Variation of Thermochromic Glazing Systems Transition Temperature, Hysteresis Gradient and Width Effect on Energy Efficiency

open access: yesBuildings, 2016
Due to increasing pressure to reduce the energy demand in buildings, thermochromic thin film based glazing has become a recognized potential solution due to the intrinsic ability to modulate the solar heat gain of a window as a function of the materials ...

Durability of Stone Cladding in Buildings: A Case Study of Marble Slabs Affected by Bowing

open access: yesBuildings, 2019
Bowing is an uncommon pathology that can affect marble stone cladding of building façades, causing a large permanent deflection and the degradation of the flexural and anchoring strength of the stone slabs, which can lead to the cladding falling ...

Design Oriented Model for the Assessment of T-Shaped Beam-Column Joints in Reinforced Concrete Frames

open access: yesBuildings, 2017
Beam-column joints represent very important elements of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. In fact, beams and columns, at the boundary, generate internal forces acting on concrete core and on reinforcement bars with a very high gradient.
