Translating Design Details to Construction Details- with Both Eyes Open (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Sajjadianm, S. (2017). Translating Design Details to Construction Details- with Both Eyes Open. In International Conference for Sustainable Design of the Built Environment: Proceedings (983-990)

Sustainable designs will come to nothing if they are lost in construction process. Therefore, the accuracy of design details and the transformation to the construction details is vital to achieve initial design thinking targets. This is driven most i...

Performance evaluation of well-insulated versions of contemporary wall systems—A case study of London for a warmer climate (2017)
Journal Article
Sajjadian, S. M. (2017). Performance evaluation of well-insulated versions of contemporary wall systems—A case study of London for a warmer climate. Buildings, 7(1), Article 6. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings7010006

Climate change and its consequences are of a great concern and the likely increasing temperature would add more dilemmas for the choice of passive design options. The performance of building envelopes is one of the key determinants of energy use and...
