New jobs thanks to sustainable building

The development of sustainable building also brings news on the employment front, with new figures that look out on the market and more traditional roles called to reinvent themselves in order not to lose their attractiveness. "The green building is supporting the construction market and it is certainly not a temporary phenomenon," reflects John Buccheri, energy and construction manager Antoitalia Group. "To find work in the field requires a mix of skills in the planning of the project in the field of housing, urban planning, engineering and materials technology."

The architect who specializes in bio-compatibility

The main professionals involved in green building are "the architect, who must have an extensive knowledge of eco-friendly materials and especially their characteristics and fields of use," adds Buccheri, "and the designer of air, called to integrate the characteristics of the materials and plant components to make the construction according to environmental and climate characteristics that must be inserted. "

Home energy efficient: CNR project

The excellence of research and of Italian craftsmanship together to design sustainable buildings of the future. The National Research Council CNR-Ivalsa, the European Centre for Enterprise and Innovation Trentino (Ceii), Habitech-dttn (Trentino Technology District for Energy and the Environment) and a consortium of 13 companies have joined the craft Trentino forces to carry out the project Mai, the "Living module Ivalsa."

The MAI is a building built entirely of wood, it is a house of 33 square meters (two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, a living room and two terraces of 16 square meters) with high energy efficiency. The house consists of 5 modules prefabricated and transportable that are joined to form a single building as stated Ceccotti Ario, director of the National Research Council and project leader who adds: "One of the absolutely innovative characteristics, compared to the traditional wooden prefabrication , is that once you arrive on site must not do is tighten the bolts. With this system, it is also possible to construct buildings of any size and architectural form. "

Judicial properties sales: types, investments

The real estate auctions are convenient because they usually attribute to a property a lower price than would generally be sold or agency, the savings can reach 20% of the property value. Participating in a real estate auction, however, is not always easy, it is therefore necessary to be well informed.

Real Estate Auctions: some tips

When you decide to buy through a real estate auction, the first thing to do is to choose the apartment for which you decide to participate in the sale. In addition to that, it is good: go see the house in person and assess their housing status; make a cadastral for pending charges on the property, make sure that the property, if derived from seizure by garnishment, it is inhabited by any tenants / owners because in that case it can happen, they do not want to leave home (in this case you will have to provide in order to forcible removal, through law enforcement).

Tributes to be paid for property purchase

When you buy a property, it is necessary to know the amount of taxes payable to the State: their weight, in fact, may be such as to influence the choice of the property in a decisive way.

The tributes that come into play are divided into two groups: on the one hand and the VAT registration taxes, mortgage and land on the other. Their amount, however, varies markedly if it is possible to enjoy the facilities on the first house or not.

Quality building components: durability

The durability of building components is a quality that shows the time behavior of building components and is defined by the UNI 11156, "Evaluation of the durability of building components," such as the ability to perform the functions required during a specified period of time, under the influence of agents expected to exercise.

The propensity of the component performance studied in relation to the requirement of durability is obtained from learning of his life accompanied by the reliability of the component itself. The technical element is suffering a natural drop of performance over time in relation to the useful life also own the materials used to make it.

Service networks in construction sites: possible risks

In some networks, the building industry and technical services may constitute a high hazard. Preventive measures and instructions for employees in the presence of sewage networks, water distribution networks, electricity, gas and other energy sources.

In the database of bibliographic records contained in the "Risk assessment in building construction" - a collaboration between the Territorial Joint Committee and the Province of Turin (Torino CPT) and the 'INAIL Piedmont - several tabs are dedicated to risks due to networks and technical services in the yard or around the area.

House Plan 2011 contained within the Development Decree 2011

It has been published in the Official Gazette number 110 of May 13, the so-called decree development, which contains within it the provisions of the new house plan 2011. Here are the new rules that allow you to build or expand their home according to different criteria:

Private construction

1. To liberalize private buildings are made

amendments to the rules in force in the following terms:

Situation Analysis infrastructures in Italy

"Infrastructure's time to change step," was the title of the conference proposed by Unioncamere and Cape Horn, which took place in recent weeks in Rome. During the meeting, was presented the 1st report on the state of infrastructure in our country.

Italy in its 40-year history has had access to almost 4 thousand km of motorways, coming immediately after Germany who had more than 6 thousand. Today our country has 6,600 km of highways, while Germany has nearly 13 thousand.

Our relationship plummet regard to rail transport, of 16 thousand km of track operated by the Italian railway network, only a thousand are at high speed. In addition, the South to this day marks a negative point against him, his endowment date is still largely monorail.

Innovative techniques of buildings construction

There going on all over the planet a search for new ways to build our housing forms for you to have a content that is between innovation and the recovery of an ancient attitude of lightness, a mobility of our living that suits all 'environment. I refer to the textile architectures, those architectures that build membranes and read messages that seem of one of our "unconscious" that reminds us of our more ancient origin. In fact, from the Paleolithic man inhabits its space by adapting their way of life to the possibilities that the environment has to offer. It is a long journey, an evolution for survival and that started about 2 million years ago. Until the beginning of the build from the origins coincide with the beginning of the texture: the wood weave and weave hemp are the first acts of building his own house.

Building envelope: concept, classification and types

The building envelope is an architectural element that defines and concludes the perimeter of the body construction and structural (it is therefore called "frontier"). Its function is to mediate, separate and connect the inside with the outside, but it is also an environmental element, which defines and identifies the external spaces surrounding.

The building envelope consists of all drives technological and technical elements that define morphologically and functionally in three directions, interacting system, the boundary between the internal environment (set of spatial elements and environmental units which must ensure that the needs of 'user) and the external environment (environmental context, boundary conditions) of a building structure. We define building envelope dry construction type of housing in which all the units of technological and technical elements (components and systems elements), with load-bearing or non-load bearing joints are assembled with dry and fixed to a structure through the main anchor systems (bolts, screws or welding).
