Influence of Design on the Service Life of Pitched Roofs’ Cladding

Abstract

In recent years, the number of Chinese aging population continues to increase, the design of public self-service aging population can effectively improve the social work efficiency based on social cost savings, solve some of the problems of an aging society. Through the analysis and summary of the needs of the elderly population, at the same time, the current situation of the use of public self-service facilities in the region are studied, and the corresponding design methods and principles. Finally, through the investigation and study for the aging of regional public service design background and providing experience, design of regional public self-service to play better, to provide high-quality personalized service for the elderly.

Failure and damage determination of building roofs

“…E) Some research papers have noted that aspects as basic as the design of slopes, the thermal insulation and the ventilation systems or the specification of incompatible materials are the most frequent design errors (Garcez et al, 2015).…”

“…Other researches consider different aspects, highlighting the importance of the design stage, for its primordial importance on the durability of construction elements in general and, as a result, on buildings' service life (Garcez, Lopes, de Brito, Sá & Silvestre, 2015). On the other hand, an environmental analysis of the life cycle, based on an evaluation of different replacement options, may affect the choice of the sustainable design alternatives of flat roofs (Napolano, Menna, Asprone, Prota & Manfredi, 2015).…”

Cuantificación porcentual de los daños existentes en los revestimientos interiores de las viviendas españolas

“…Garcez et al (5) dan una importancia primordial a la fase de diseño, por la importancia que tiene la misma en la durabilidad a futuro de los elementos constructivos y su repercusión en la vida útil de éstos. A efectos de la planificación del mantenimiento y la estimación de la vida útil, los resultados obtenidos en otros estudios (6) recomiendan que la cuantificación global de daños es interesante hacerla con el uso de herramientas y modelos holísticos, en función de las deficiencias existentes en cada caso.…”

Calculation of the Risk of Lawsuits over Construction Flaws in Flat Roofs

“…For owners as well as owners of buildings, the existence of a quality management system during the design stage of waterproofing systems would ensure higher levels of comfort in buildings, as well as higher efficiency throughout the service life [8]. According to Garcez et al [9] design defects in roofs are a constant characteristic in many countries, and only an improvement of the quality of design planning can lead to a significant reduction in execution defects and to a maximization of the service life of these elements. As Conceição et al [10] consider that it is necessary to increase both the effectiveness and objectivity of the actions required for the repair of construction flaws, they accordingly centered their research of 105 flat roofs on the inspection, diagnosis and rehabilitation of this construction element.…”

“…In that paper, it is suggested that a modification in how designs are produced could have decisively led to a different outcome with regard to quality. Results from other countries might be worse still, as Garcez et al [9] have observed that, in many countries, the execution of flat roofs is usually not based on designs which include specific construction details or views with sufficient definition.…”
