Practical information on designing sustainable, energyefficient building facadesAs energy and other natural resources are being depleted, it has become clear that technologies and strategies that allow us to maintain our satisfaction with interior environments while consuming less of these resources are major objectives of contemporary facade design. Sustainable Facades focuses on the strategies and approaches for designing sustainable, highperformance building facades, and provides technical guidance for architects and designers.This timely and useful guide presents strategies and technical guidelines for designing environmentally sensitive, energyefficient facades based on scientific principles. It provides climatespecific approaches for minimizing energy consumption, analyzes the thermal behavior of different facade systems and materials, and illustrates with case studies how these approaches have been implemented on architectural projects. It also discusses emerging facade technologies, materials, and systems.Topics covered in this unique and indispensable guide include: Climatebased design approaches for highperformance facades Characteristics of sustainable facades: energy efficiency, thermal behavior, and moisture resistance Designing for thermal comfort, lighting and glare control, and acoustic quality Emerging technologies in facade design, including smart materials, doubleskin facades, and facades as energy generators Case studies on building orientation and facade design, tectonic sun exposure control, external shading elements, and more
