“…In addition, adaptive building shells using optimization-oriented decision-making systems, smart materials, innovative details, and other technological approaches contribute to the sustainability of buildings [5][6][7]11,19,30,33,34,56,63,67,68,70,71]. Potential application areas of adaptive building shells have been developing in parallel with technological developments such as control and decision-making systems [5,48,49,51,52,54,69].…”

“…For a building to be resistant to climate change, it is necessary to select the building materials and construction methods that will provide durability regardless of climate conditions and geographical position of the building. By adapting building and construction methods to the local climatic conditions, a high level of protection cannot be achieved, because fluctuations in the local weather conditions are significant, especially concerning low temperatures, rain, wind, solar radiation, and others (Zarzycki, Decker, 2019).…”

Climate changes are recognized as a matter of global importance. They can have a long term monetary and nonmonetary influence on the lives and prosperity of people. Almost all industries are affected by climate change, but insurance companies and the construction industry suffer particularly high pressure. Due to the unpredictability of climate changes and increased risk, the possibility of withdrawing insurance against natural disasters has been considered. From the construction industry, it is required to adapt to changes, by building less polluting buildings, resistant to destructive effects of climate changes. The insurance industry has recognized the direct connection between green-sustainable practices and reduced risk, which in recent years has been the reason, for becoming a leader in creating, energy and resource efficiency. The contribution of this paper is in the demonstration how innovative construction solution can contribute to sustainable insurance and reducing the consequences of climate change.

“…Buildings, as currently designed, possess little awareness of their physical condition or occupants. While many new smart and embedded technologies are introduced to building operations and assemblies (Zarzycki and Decker 2019), there is still no comprehensive reconceptualization of what the built environment could and should be-rethinking materiality, systems, and intellectual frameworks.…”

This paper discusses strategies for the integration of embedded technologies within the built environment to optimize and increase occupant safety and egress. It builds on synergies between building components with embedded smart technologies and enhanced occupant interactions. The 'Smart Egress' project facilitates building occupant evacuation during emergencies. It integrates distributed sensing and traffic/occupancy monitoring with adaptive signage and wayfinding-physical building assets interconnected with virtual counterparts (digital twins)-a customizable web-based dashboard to monitor activities and for direct controls as well as a mobile app. The 'Emergency Response' projects extends that approach with web-based interfaces for occupants and first responders. It provides emergency responders with visualization of building occupancy and temperature data in individual rooms and spaces. This allows for targeted actions optimizing responders' time and building conditions.
