In this study , the assessment results of a high perfbrmance building by fbur environmental assessmen 毛 me 出ods : BREEAM , LEED , GBTool and CAS − BEE are compared to understand the similarities and the differences of the assessment metkods , In additjon , to compare the assessment results in detail , three high perfbrmance buildings and a low perfbrmance bui 里 ding afe assessed by fbul environmental assessment Inethods , Thereby , this study specifies the similarities and differences of each assessment methods ,
Energy consumption and CO2 emission due to construction of buildings in China and Japan are described in this report. As more than 400 industrial sectors are contained in Japanese IO table and 30 sectors in Chinese IO tables, energy consumption and CO2 intensities of dominant materials used in building are derived from energy consumption in factories and equipments are derived from IO analysis. Energy and CO2 intensities of main materials used in building construction in China and Japan and the calculation methods are shown in this report. Office buildings in both countries are calculated as a case study. The intensities of materials in China are 2-3 times larger than Japan and energy consumption and CO2 emission due to construction of office building in China is 10-20% larger than in Japan. Though energy consumption of structure in China is 2-3 times larger than in Japan, interior finish works and equipments for air conditioning etc. are smaller. Energy consumption due to Chinese office building construction are almost same as Japanese.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
