...Pham Vu Hong Son; Luu Ngoc Quynh Khoi; Nguyen Cao Khoi Nguyen Purpose This study aims to develop and validate a building information modeling (BIM)-enabled life cycle assessment (LCA) framework for quantifying and reducing the environmental impacts of buildings during the design stage...

...Minhajul Islam Aman; Md. Uzzal Hossain; Paul Crovella; Obste Therasme Purpose The building industry, with its emission-intensive material use, is a crucial partner for achieving global carbon emission reduction targets. Various strategies are gradually being adopted to reduce the emissions from...

...Nasrollah Alinejad; Sungmoon Jung; Jinglun Cai; Xiuwen Liu Purpose The wind loading on a building is likely to deviate further from the known wind loading due to the complexity of the real-world land coverage. To address this issue, research is needed in two separate areas. First, wind tunnel...

...Michael Gbolagade Oladokun; Inimbom Walter Isang; Fidelis Emuze Purpose With recent extreme weather change from global warming, the ever-increasing volume of waste, and the unsustainable use of natural resources, there is the need to evolve a new way by which building construction projects...

... areas high-rise buildings afford a solution. The purpose of this paper is to present new research involving architecture and computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) must be done at the screening stage of design plans before new cities are laid out. This is achieved in the present study involving...
