Identifying Operational Considerations for Sustainable and Resilient Building Systems
While working toward improved energy efficiency in the building sector, building systems need to be more resilient to cope with the dynamic environment. Climate change and the effects of fluctuations in the natural environment impact building systems. They can push buildings to operate at a higher limit than the initial designs leading to failure of the system. One of the most commonly addressed forms of resilience in buildings is the structural system. Other building services and systems should also be resilient to ensure robustness and adaptability. Increasing resilience for existing infrastructure and incorporating resilience into future facilities will be beneficial to achieving the social, environmental, and economic needs of occupants and other stakeholders. The literature was synthesized to identify opportunities for improved resilience in buildings beyond structural systems. This paper explores sustainability, resilience, and resilient building systems and provides recommendations that can advance sustainability and resilience in buildings.
