Traceability is considered a crucial requirement to enable Circular Economy (CE). Product and process life-cycle data can facilitate circular asset management preserving the asset's value over time and reducing resource consumption. Many scholars point out how the loss of traceability data, lacking information reliability, and unstructured data are...
Nel settore delle facciate, la transizione ecologica e circolare impone l’adozione di nuovi modelli di business che sfruttino al massimo il valore della materia. In questo contesto, l’Internet of Things (IoT) è identificato quale poten-ziale driver tecnologico per la diffusione di approcci circolari. Scopo dell’articolo è chiarire il ruolo dell’IoT...
In the façade sector, the ecological and circular transition requires the adoption of new business models that exploit the value of the material as much as possible. In this context, the Internet of Things (IoT) is identified as a potential innovation driver for the widespread use of circular approaches. The aim of the paper is to clarify the role ...
Façade fire testing has been high on the agenda worldwide due to the increased hazard of many occurrences of severe fire spread on façades. There is also international work going on to create a European standard for façade fire testing. In this context it is interesting to clarify what different national test methodologies are based on. This report...
Socila was a school of good manners founded in Rio de Janeiro, with great sucess in the 1950s and 1970s, which is still mentioned in the press as a synonym for elegance. One of its founders, Maria Augusta, taught hundreds of women so called “social improvement”: it was important not only to beautify themselves, but to master techniques of posture a...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions leading to anthropogenic global warming continue to be a major issue for societies worldwide. A major opportunity to reduce emissions is to improve building construction, and in particular the effectiveness of building envelope, which leads to a decrease in operational energy consumption. Improving the performance of ...
The paper explores the potentials of shape memory alloys (SMAs) for the design of autoreactive façade systems without using additional external energy. The exploration is conducted and assessed through the design of a façade concept for the city of Athens in Greece, aiming to improve both the indoor and outdoor environment by means of a kinetic aut...
En Europe, le secteur du bâtiment représente plus d’un tiers des émissions de gaz à effet de serre, principalement dues à leurs besoins de chauffage et de climatisation. Ces dernières décennies ont vu apparaître de nouvelles technologies de façades aux comportements thermiques complexes. Leur but est de rendre l’environnement intérieur confortable ...
