Research On Residential Economizing Design And Carbon-emission Reduction

Over the past decade, a large number of residential buildings were constructed in China. Many problems, such as excessive energy consumption within the residential buildings' constructing and using period, which can be converted to the corresponding quantities of carbon-dioxide emissions, emerged in the design progress. Building industry is one of the main sources of carbon-emission, and the nationwide implementation of carbon-emission reduction is inevitable in the coming future.By taking 5 issues in typical residential building floor in Shanghai district as an example: "the shape-coefficient", "the plan notch", "the plan complex", "pipes" and "the toilet-classification", this paper seeks to establish a set of economizing design methods and corresponding carbon-emission reduction effects.The main purpose of the paper can be described as "soft-tech and hard-data", which implicates how to measure the effects of various economizing design methods by the quantity of carbon-emission reduction. This paper includes two main aspects: First, residential carbon-emission reduction calculation models and relevant data; second, residential economizing design methods and carbon-emission reduction effects consistent with the design results.Five main conclusions: First, residential economizing design and carbon-emission reduction is intrinsically linked; second, residential carbon-emission reduction calculation models; third, economizing design methods and corresponding carbon-emission reduction effects in the 5 issues in typical residential building floor in Shanghai district; fourth, primary effect of the promotion in the whole Yangtze River Delta district, fifth, specific suggestions about the residential economizing design.This dissertation is about the sub-topic of the research on soft-technology of economy residence system in the Yangtze River Delta district, which is supported by the Natural Science Foundation of China, (Grant No.50678120).
