Future of cities, real estate, construction, architecture, manufacturing and offices. Energy saving in office buildings -- global warming. http://www.globalchange.com Global warming impact from offices and commercial buildings, skyscrapers, tower blocks and corporate real estate. Energy efficiency and energy consumption of commercial buildings and office blocks. Balancing air conditioning systems with better building control systems (integrated temperature monitoring) can save over 30% of energy costs each year. Johnson Controls and other companies provide specialist technical advice on heat loss reduction and air conditioning management systems. Issues of ventilation, fresh air, "tight" buildings, carbon dioxide levels, heat exchangers and air ducting. Electricity use and power generation on buildings. Green roofs, open spaces, shade, natural light. Impact of global warming and CO2 reduction on building design, architecture, building regulations and government standards. Special tax relief and concessions, reductions in stamp duty for energy compliant 5* and 6* commercial properties. Activist campaigns to reduce carbon emissions. Carbon trading and offsets. Energy in construction and demolition as proportion of life-time energy use. Future of corporate real estate and corporate real estate management companies. Outsourcing buildings management.

  • I think u said, pipes get hot and u suck coldness out of the building (air conditioning) and you get cold and suck heat into the building to heat it in the summer.

    Something got mixed up here

  • Concrete works because of the strength of sand, stones, cement, that makes a sort of continuous solid structure. If cement attaches strongly and covalently to polymers which themselves may have long lifespans and resist compression. Indeed the elastic properties of polymers could be an advantages in earthquakes and could improve insulation from cold/heat
