles and frequency of the place. The reuse of old building is used as the design concept, the historical, educational, cultural, ecological, and high quality patterns are used as the design strategy, and pattern language is used as the design operational method to propose feasible suggestions. 24 space patterns have been constructed and would be served as the reference for the construction of “Tsing Hua Shuyuan “ in the future.

The research is focused on the evaluation process of airport project compliance with green building
requirements during preliminary stages of project design. The primary aim of the research was to
develop method and tools to check and evaluate the sustainability design performances since the early
stage of project development.
Airports can be constrained by environmental issues which restrict current operations and limit future
potential growth. It is necessary to consider all the specific factors involved in airport design that can
have an influence upon the environmental consequences of its subsequent operations and therefore
impact upon integrated sustainability strategies. Life cycle and long-term planning of airport
infrastructures demand a systemic approach to meet the need for change through better definition of
the design process and compliance with green building requirements.
The research defined specific method and tools enabling both design project control and sustainability
appraisal. The method is based on systematic process, linked to the development of sustainability
indicators that would inform a site-wide approach to the design of airport infrastructure. GrADE method
and tools will contribute in achieving the goal of sustainable development of airport infrastructure
providing a methodological framework to measure and monitor environmental sustainability
performance and creating new opportunities for the aviation regulatory organisations and airport
operators to define architectural and technological strategies to enhance sustainable airport
infrastructure design.

AbstractGreen roofs are becoming common practice in building new public buildings and are considered the roofs for the future since they address the issue of energy and environment simultaneously, providing social, environmental and economic benefits. Despite these benefits, retrofitting an existing building with a green roof is not widely practiced. Undergoing such a project is no small task since it requires a thorough investigation of existing building's constraints, functional, material, and technological to even begin considering design options. Therefore, this process requires specific, case-sensitive approach, especially with the aim of improving the building’s energy performance. This paper presents a methodological approach and design proposals of a green roof retrofit project, through a case study of Belgrade’s “City Housing” building. This retrofit project presents an interesting research topic since it incorporates three distinct roofs, of all of different types, different ways of accessibility and levels of privacy, varying top-to-bottom from a simple extensive roof through a semi-public semi/intensive roof garden to a ground-level public park with trees and intensive vegetation. Also, since this building provides socially significant services, it is frequently visited by general public which presents a potential for introducing educational and demonstration elements in the retrofit project, not only the functional and technological ones. That way, this project can be a showcase example, promoting greening the roofs of Belgrade’s existing public buildings as a way of improving their energy performance.

AbstractThe Building information modeling (BIM) is one of the most promising developments in the architecture, engineering, and construction fields. It carries out the data management during the whole period from site analysis to later operation, and provides technical support and collaborative work platform for a built asset project. Based on the environmental improvement project of the Green-Water Wetland in the Nanjing reach of the Yangtze River, the BIM technology provides a fast and efficient communication platform for all partners involved in the construction period, and has been successfully and efficiently applied in the site design, model analysis, building design, and landscape design. Green-Water Wetland is located on the shoreline of the Nanjing reach of the Yangtze River. The main task of this project is to return the fishpond to the wetland, restore the forest, and improve the landscape of the whole wetland. The specific applications of BIM technology are as follows: (1) It provides a fast and efficient communication platform for all partners involved in the construction period, and couples with the application of GIS and other digital technologies; (2) The Revit and Civil3D software were carried out to realize 3D design of the real scene, and visually display the advantages and disadvantages of each scheme; (3) The preprocessing efficiency of data was greatly improved which lays the foundation for subsequent digital analog analysis; (4) The Mars software was used to render the design scheme in real time, intuitively express the design intention, and avoid repeated design.

In contemporary times, it is a priority for designers to base themselves on sustainable actions and design strategies aimed at reducing the environmental impact of the product production chain. Therefore, the objective of this study was to present the design and production process of experimental stool using MDF, assembled and stabilized using fittings. From a literature review, the design guidelines were delimited. Subsequently, a mood board was incorporated into the design process, followed by a stage of generating virtual alternatives with the aid of mockups on paper and the planning of furniture planning on the MDF. Prototype production was essential to analyze the formal and aesthetic design of the product, as well as to adjust and validate the fitting-based assembly system. From the results obtained, it was observed that the prototype met the sustainable guidelines defined in the project and has the potential for production in 4.0 manufacturing platforms.

Asia has experienced widespread transformation and growth, accompanied by increased demographic pressure, greater intensification of agricultural production, industrialization, and urbanization. This economic growth has been very resource- and carbon-intensive, while climate change has triggered or exacerbated behaviors and defense mechanisms that have come at the expense of the natural environment. Therefore, we examine and compare three Asian Development Bank (ADB) projects in two member countries of the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation: one in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and two in Mongolia that relate to sustainable green development and use innovative financial mechanisms, and behavior-changing nudges. We provide comparative analyses and aim to demonstrate effective, innovative, and sustainable green finance and green transformation approaches in these two countries to address these pressures. The ADB–PRC loan for the Anhui Huangshan Xin’an River Ecological Protection and Green Development project aims to help Huangshan municipality reduce water pollution in the Xin’an River Basin, which is part of the Yangtze River Economic Belt. The project is piloting innovative green financing mechanisms to reduce rural pollution and complement the ongoing interprovincial eco-compensation scheme while supporting green agroecological businesses through two interventions: the Green Investment Fund and the Green Incentive Mechanism. In Mongolia, ADB and the Government of Mongolia have developed two large-scale transformative projects using integrated design and innovative green financing mechanisms to leverage private sector investment: (i) Aimags and Soums Green Regional Development Investment Program, which aims to promote green urban–rural linkages, green agribusiness development, natural capital, rangeland regeneration, and soil carbon sequestration through the (ii) Ulaanbaatar Green Affordable Housing and Resilient Urban Renewal Project, which aims to transform Ulaanbaatar’s vulnerable and substandard peri-urban areas into low-carbon, resilient eco-districts that provide access to green affordable housing.

Government spending on public works, goods and services in the European Union (EU) accounts for about 14% of the EU’s GDP. Consequently, the EU and its Member States (MS) can make a great impact in accelerating the development and uptake of low-carbon technologies through green public procurement (GPP). This brief is part of a wider project financed by Breakthrough Energy, aiming to understand the divergences in GPP uptake in different EU MS and to identify key barriers to greater adoption and opportunities ahead. Ultimately, the project aims to contribute to greater policy coherence among member states to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as to increase policy support for the design of GPP implementation frameworks and for harmonized GPP target-setting. In 2020, the road transport sector accounted for 23% and 20% of total Estonian and Polish GHG emissions, respectively, while the construction sector represented about 5% and 9% of Estonian and Polish total GHG emissions, respectively. These numbers point to the large mitigation potential that procuring authorities can support by including environmental criteria in procurements. In this brief, we share the results from our desktop research and stakeholder interviews for Estonia and Poland. Results from all cases and additional research will be published in a report later in 2022.

The Original Objectives were modified and two were eliminated to reflect the experimental results: Objective 1 - Identify additional genetic variability in SlGLK2 and IPin wild, traditional and heirloom tomato varieties Objective 2 - Determine carbon balance and horticultural characteristics of isogenic lines expressing functional and non-functional alleles of GLKsand IP Background: The goal of the research was to understand the unique aspects of chloroplasts and photosynthesis in green fruit and the consequences of increasing the chloroplast capacity of green fruit for ripe fruit sugars, yield, flavor and nutrient qualities. By focusing on the regulation of chloroplast formation and development solely in fruit, our integrated knowledge of photosynthetic structures/organs could be broadened and the results of the work could impact the design of manipulations to optimize quality outputs for the agricultural fruit with enhanced sugars, nutrients and flavors. The project was based on the hypothesis that photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic plastid metabolism in green tomato fruit is controlled at a basal level by light for minimal energy requirements but fruit-specific genes regulate further development of robust chloroplasts in this organ. Our BARD project goals were to characterize and quantitate the photosynthesis and chloroplast derived products impacted by expression of a tomato Golden 2- like 2 transcription factor (US activities) in a diverse set of 31 heirloom tomato lines and examine the role of another potential regulator, the product of the Intense Pigment gene (IP activities). Using tomato Golden 2-like 2 and Intense Pigment, which was an undefined locus that leads to enhanced chloroplast development in green fruit, we sought to determine the benefits and costs of extensive chloroplast development in fruit prior to ripening. Major conclusions, solutions, achievements: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter, coding and intronicSlGLK2 sequences of 20 heirloom tomato lines were identified and three SlGLK2 promoter lineages were identified; two lineages also had striped fruit variants. Lines with striped fruit but no shoulders were not identified. Green fruit chlorophyll and ripe fruit soluble sugar levels were measured in 31 heirloom varieties and fruit size correlates with ripe fruit sugars but dark shoulders does not. A combination of fine mapping, recombinant generation, RNAseq expression and SNP calling all indicated that the proposed localization of a single locus IP on chr 10 was incorrect. Rather, the IP line harbored 11 separate introgressions from the S. chmielewskiparent, scattered throughout the genome. These introgressions harbored ~3% of the wild species genome and no recombinant consistently recovered the IP parental phenotype. The 11 introgressions were dissected into small combinations in segregating recombinant populations. Based on these analyses two QTL for Brix content were identified, accounting for the effect of increased Brix in the IP line. Scientific and agricultural implications: SlGLK2 sequence variation in heirloom tomato varieties has been identified and can be used to breed for differences in SlGLK2 expression and possibly in the green striped fruit phenotype. Two QTL for Brix content have been identified in the S. chmielewskiparental line and these can be used for increasing soluble solids contents in breeding programs.

The general objective of this BARD project focused on rationally designed insect neuropeptide (NP) agonists and antagonists, their application for the characterization of the mechanisms of action of the pyrokinin/PBAN (PK-PBAN) family and the development of biostable, bioavailable versions that can provide the basis for development of novel, environmentally-friendly pest insect control agents. The specific objectives of the study, as originally proposed, were to: (i) Test stimulatory potencies of rationally designed backbone cyclic (BBC) peptides on pheromonotropic, melanotropic, myotropic and pupariation activities; (ii) Test the inhibitory potencies of the BBC compounds on the above activities evoked either by synthetic peptides (PBAN, LPK, myotropin and pheromonotropin) or by the natural endogenous mechanism; (iii) Determine the bioavailability of the most potent BBC compounds that will be found in (ii); (iv) Design, synthesize and examine novel PK/PBAN analogs with enhanced bioavailability and receptor binding; (v) Design and synthesize ‘magic bullet’ analogs and examine their ability to selectively kill cells expressing the PK/PBAN receptor. To achieve these goals the agonistic and antagonistic activities/properties of rationally designed linear and BBC neuropeptide (NP) were thoroughly studied and the information obtained was further used for the design and synthesis of improved compounds toward the design of an insecticide prototype. The study revealed important information on the structure activity relationship (SAR) of agonistic/antagonistic peptides, including definitive identification of the orientation of the Pro residue as trans for agonist activity in 4 PK/PBANbioassays (pheromonotropic, pupariation, melanotropic, & hindgut contractile) and a PK-related CAP₂b bioassay (diuretic); indications that led to the identification of a novel scaffold to develop biostbiostable, bioavailable peptidomimetic PK/PBANagonists/antagonists. The work led to the development of an arsenal of PK/PBAN antagonists with a variety of selectivity profiles; whether between different PKbioassays, or within the same bioassay between different natural elicitors. Examples include selective and non-selective BBC and novel amphiphilic PK pheromonotropic and melanotropic antagonists some of which are capable of penetrating the moth cuticle in efficacious quantities. One of the latter analog group demonstrated unprecedented versatility in its ability to antagonize a broad spectrum of pheromonotropic elicitors. A novel, transPro mimetic motif was proposed & used to develop a strong, selective PK agonist of the melanotropic bioassay in moths. The first antagonist (pure) of PK-related CAP₂b diuresis in flies was developed using a cisPro mimetic motif; an indication that while a transPro orientation is associated with receptor agonism, a cisPro orientation is linked with an antagonist interaction. A novel, biostablePK analog, incorporating β-amino acids at key peptidase-susceptible sites, exhibited in vivo pheromonotropic activity that by far exceeded that of PBAN when applied topically. Direct analysis of neural tissue by state-of-the-art MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry was used to identify specific PK/PK-related peptides native to eight arthropod pest species [house (M. domestica), stable (S. calcitrans), horn (H. irritans) & flesh (N. bullata) flies; Southern cattle fever tick (B. microplus), European tick (I. ricinus), yellow fever mosquito (A. aegypti), & Southern Green Stink Bug (N. viridula)]; including the unprecedented identification of mass-identical Leu/Ile residues and the first identification of NPs from a tick or the CNS of Hemiptera. Evidence was obtained for the selection of Neb-PK-2 as the primary pupariation factor of the flesh fly (N. bullata) among native PK/PK-related candidates. The peptidomic techniques were also used to map the location of PK/PK-related NP in the nervous system of the model fly D. melanogaster. Knowledge of specific PK sequences can aid in the future design of species specific (or non-specific) NP agonists/antagonists. In addition, the study led to the first cloning of a PK/PBAN receptor from insect larvae (S. littoralis), providing the basis for SAR analysis for the future design of 2ⁿᵈgeneration selective and/or nonselective agonists/antagonists. Development of a microplate ligand binding assay using the PK/PBAN pheromone gland receptor was also carried out. The assay will enable screening, including high throughput, of various libraries (chemical, molecular & natural product) for the discovery of receptor specific agonists/antagonists. In summary, the body of work achieves several key milestones and brings us significantly closer to the development of novel, environmentally friendly pest insect management agents based on insect PK/PBANNPs capable of disrupting critical NP-regulated functions.

Government spending on public works, goods and services in the European Union (EU) accounts for about 14% of the EU’s GDP. Consequently, the EU and its Member States can make a great impact in accelerating the development and uptake of low-carbon technologies through green public procurement (GPP). This brief is part of a wider project financed by Breakthrough Energy, aiming to understand the divergences in GPP uptake in different EU Member States and to identify key barriers to greater adoption and opportunities ahead. Ultimately, the project’s goal is to contribute to greater policy coherence among member states to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as to increase policy support for the design of GPP implementation frameworks and for harmonized GPP target-setting. We focus on the construction and road transport sector because of their high share of GHG emissions (respectively about 25% and 21% of EU’s total carbon dioxide [CO2] emissions), and hence the large mitigation potential that procuring authorities can support by including sustainability criteria in procurements. In this brief, we share results from our research and stakeholder interviews for Sweden and the Netherlands. Results from all cases and additional research will be published in a report later in 2022.

This report is the final deliverable developed by Technopolis Group and Global Factor in the context of the “Evaluation study of 12 projects financed by the ProAdapt Facility”. ProAdapt Facility was launched in 2013 by the IDBs Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF), now IDB Lab, and the Nordic Development Fund (NDF). The main objectives of the Facility were to support climate resilience in MSMEs and the local communities where they operate and to foster business and investment opportunities for private-sector resilience solutions. In addition, the program supported the creation of new capacities and tools and the development of business models to achieve climate resilience. The IDB Lab approved 12 technical cooperation projects in 13 member countries for a total contribution of US$11.52 million (including MIF and NDF funding). In addition, US$16.56 million was leveraged as counterpart funding from executing agencies and project partners. Overall, the funding for ProAdapt Facility amounted to a total of US$28.08 million. The project portfolio was approved gradually between 2013 and 2019, and its implementation ended in March 2022. The distribution of the operation portfolio by focus areas is as follows: five projects were related to access to basic services and green growth; three to inclusive cities; two to accessing markets and capabilities; and one to smart agriculture. This report provides information on the benefits and the achievement of results for and across the different projects. It also reports on the effectiveness of the ProAdapt Facility in promoting the dissemination of the results achieved. The results of the evaluation are mainly based on in-depth studies of 10 of the planned projects. For the remaining two projects, in-depth studies were not conducted as one was cancelled before it started, and the other concerned the generation of knowledge products. In addition, the evaluation included a study that benchmarks ProAdapts intervention against those of external climate funds and highlights relevant lessons learned that might be useful for the design of future climate funds at the IDB.
