“…di 0,081 kgCO 2 eq contro lo 0,0854 kgCO 2 eq del termo intonaco di benchmark con EPS, mentre i valori di trasmittanza termica tra i due sono allineati (rispettivamente λ=0,086 W/mK e λ=0,087 W/mK). Le prestazioni termiche di laboratorio sono state confermate dalla campagna di monitoraggio su edifici dimostratori, i quali hanno fornito risposte positive in merito alle fasi di applicazione, alla compatibilità su supporti (laterizio, pietra) e alle performance termiche in situ (Carbonaro et al, 2016).…”

Today’s construction sector is able to act as a catalyst for circular processes in synergy with various industrial supply chains, including those that include the reuse of plant by-products, which can potentially be used as secondary raw materials (SRM). These processes fall within a research cluster described through four projects, articulated on the basis of an experimental work method, performance monitoring and assessment of environmental impact. The activities of the cluster have led to collaboration between companies and universities, laying the foundations for process and product innovation, highlighting the need to implement tools and policies to streamline SRM recovery and storage chains.

This study explores the role of Energy Retrofit (ER) in Low Carbon Transition (LCT). The literature recognises the need to move towards a transdisciplinary approach in ER, which encompasses multidisciplinarity and interdisciplinarity. However, the fragmentation between different disciplines remains a significant problem, mainly due to challenges associated with knowledge exchange across the allied disciplines that play a role in ER. The authors posit that ER projects has been conceptualised and implemented using a Systems perspective so that an integrated approach that is akin to transdisciplinarity could become commonplace. Against this background, the aim of this paper is to establish to what extent ER has been conceptualised as a System in the literature so that complexities can effectively be managed through a transdisciplinary approach. This work is based on a literature review of 136 peer-reviewed journal papers. The content analysis demonstrates that current research on transdisciplinarity in ER can be conceptualised in five categories and 15 lines of research. They are presented as a Conceptual Framework, which is this paper's main contribution to existing knowledge. It reveals the direction of innovation in ER for LCT, and is illustrated as a cognitive map. This map exposes the current fragmentation implicit in the literature, and proposes critical connections that need to be established for a transdisciplinary approach. It also shows that the discourse on LCT changed by moving beyond the building scale; and recognising the need to embrace disruptive and local technologies, and integrating the social and technical aspects of ER. Innovative technical solutions and robust information modelling approaches emerge as key vehicles towards making decisions that pay regard to the economic, social and technical factors and that empower the prosumers to play an active role in LCT.

Building construction technology using clay soil in various forms, already known since ancient times, presents a great potential to regulate indoor humidity, to reduce the indirect impact of construction sector on the environment and on energy consumption. Extensive studies have also been done on the effects of natural fibers on the mechanical and physical behaviour of composite materials in terms of strength, energy efficiency and impact resistance. This work is focused on some natural fiber composites made from different mixtures containing clay soil with different percentages of jute, straw and basalt fibers, in order to determine the ideal mixture between clay and fibers providing the optimum values of thermal inertia, mechanical performance and shrinkage able to improve the energy efficiency of buildings. The mechanical, physical and thermal properties of some specimens have been investigated. The obtained results show an improved mechanical strength and a better thermal conductivity of the clay composite material.
