An Embedded Concept for Sustainable Building by Yamna Soussi; Hicham Bahi; Hicham Mastouri; Abderrahim El Bouazouli is a Engineering article available to read on EtoBox.
Urbanization and population growth contribute significantly to increasing buildings-energy consumption causing negative impact on the environment. This presents a real challenge to design sustainable buildings with the main purpose to improve human well-being. As a response to this challenge, this paper aims to propose, in addition to the different construction techniques for the implementation of energy-efficient buildings, a new smart conceptual framework of sustainable building that generates wealth and improves the social, economic, and environmental aspects, In addition, various green and sustainable building strategies, benefits and drivers related to successful implementation, based on vertical farms technologies such as a new type of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA). Green building structures can reduce annual energy consumption for heating and cooling and water for non-potable purposes loads by 7.48%-56%, and 4.5%-25%, respectively, by selecting the best available approaches according to the aim application, especially in land and water management in the building, resources optimization and management is another dimension considered in this paper. Furthermore, a st
