“…However, many parameters can be mutually contradictory and could cause conflicts. Energy efficiency of the building can be decreased due to these conflicts [5,65,66]. In the CABS, there are two main reasons of the conflict between parameters of design.…”

“…Cladding, a part of the external protective structure of buildings, not only provides support for the exterior of the building but also prevents internal concrete and other materials from being damaged [ 6 ]. By comparing the energy properties of different cladding materials, Takano, A. et al [ 7 ] recognized the brick cladding feature as the best material to replace wood planking; however, the manufacturing of bricks involves significant energy costs and results in an increase in environmental pollution.…”

“…As one of the representative cladding materials of modern architecture, glass is mostly set up in high-rise buildings. Owing to the characteristics of glass materials, they are susceptible to dynamic loads, high strains, and shocks; moreover, their inherent characteristics at different extreme loads are also different, resulting in the requirement of specific responses under specific extreme-load conditions [ 6 , 8 , 9 ]. Alternatively, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite cladding systems are a potential candidate for use as cladding, considering their several advantages [ 10 ].…”

“…However, the performance of this system in terms of fire resistance is poor; moreover, when considering the emerging FRP composite system with bio-based composition, factors pertaining to heat, degradation, and other issues must be considered [ 11 ]. Concrete cladding is widely used in civil and public buildings, owing to its unique material properties that are recognized by the general public [ 6 ]. Kim, H. B.…”

In this era of the fourth industrial revolution, the integration of big data and 3D printing technology with the construction industry has maximized productivity. Currently, there is an active effort to research the optimal cladding structure through 3D printing technology to reduce production costs. This paper proposes a new type of 3D print curtain wall, using a high-strength ABS-M30 polymer panel, which is stronger than the standard acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymer, as an internally reinforced structure. This structure is fabricated via fused deposition modeling, a 3D printing method, to reduce the weight of the general cement panel. In addition, the shape of the polymer board was designed; three shapes were considered—O, W, and X types—which aided in further reducing the weight of the cladding. After comparing the center deformation of the structure through a lateral load test and finite element method analysis, the optimal model was selected. The measured data of the two methods at a design wind speed of 100% showed a difference of approximately 10%; however, at 150% of the design wind speed, the difference between the two sets of data increased to 27%.

“…To do so, providing protection from environmental factors is one of its functions (Herzog et al , 2004), among others. The introduction of advanced facade systems as a result of technological progress has broadened the anticipated role of the facades through adding additional performance requirements such as sustainability or cost efficiency (Moghtadernejad et al , 2018). Due to the changing role of the facade, the facade design process has become a multi-stage process in which many stakeholders participate.…”

PurposeIn the construction industry, building facade systems are gaining significance as reflected in the number of facade product innovations available on the market. While research studies on the adoption of these facade product innovations are comparatively limited in number. An awareness of the advantages and impacts that a product innovation brings is critical in its adoption, and therefore the purpose of this paper is to develop a classification framework for the use of producers/vendors present the advantages and impacts of their innovative facade products to the architects.Design/methodology/approachThe study, in addition to literature review, consisted of four main steps without distinct boundaries, namely, (1) case study sample selection regarding facade products, (2) data collection through review of published documents, analysis of the data via content analysis and generation of a preliminary framework for the evaluation of facade product innovations, (3) further data collection through semi-structured interviews and analysis of the products and (4) redefining innovation types and finalizing classification framework through assessment of new facade products.FindingsInnovation types may vary according to the product groups under investigation and viewpoints of the classifications. Selected facade products were evaluated in terms of their specific characteristics through identified viewpoints: as a physical object and as an agent. It was revealed that assessing a product innovation in terms of changes in its structural composition and impact on other related physical objects/processes can change the type of innovation. Additionally, insights about improved characteristics specific to facade products, forms of change in these products and architects' new actions in the facade design process were obtained.Research limitations/implicationsOnly the products stated by the producers/vendors as being new to the Turkish market at the time they were introduced were evaluated in terms of all aspects proposed in the framework. For these products and others that were evaluated, the product data obtained from the producers/vendors have been deemed to be accurate. Research on equivalent products in the market has not been conducted.Originality/valueStudies identifying innovation types in the facade industry are very rare. The proposed framework can be regarded as a detailed investigation of product innovation types in the facade industry which offers component-system level improvement/change analysis. Moreover, it can be an effective tool for producers/vendors to ensure that architects have knowledge about their innovative products and their impacts on facade design and also to facilitate the adoption of these products.
