“…A lot of research focused on studying building energy consumption and building technologies, including projections of future building energy demand (Eom et al, 2012;Gouveia et al, 2012;Li et al, 2012), impacts of climate change on building energy demand (Xu et al, 2012;Zhou et al, 2014;Wan et al, 2011), building heating and cooling loads (Hepbasli, 2012;Wang and Chen, 2014), and application of renewable energy in buildings (Li et al, 2013;Liu et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2015). Another bunch of research has explored characteristics of building materials, including thermal properties of certain material (Latha et al, 2015;Park et al, 2015), energy efficiency of building components (Ihara et al, 2015;Thiele et al, 2015), its impacts on environmental emissions such as VOC and GHG (Cheng et al, 2015;Marsono and Balasbaneh, 2015), sustainable and low emission building materials (Ng and Chau, 2015;Akadiri, 2015;Jelle et al, 2015).…”
