Building Resilience in Urban Settlements Through Green Roof Retrofit
This book is intended to make a significant contribution to our understanding of best practice in sustainable adaptations to existing commercial buildings in respect of green roof retrofit by offering new knowledge‐based theoretical and practical insights, and models grounded in results of empirical research conducted within eight collaborative construction project team settings in Australia, the UK and Brazil. The results demonstrate that these new models can assist with informed decision‐making in adaptations that challenge some of the prevailing solutions, which do not accommodate the sustainability dimension. Collectively, the studies offer guidance towards a balanced approach to decision‐making in respect of green roof retrofitting that incorporates sustainable and optimal approaches towards effective management of sustainable adaptation of existing commercial buildings – from strategic policy‐making level to individual building level.
