“…Therefore, it is convenient to implement the construction of rural residential buildings [ 16 ]. In this regard, when designing passive energy-saving technologies for residential buildings, the local living habits and natural conditions should be fully considered, and energy-saving design concepts should be applied to rural residential buildings [ 17 ]. This is of great significance to the design of modern rural residences [ 18 ].…”

In China, research on winter heating and energy saving for residential buildings mainly focuses on urban residences rather than rural ones. According to the 2018 China Building Energy Consumption Research Report, rural residential buildings emit about 423 million tons of carbon, accounting for 21% of the country’s total carbon emissions. According to the research on China’s greenhouse gas inventory, the main sources of carbon emissions in rural areas are from cooking and the burning of fuelwood and biomass for heating in winter. In this study, the southern Shaanxi area, which is hot in summer and cold in winter, was selected as the research site, and a fire wall system was planned that combines cooking and heating facilities in residential buildings. The system uses the heat generated by cooking and the heat storage capacity of the wall, as well as the principle of thermal radiation and heat convection, to increase the indoor temperature. The advantage is that the hot air generated is mainly concentrated in the inside of the wall, which reduces the direct contact with the cold outdoor air and avoids excess heat loss. In this study, in addition to considering the influence of the cooking fire wall system on the indoor temperature, the difference in the outer wall with or without solar thermal radiation was also considered. The research results show that the use of a cooking fire wall heating system reduces the annual heat load of the building to 440.8318 KW·h, which is a reduction rate of 7.91%. When there is solar radiation on the outer wall, the annual thermal load of the building is reduced by 1104.723 kW·h, and the reduction rate is 19.84%.

The planning and design of "Taman Samarendah” in Samarinda city to mix the traditional to modern architecture aim to facilitate educational activities, worship places for Muslims, and cultural and religious destinations in the field of architecture. The Taman Samarendah located in the ex-land of Junior High School 1 and Senior High School 1 were built in a 2.5-hectare area, specifically around 1.4 hectares is for the park area. The construction began in July 2014 and finished in 2016 and made Samarinda city a Green Open Space. Taman Samarendah is located in the middle of town, so the community can easily access it. This park has bins, lighting, seating, jogging tracks, and other facilities. This study applied the concept formulation approach under a qualitative descriptive method. This study applied a related theoretical foundation technique, either architecture or non-architecture. The data collection was validated for accurate data processing to prepare the concept of planning and design of Taman Samarendah. The planning and design of the Taman Samarendah in Samarinda City with the concept of combining traditional and modern architecture is expected to become a tourist site that has educational value to cultural heritage in terms of architecture and non-architecture and accommodate the Islam worship activities in Samarinda City. The existence and sustainability of traditional houses must be maintained. The traditional houses may disappear faster than we thought. Therefore, further research should review the combination of modern and traditional houses set out in local regulations and laws.

“…Its maintenance and conservation are not priority issues (2), for, in the absence of acknowledgement and appreciation, it is not deemed a tourist attraction. Nonetheless, the cultural significance of a growing number of concrete buildings is prompting listings as heritage assets (3)(4)(5).…”

“…French architects Auguste and Gustave Perret were often contemporarily credited for pointing the way to the modern use of concrete (7). It was not until the twentieth century, however, that it came to be regarded as a 'noble' material, used by modernist, brutalist and expressionist architects (5,8,9) and sculptors (10). That drove the international preference for concrete as a material able to modernise construction art (11).…”

Characterisation and diagnosis of heritage concrete: case studies at the Eduardo Torroja Institute, Madrid, Spain

That the preservation of twentieth concrete heritage is an area scantly explored can be attributed to a lack of appreciation for such a young material. In most cases conservation is broached from a technical perspective with little regard for heritage value. Ongoing assessment of the condition of structures is the primary strategy to minimise such misguided action. This study involved characterising the condition of the concrete in a number of singular elements forming part of the Eduardo Torroja Institute for Construction Science headquarters at Madrid, Spain, a modernist compound listed by the city of Madrid as a protected asset. The in situ findings using non-destructive and laboratory techniques revealed the core concrete to be in good condition. The surface material, however, exhibits signs of durability issues calling for conservation treatments and techniques compatible with the preservation of the integrity and authenticity of this young heritage material.
