Structural Analysis of Factors Influencing the Costs of Facade System Implementation
External facades of buildings and other structures shape the image of every building, creating the architecture of cities. Traditional concrete forms, as a symbol of durability and stability, have been replaced by lightweight enclosures—for example, in ...

Modelling Natural Ventilation in Double Skin Facade
AbstractThe assessment of the energy performance of buildings with Double Skin Facades (DSF) requires proper dynamic simulation tools, based on models capable of predicting heat and mass transfer in the DSF under variable boundary conditions, at the price of a reasonable computational effort.Many DSF simplified models have been developed and ...

Integrated characteristics of thermogravitational convection in the air layer of ventilated facades [PDF]
Ventilated facades solve at least two topical problems for civil engineering: it allows reducing the humidity (concentration of water vapor) on warmed wall surface and reducing heat losses from facade to the environment. The major factor in solving these

Computer-simulation study on fire behaviour in the ventilated cavity of ventilated façade systems
Fire spread through the façades is widely recognized as one of the fastest pathways of fire spreading in the buildings. Fire may spread through the façade in different ways depending on the type of façade system and on the elements and materials from ...
