Primary energy consumption for insulating

Abstract

In this article a mathematical model for thermal protection level analysis is developed. It is based on the consumption rate of primary energy. It allows to calculate the relevant thickness of the selected insulation material under any climatic and economic conditions with any constant layers of building envelope taken from structural considerations. The key factors influencing the model are also evaluated. The main factors to influence the energy model are the region degree-days and the energy consumption rate for the production, transportation and installation of the insulation material. The following results were reached: this approach requires the data, which sometimes has no public access, provides us with an objective assessment criteria when comparing the level of building thermal protection in different countries.

3D models of buildings of the future for use in construction printing

“…Erection of buildings using a construction 3D printer is a promising and rapidly developing area, where new results are achieved every year [1]. So, from 2009 to 2016, such innovative additive technologies as D-Shape -based on the stereolithographic printing process, Minibuilders -a system of three robotic 3D printers with a clear division of functionality, DeltaWASP-high -speed clay printing of residential buildings at an affordable price, as well as the S-1160 construction 3D printer, the Big Delta 3D printer, the ProTo R 3DP robot manipulator, the CyBe RC 3Dp 3D printer, and the INNOprint printer are included in the construction operation [2][3].…”

“…However, modern 3D printers are still limited in their capabilities. Research shows that in addition to their undeniable advantages, they have a number of disadvantages [1][2][3]5,7]. Among them: 1.…”
