Sustainable Refurbishment Method for Industrialized Public Residential Buildings in the Mediterranean Climate ; Umweltverträgliche Sanierungsmethode für öffentliche Wohngebäude im Montagebau in der mediterranen Klimazone
The European Directive 2010/31/UE, so called Directive 20/20/20, requires intervening on existing buildings, hugely polluting and with a low energy efficiency. Indeed, the building sector accounts for about the 40% of total energy consumption in the Union and, in Italy, the 27% of energy consumption is due to the residential sector, since the 70% of existing residential buildings has a low record of energy efficiency. Retrofitting of existing residential buildings offers therefore a significant opportunity for reducing global energy consumption. The research defines a sustainable refurbishment method for public residential buildings made with industrialized techniques in the Mediterranean climate, starting from the results obtained by the application of renovation strategies to some sample buildings built with these construction methods during the 60s-80s, located in the Florence area. Two building complexes are analysed: COMPLEX A located in Prato consisting of 2 buildings and COMPLEX B located in Firenze involving 4 buildings. The thesis is structured in 5 main chapters: Chapter-1 analyses the field of interest, the aim and the methodology of the work. It explains the current situation of social housing in Italy, going then to introduce the buildings chosen as sample cases; Chapter-2 includes a literature research on the common methodology and strategies used in the sustainable refurbishment in Europe and in Italy; Chapter-3 investigates the buildings chosen for the study. This analysis consists of two sections. The first one is the study of the Environmental and Technological System; the second part consists of the Energy Analysis of the constructions; Chapter-4 shows the application of some strategies on one of the buildings chosen for the research, taken as sample case for the definition of the method. These strategies start from the recovery of the building’s envelope up to the application of ventilation techniques, aiming at solving energy consumption issues in Winter and at improving indoor comfort ...
