| 101-0588-01L | Re-/Source the Built Environment | W | 3 KP | 2S | G. Habert | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The course focuses on material choice and energy strategies to limit the environmental impact of construction sector. During the course, specific topics will be presented (construction technologies, environmental policies, social consequences of material use, etc.). The course aims to present sustainable options to tackle the global challenge we are facing and show that "it is not too late". | |||||
| Lernziel | After the lecture series, the students are aware of the main challenges for the production and use of building materials. They know the different technologies/propositions available, and environmental consequence of a choice. They understand in which conditions/context one resource/technology will be more appropriate than another | |||||
| Inhalt | A general presentation of the global context allows to identify the objectives that as engineer, material scientist or architect needs to achieve to create a sustainable built environment. The course is then conducted as a serie of guest lectures focusing on one specific aspect to tackle this global challenge and show that "it is not too late". The lecture series is divided as follows: - General presentation - Notion of resource depletion, resilience, criticality, decoupling, etc. - Guest lectures covering different resources and proposing different option to build or maintain a sustainable built environment. | |||||
| Skript | For each lecture slides will be provided. | |||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | The lecture series will be conducted in English and is aimed at students of master's programs, particularly the departments ARCH, BAUG, ITET, MAVT, MTEC and USYS. No lecture will be given during Seminar week. | |||||
| 102-0348-00L | Prospective Environmental Assessments Prerequisite for this lecture is basic knowledge of environmental assessment tools, such as material flow analysis, risk assessment and life cycle assessment. Students without previous knowledge in these areas need to read according textbooks prior to or at the beginning of the lecture. | W | 3 KP | 2G | S. Hellweg, N. Heeren, A. Spörri | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | This lecture deals with prospective assessments of emerging technologies as well as with the assessment of long-term environmental impact caused by today's activities. | |||||
| Lernziel | - Understanding prospective environmental assessments, including scenario analysis techniques, prospective emission models, dynamic MFA and LCA. - Ability to properly plan and conduct prospective environmental assessment studies, for example on emerging technologies or on technical processes that cause long-term environmental impacts. - Being aware of the uncertainties involved in prospective studies. - Getting to know measures to prevent long-term emissions or impact in case studies - Knowing the arguments in favor and against a temporally differentiated weighting of environmental impacts (discounting) | |||||
| Inhalt | - Scenario analysis - Dynamic material flow analysis - Temporal differentiation in LCA - Systems dynamics tools - Assessment of future and present environmental impact - Case studies | |||||
| Skript | Lecture slides and further documents will be made available on Moodle. | |||||
