Facade staining is a centuries-old building defect that is globally widespread. Millions of dollars are wasted annually for its rectification. A stained building looks old and worn-out, diminishing the value of the property and the confidence in occupying it. The facade's durability may also be affected by staining. Despite these wide and varying downstream implications, facade staining can actually be foreseen and prevented if conscientious efforts are made at the building's planning and design stages. This book provides insight into the underlying causes of facade staining and proposes an approach to address the root of the problem. It aims to raise awareness of crucial factors that should be understood and considered in the prevention or minimization of facade staining, hence reducing resource wastage in unnecessary maintenance work. Staining of Facades will serve as a useful guide for students as well as practitioners in related professions such as architecture, engineering, building, realestate, and project and property management, in their efforts to minimize the life-cycle costs of buildings.

The definitive guide to measurement and estimating using NRM1, written by the author of NRM1 The 'RICS New rules of measurement: Order of cost estimating and cost planning of capital building works' (referred to as NRM1) is the cornerstone of good cost management of capital building works projects - enabling more effective and accurate cost advice to be given to clients and other project team members, while facilitating better cost control. The NRM1 Cost Management Handbook is the essential guide to how to successfully interpret and apply these rules, including explanations of how to: quantify building works and prepare order of cost estimates and cost plans use the rules as a toolkit for risk management and procurement analyse actual costs for the purpose of collecting benchmark data and preparing cost analyses capture historical cost data for future order of cost estimates and elemental cost plans employ the rules to aid communication manage the complete 'cost management cycle' use the elemental breakdown and cost structures, together with the coding system developed for NRM1, to effectively integrate cost management with Building Information Modelling (BIM). In the NRM1 Cost Management Handbook, David Benge explains in clear terms how NRM1 is meant to be used in familiar quantity surveying tasks, as well as a range of activities of crucial importance for professionals in years to come. Worked examples, flow charts, diagrams, templates and check lists ensure readers of all levels will become confident and competent in the use of NRM1. This book is essential reading for anyone working with NRM1, and is the most authoritative guide to practice available for those preparing to join the industry.

Building facades are the first impression of any structure, acting as a bridge between the external environment and the interior spaces. Over the years, the role of facades has evolved far beyond aesthetics, transforming into dynamic systems that enhance energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and environmental sustainability. Facade engineering, as a multidisciplinary field, is at the forefront of this transformation, integrating architecture, engineering, and technology to create building envelopes that are not only visually striking but also high-performing. This book, Facade Engineering: Design and Implementation of Building Facades, is a comprehensive exploration of the design, functionality, and execution of facades in modern buildings. It is intended for architects, engineers, contractors, students, and professionals involved in the built environment, offering insights into the critical considerations of facade design and implementation. From material selection and weather protection to energy efficiency and integration with building services, this book provides a holistic view of facade engineering. It delves into sustainable practices, the incorporation of advanced technologies, and the challenges of retrofitting aging facades to meet modern standards. Real-world case studies and examples further enrich the content, illustrating how innovative facade solutions can address the demands of contemporary architecture and urban development. As the world shifts toward net-zero energy buildings and climate-resilient designs, facades play an increasingly vital role in shaping sustainable and smart cities. By understanding the principles and possibilities of facade engineering, we can contribute to a built environment that not only meets the needs of today but also anticipates the challenges of tomorrow. I invite you to join me on this journey into the fascinating world of facade engineering, where creativity meets science, and innovation drives progress. Whether you are designing a new building, upgrading an existing one, or simply exploring the field, this book offers the knowledge and inspiration to push the boundaries of what facades can achieve.

The Cradle to Cradle ("C2C") concept is a biomimetic approach that models human industry on nature's processes, viewing materials as nutrients circulating in healthy and safe metabolisms. It seeks to create systems that are not only efficient but also essentially waste free. A growing number of building owners and developers are looking to implement it in their buildings, be it to increase the productivity of their workforce, or to provide a differentiator. The C2C concept is reasonably covered in building construction; however, it is a rather uncharted area in building services, making it difficult for MEP engineers to develop C2C-inspired designs. Arup set out to bridge this gap, establishing how C2C-inspired design would look like in the different MEP disciplines, and researching which systems, products and materials are available in the market to meet the corresponding criteria. The result is a comprehensive guideline that enables MEP engineers to develop a C2C-inspired design. It covers design criteria, system selection, system sizing, design for deconstruction, as well as material and product selection for the main MEP disciplines, and sets out a number of criteria by which the aptness of a design for C2C can be measured.
