Накратко на български

Фасадите на сградите се изследват, за да станат енергийно ефективни и устойчиви на земетресения и горещи вълни. Това помага за опазване на живота на хората и намаляване на отпадъците от строителни материали.

Seismic SAFety and Energy efficiency: Integrated technologies and multi-criteria performance-based design for building FACadEs

The pressing need for stronger, eco-friendly communities and a resource-efficient economy often shapes socio-political goals. Given the harmful effects of the construction sector on the environment, the building industry is working extensively to boost the sustainability of structures and meet energy efficiency objectives. Building envelopes play a major role on the sustainability of buildings. Although novel lifecycle-based design approaches and innovative technical solutions have emerged, environmentally sustainable facades are not enough for building resilient societies. In earthquake-prone areas, facades can lose functionality even during low-intensity events and suffer substantial damage during moderate-to-high intensity earthquakes. This poses risks to occupants, pedestrians, and the economy, with potential losses surpassing structural damage. Addressing the challenge of creating resilient building facades is therefore crucial for our society, particularly within the context of natural disasters and extreme events such as heatwaves. This urgency is driven by the need to safeguard public safety and counteract potential adverse effects on our economy and environment. Furthermore, resilient facades align seamlessly with sustainability goals by conserving resources and reducing waste through extended functionality. The SAFE-FACE project has focused on two key objectives: (i) devising practical and cost-effective technical solutions for damage-control energy-efficient facades, and (ii) developing innovative tools and frameworks for comprehensive performance assessment to support in the selection of robust facade systems. The project has delved into integrated technical solutions for defining "earthquake-proof" and climate-resilient facade systems. Moreover, a holistic framework and tools have been created to evaluate and compare seismic safety alongside other performance metrics, thereby assisting early-stage decision-making for integrated technical systems.

Цел на проекта

Building facades are currently designed targeting high levels of energy efficiency, due to the urgent need for more resilient and sustainable communities, often driving the socio-political and economic priorities. However, environmentally sustainable facades are insufficient to create resilient societies. In seismic hazard zones, façade performance and serviceability can be severely impacted by earthquakes. Façade damage can occur even at low seismic intensities, leading to potential life-safety threat and substantial socio-economic losses. Safer façade systems are thus urgently needed, and SAFE-FACE addresses this need. Damage-control details and sustainable techniques are integrated to develop earthquake-proof sustainable facades for mid-rise new/built residential/office buildings. Moreover, the common façade design is advanced by integrating the seismic study. Multi-criteria performance-based tools/frameworks, including seismic safety as a decisive criterion, are developed (or enhanced) to support the design of façade systems: a novel practice-oriented tool; an advanced optimization-based tool; an innovative probabilistic-based approach. The project is built on the integration of the strength of the Participating Organizations in façade design and the Fellow’s expertise in seismic design. Involving parallel disciplines (Façade Engineering, Earthquake Engineering) and industrial/academic collaboration, the research is topical and represents both a scientific problem and a socio-political priority; it aims at the resilient and sustainable development of the European Community, and timely responds to the safety and socio-economic needs of our modern society. The action will be beneficial for the Fellow’s career, by expanding the applicant’s skills and opening up exciting collaboration opportunities. Being of interest to building industry/practitioners/decision-makers, the research will initiate a virtuous cycle through research-development-education-dissemination.
