Holistic study of a timber double skin façade: Whole life carbon emissions and structural optimisation (2017)
Journal Article
Pomponi, F., & D'Amico, B. (2017). Holistic study of a timber double skin façade: Whole life carbon emissions and structural optimisation. Building and Environment, 124, 42-56. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2017.07.046

The upkeep of existing buildings has a great role to play in reducing the carbon emissions of the built environ-ment. Façade upgrade represents one of the most effective interventions to improve both thermal efficiencyand aesthetic appeal of existing...

A Method to Facilitate Uncertainty Analysis in LCAs of Buildings (2017)
Journal Article
Pomponi, F., D'Amico, B., & Moncaster, A. M. (2017). A Method to Facilitate Uncertainty Analysis in LCAs of Buildings. Energies, 10(4), 524. https://doi.org/10.3390/en10040524

Life cycle assessment (LCA) is increasingly becoming a common technique to assess the embodied energy and carbon of buildings and their components over their life cycle. However, the vast majority of existing LCAs result in very definite, determinist... Read More about A Method to Facilitate Uncertainty Analysis in LCAs of Buildings.
