  • The formation of heat islands causes high energy demand for space cooling and peak cooling loads in conditioned buildings. High-temperature fluctuations on a building roof may cause mechanical stress and increase surface deterioration. Thermal energy storage (TES) systems using microencapsulated phase-change materials (MPCMs) have been recognized as one of the most advanced energy technologies for enhancing the energy efficiency and sustainability of buildings. In this study, we prepared MPCM/paint composites for mitigating the heat island effect and reducing peak temperature. In addition, we carried out thermal and physical analysis of prepared MPCM composite samples by means of SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, DSC, and TGA. Further, we evaluated the dynamic heat transfer performance of heat-storage tiles painted with 10 g of heat-storage paint. From the obtained results, we deduced that MPCM/hydrophilic paint composites are more applicable to various fields, including the building sector, than MPCM/hydrophobic paint composites. On the basis of SEM and FTIR spectroscopy results, we concluded that materials with hydrophilic properties are more compatible with MPCMs than those with hydrophobic properties. In addition, DSC analysis results revealed that MPCM/hydrophilic paint composites have better compatibility, higher latent heat capacity, and better thermal properties than other composites. TGA results showed that hydrophilic-paint-based composites have higher thermal durability than hydrophobic-paint-based composites. Finally, a lot of MPCM-loaded heat-storage tiles showed lower peak temperatures at all measurement positions.

  • As part of the recent low-energy policy, insulation standards for buildings are increasing every year. In addition, the conventional styrofoam heat insulation material has a problem in that the thickness of the heat insulation material to achieve the standard heat transmission rate is rapidly increased. Although the risk of spreading the structure vulnerable to fire due to insufficient spacing between buildings due to thickened insulation is increasing, the high cost of high efficiency insulation is difficult to solve. On the other hand, it is known that the method to be used as a formwork using insulation is excellent in cost reduction effect by reducing the amount of formwork used and simplifying the subsequent insulation work. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the strength characteristics of multi - layered insulation materials with appropriate strength by reducing the thickness of the insulation by appropriately combining high performance phenolic foam insulation and styrofoam insulation.

  • Republic of Korea announced the reduction target to be around 30% of business as usual greenhouse gas emissions by 2020. College campuses were ranked at the 5th of high energy consumption areas in the building sectors. Target management scheme was designed to set greenhouse gas emissions target including several college campuses. Previous studies showed the amount of greenhouse gas emissions with several assumptions such as the applications of renewable energy systems and light emitting diode lamps, etc. Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning model was utilized to simulate future greenhouse gas emissions. This study sets standard model labs for energy saving action programs by applying guidance studies. It has been deduced that energy saving action programs was responsible for reducing 949.5 kWh for each standard model lab and the total reduction of all 59 model labs in the Engineering College building has been calculated to 56,020.5 kWh. The objective of the study is to provide guidelines on standard model laboratory for greenhouse gas emissions reduction on the campus.

  • This study sets the research goal of reducing energy consumption which 'H' University Industry-University Cooperation Foundation and resident companies are concerned with, as well as conducting policy research and data analysis. We tried to present a solution to the problem using the technique. The algorithm showing the greatest reliability in the power of the model for the analysis algorithm of this paper was selected, and the power consumption trend curves per minute and hour were confirmed through predictive analysis while applying the algorithm, as well as confirming the singularity of excessive energy consumption. Through an additional sub-sensor analysis, the singularity of energy consumption of the unit was identified more precisely in the facility rather than in the building unit. Through this, this paper presents a system building model for real-time monitoring of campus power usage, and expands the data center and model for implementation. Furthermore, by presenting the possibility of expanding the field through research on the integration of mobile applications and IoT hardware, this study will provide school authorities and resident companies with specific solutions necessary to continuously solve data-based field problems.

  • As the seriousness of the climate crisis is emphasized, movements to solve it are becoming active. In Korea, efforts to reduce environmental impacts across all industries are being strengthened through the Framework Act on Low Carbon Green Growth. The construction industry predicts the environmental impact of buildings during the entire life cycle, but in the construction process, there is a difference in energy usage depending on the amount of input, and it is difficult to predict the environmental impact if data cannot be collected. Therefore, this study evaluated the environmental impact of energy usage in the apartment construction process as part of the study on predicting and reducing the environmental impact of the construction process of the construction site. To this end, the environmental effects of buildings were set as global warming, resource consumption, and ozone layer effects, and the environmental effects of the actual energy use in the case were evaluated. In addition, based on the evaluation results, the characteristics of the input energy usage were compared and analyzed.

  • Seismic retrofit of an existing steel-reinforced concrete hospital building that features innovative use of a continuous energy-dissipative steel column (CEDC) system is presented in this paper. The special system has been adopted to provide an efficient solution taking into account the difficulties of applying traditional intervention techniques to minimize the impact on architectural functionality and avoid the loss of building function and evacuation during the retrofit implementation. The lateral stiffness and strength of the CEDC system were defined based on the geometric and mechanical properties of the steel strip dampers. The hysteretic behavior under cyclic loadings was defined using a simplified numerical model. Its effectiveness was validated by comparing the results of full-scale experimental data available from the literature. All the main design considerations of the retrofitting plan are described in detail. The effectiveness of the proposed retrofitting system was demonstrated by nonlinear time-history analyses under different sets of earthquake-strong ground motions. The analysis results show that the CEDC system is effective in controlling the deformation pattern and significantly reducing damage to the existing structure during major earthquakes.

  • One of the main concerns of civil engineering researchers is developing or modifying an energy dissipation system that can effectively control structural vibrations, and keep the structural response within tolerable limits during unpredictable events like earthquakes, wind and any kind of thrust load. This article proposes a new type of mass damper system for controlling wideband earthquake vibrations, called Multiple Wall Dampers (MWD). The basic principle of the Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) was used to design the proposed wall damper system. This passive energy dissipation system does not require additional mass for the damping system because the boundary wall mass of the building was used as a damper mass. The multi-mode approach was applied to determine the location and design parameters of the dampers. The dampers were installed based on the maximum amplitude of modes. To optimize the damper parameters, the multi-objective optimization Response Surface Methodology was used, with frequency response and maximum displacement as the objective functions. The obtained structural responses under different earthquake forces demonstrated that the MWD is one of the most capable tools for reducing the responses of multi-storied buildings, and this system can be practically used for new and existing building structures.

  • 최근 환경문제 해결 및 미래 성장동력 확보를 위해 전 산업 분야에 걸쳐 친환경 에너지의 활용이 지속적으로 이루어 지고 있다. 특히 설치장소의 제약이 없고 무한한 태양에너지를 활용한 태양광발전 산업에 관심이 집중되고 있으며, 건설산업에서도 건물통합형 태양광발전에 대한 연구와 사례적용이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 최근 건축물의 초고층화는 시공단계에서의 에너지 소비를 크게 증가시키며, 이에 따라 시공단계에서의 친환경에너지 활용 방안에 관한 연구가 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초고층 거푸집 공사 전력공급을 위한 PV시스템(PVFS)을 제안하고 설계 및 적용타당성 분석을 수행함으로써, 건물시공 단계에서의 친환경 에너지 활용에 대한 가능성을 모색하였다. 사례연구를 통해 설계된 PVFS에 대한 설치면적 위치 확보 및 거푸집 허용하중 초과 여부, 공정영향, 경제성 검토를 수행하였으며, 그 결과 기술발전을 통한 경제성 문제가 해결된다면 가까운 미래에 현장 적용 가능성이 충분할 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구결과는 시공현장에서의 친환경 에너지 적용 가능성을 제시함으로써 친환경에너지 접목을 통한 새로운 건축환경 구축에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

  • This paper investigates the effectiveness of the MR damper-based control systems for seismic protection of base isolated building sturcutres employing some semiactive control algorithms, such as the modified clipped-optimal control, the maximum energy dissipation, and the modulated homogeneous friction, by examining the Phase I smart base isolated benchmark building problem. The results of the numerical simulations showed that most of the control systems considered herein could be beneficial in reducing seismic responses, especially base displacement or isolator deformation, of base isolated building structures. It is also verified that another version of the modified clipped-optimal control algorithm proposed in this study and the modulated homogeneous friction algorithm are more effective than other semiactive control algorithms.
