Today 55 percent of the population in the world lives in urban areas which is expected to increase to 68 percent by the year 2050. In the cities, high-rise buildings as symbols of the modern cityscape are dominating the skylines, but the data to demonstrate their embodied energy and environmental impacts are scarce, compared to low- or mid-rise buildings. Reducing the embodied energy and environmental impacts of buildings is critical as about 42 percent of primary energy use and 39 percent of the global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions come from the building sector. However, it is an overlooked area in embodied energy and environmental impacts of high-rise buildings. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a widely used tool to quantify the embodied energy and environmental impacts of the building sector. LCA combined with Building Information Modeling (BIM) can simplify data acquisition of the building as well as provide both tools with feedback. Several studies recognize that the integration of BIM and LCA can simplify data acquisition of the building as well as provide tools with feedback. This article provides an overview of literature on BIM-based of embodied energy and environmental impacts of high-rise buildings. It also compares with different LCA methodologies. Finally, major strategies to reduce embodied energy and environmental impacts of high-rise buildings, research limitations and trends in the field are covered.

The incorporation of sustainability principles into the structural engineering design of buildings is increasingly important. Historically the focus of improvements to the environmental performance of structures has been operational energy considerations. Current research has highlighted the requirement for changing the approach by increasing the consideration of embodied energy in structures. This research was conducted to build on previous research by the authors in quantifying the contribution of column optimization to the embodied energy performance of concrete framed buildings. Ultimately, the authors intend to develop mechanisms through which sustainable design can be quantified, enabling alleviation prior to construction. Columns are a key structural element to consider as part of this development process. The outcomes of this assessment reinforced previous findings, observing that reduced structural weight as a result of other sustainable design measures carries manifold benefits include column design savings. Through the quantification of the embodied energy outcomes during this research phase, the columns were shown to contribute up to 19.71% of the total embodied energy of the structural system dependent upon construction technique used.

This study aim at demonstrating the environmental performance of freight transport of the rail and road mode through an indicator of embodied energy and $CO_2$ emissions. Using the concept of LCA, the scope of evaluation includes energy production, supply chain activity and operation. The results of embodied energy and $CO_2$ emissions are normalized by means of traffic volume. The results shown that embodied $CO_2$ emissions road mode is 607.07 $gCO_2-eq./tkm$ and 284.67 $gCO_2-eq./tkm$ for road and rail mode, respectively. This number reveals that road mode is 2.1 times larger than rail mode. The results also indicate that the main contribution of $CO_2$ emission from road mode is in the operation stage, which accounts for 70%; however, it is the construction and supply chain stage that accounts for over 50% of the emission of rail mode.

Recently, the environmental conservation has been emphasized over the world. Building industry should carefully reflected the development focused on the economic aspect as well as the environmental considerations. Therefore, it requires the technology development to mitigate the environmental pollution through the reducement of the energy and resources usage amount over the building life cycle. For these, it should be required to set up the analysis methodology to grasp the amount of the environmental pollution and energy and resources in each step of building life cycle. In this paper, it aimed at preparing the analysis process and analyzing the embodied energy and $CO_2$ and $SO_x$ emission according to the building work, field work, mechanical and electrical work on the new building and remodelling, utilizing the inventory analysis which is one of the LCA process.

본 연구는 콘크리트 구조설계기준을 만족시키면서 내재에너지와 이산화탄소 배출량을 최적화할 수 있는 철근 콘크리트 기둥에 대한 지속가능 설계법을 제시한다. 지속가능 설계법은 기존의 비용절감 중심의 강도설계법에서 벗어나 철근 콘크리트 구조물의 환경 및 에너지 소비에 대한 부하를 최소화할 수 있게 해준다. 철근 콘크리트 기둥의 파괴모드는 가해지는 축력과 휨의 비율에 따라 인장지배와 압축지배로 나누어지기 때문에 각각의 지배모드에 대한 최적화 해석을 수행하였다. 다양한 단면형상과 철근량에 대해 비용, 내재에너지, 이산화탄소 배출량을 최적화시킨 단면을 산출하고 그 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 최적화 해석결과에 대한 분석을 통해 비용을 약 10% 증가시킬 때 내재에너지는 약 25% 그리고 이산화탄소 배출량은 약 55%까지 감소시킬 수 있음을 보였다. 특히, 기둥이 인장지배 상태인 경우 압축지배 상태인 경우보다 내재에너지와 이산화탄소 배출량을 더 큰 폭으로 감소시킬 수 있음을 보였다. 결과적으로 지속가능 설계법은 비용의 최소화 외에도 강도설계법에서 고려하지 않았던 내재에너지나 이산화탄소 배출량을 감소 또는 최적화하는 설계를 가능케 하여 지속가능개발의 개념을 철근 콘크리트 구조물 설계에 도입할 수 있도록 해주는 것을 확인하였다.

In high-density high-rise cities such as Hong Kong, buildings account for nearly 90% of energy consumption and 61% of carbon emissions. Therefore, it is important to study the design of buildings, especially high-rise buildings, to achieve lower carbon emissions in the city. The carbon emissions of a building consist of embodied carbon from the production of construction materials and operational carbon from energy consumption during daily operation (e.g., air-conditioning and lighting). An integrated analysis of both types of carbon emissions can strengthen the design of low carbon buildings, but most of the previous studies concentrated mainly on either embodied or operational carbon. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to develop a holistic methodology framework considering both embodied and operational carbon, in order to enhance the sustainable design of low carbon high-rise buildings. The framework will be based on the building information modeling (BIM) technology because BIM can be integrated with simulation systems and digital models of different disciplines, thereby enabling a holistic design and assessment of low carbon buildings. Structural analysis program is first coupled with BIM to validate the structural performance of a building design. The amounts of construction materials and embodied carbon are then quantified by a BIM-based program using the Dynamo programming interface. Operational carbon is quantified by energy simulation software based on the green building extensible Markup Language (gbXML) file from BIM. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) will be applied to analyze the ambient wind effect on indoor temperature and operational carbon. The BIM-based framework serves as a decision support tool to compare and explore more environmentally-sustainable design options to help reduce the carbon emissions in buildings.

In this study, twenty-five geopolymer (GP) mixes were prepared by varying the alkaline solids to Metakaolin (MK) and sodium silicate to NaOH ratios from 0.1 to 0.5 and 0.2 to 1.0, respectively, thus giving a wide range of molar ratios of silica to alumina, sodium oxide to alumina and water to sodium oxide. The compressive strength of these GP mixes was determined for four curing schemes involving oven curing at 100℃ for 24 h and three ambient curing with the curing ages of 3, 14, and 28 days. The test results revealed that for the manufacture of GP binder for structural applications of strength up to 90 MPa, the molar ratio of silica to alumina should be greater than 2.3, sodium oxide to alumina should be between 0.6 to 1.2, and water to sodium oxide should not exceed 12. The compressive strength of ambient cured GP mortar gets stabilized at 28 days of ambient curing. Experimental findings were also corroborated by GP microstructure analysis. The embodied energy of MK-based GP mortars, especially of high strength, is significantly less than the cement mortar of equivalent strength.

본 연구에서는 LCA 모델을 이용하여 8개 초등학교 건축물의 생애주기 에너지사용량 및 이산화탄소 배출량을 평가 분석하였다. 이를 위하여, 자재생산, 자재운송, 시공, 운영, 해체 폐기단계를 포함하는 건축물 생애주기에서의 에너지사용량 및 이산화탄소 배출량을 평가할 수 있는 LCA 기반의 평가모델을 정의하고, 모델을 이용하여 사례 건축물을 평가하였다. 40년의 운영기간을 가정하여 평가한 결과, 내재에너지(즉, 자재생산, 자재운송, 시공단계 에너지사용량의 합), 운영에너지, 해체 폐기에너지는 평균적으로 2,279, 11,182, 228 Mcal/m2로 산출되었다. 각 단계별 평균 이산화탄소 배출량은 604, 2,708, 60 kg-CO2/m2로 산출되었다. 평가결과는 생애주기 에너지사용량 및 이산화탄소 배출량의 약 17%가 자재생산, 자재운송, 시공단계에서 발생한다는 사실을 보여준다. 따라서 건축물의 에너지사용량 및 이산화탄소 배출량 감축 목표를 달성하기 위해서는 내재에너지 및 이산화탄소 배출량이 반드시 고려되어야 할 것이다. 게다가, 운영에너지는 지역에 따라 확연하게 구분되는 반면, 내재에너지는 지역에 따른 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 운영단계의 에너지 사용량 편차를 줄이기 위해서는 지역에 따라 보다 상세하게 구분된 단열 기준이 제시되어야 할 것이다.
