Abstract:In the construction industry, sustainability is evaluated, not only in terms of harmful emissions generated during the operation phase, but also in terms of the embodied emissions belonging to building materials and technical equipment. As a consequence, the implementation of highly efficient building materials has become crucial. The objective of this study is to investigate an insulation system based on parallel air chambers embodied in rockwool panels, and to correlate the implications of its implementation… Show more
