One of the techniques used to achieve a seamless outer appearance is the shadow box system, which is composed of two layers of glazing with an air cavity in between. It has gained widespread popularity in markets worldwide due to its potential for creative design and flexibility. However, it is prone to issues such as condensation, contamination, and overheating. This research utilized a mockup test approach to study the issue of overheating in shadow box systems and analyze the main causes of this problem. The findings have significant implications for the design of shadow box systems. The results of the mockup test indicate sun altitude in relation to the geolocation and facade orientation plays a major role in overheating the shadow box. Additionally, careful consideration should be given to the design of ventilation openings to mitigate the overheating issue. This ongoing analysis aims to develop strategies to mitigate the issues found in shadow box systems and future research will involve a comprehensive analysis of various types of shadow box systems.","lang":"eng"}]},{"has_accepted_license":"1","_id":"10440","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2023-09-25T12:57:30Z","type":"conference_speech","publication":"18th Healthy Buildings Europe Conference","date_updated":"2024-01-29T09:19:54Z","user_id":"83780","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"People in cities are often exposed to complex mixtures of sounds, some originating from nature along with some created by human activities like traffic noise, sounds of industrial machinery, or music. This research aimed to study how the acoustic environment of a university campus is perceived by people. The procedures for soundscape data collection and analysis were based on the ISO 12913 series. 30 volunteers divided into four groups participated in a “soundwalk” at the campus of the architecture school in Detmold, Germany, filling out questionnaires while sound\r\nmeasurements and recordings were being taken. After the soundwalk, the data from the questionnaires, sound measurements, recordings, pictures and videos were analyzed. The findings suggest that people’s perception of sound is susceptible to the context, as participants seemed to shift their preference according to the ongoing\r\nactivities that drew attention, such as a construction site, sounds from children playing, music and groups of people. The results provide new evidence and insights about the acoustic environment and the soundscape of the university campus and can inform stakeholders to improve environmental quality."}],"department":[{"_id":"DEP1034"}],"conference":{"end_date":"2023-06-14","start_date":"2023-06-11","name":"18th Healthy Buildings Europe Conference","location":"Aachen, Germany"},"author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-4118-2838","last_name":"Balderrama","full_name":"Balderrama, Alvaro","id":"74171","first_name":"Alvaro"},{"full_name":"Erol, Aylin","first_name":"Aylin","last_name":"Erol"},{"first_name":"Johanna","last_name":"Götz","full_name":"Götz, Johanna"},{"first_name":"Alessandra","full_name":"Luna-Navarro, Alessandra","last_name":"Luna-Navarro"},{"last_name":"Kang","full_name":"Kang, Jian","first_name":"Jian"},{"first_name":"Daniel","id":"58805","last_name":"Arztmann","full_name":"Arztmann, Daniel"},{"last_name":"Knaack","first_name":"Ulrich","full_name":"Knaack, Ulrich"}],"ddc":["620"],"year":"2023","publisher":"RWTH Aachen","status":"public","title":"Soundscape Assessment at a University Campus in Detmold, Germany","publication_status":"published","citation":{"short":"A.

International organizations are making efforts to prevent health damage due to high levels of noise in cities, but the design of the built environment typically neglects the acoustic impact of architectural projects. Building facades, covering a substantial part of the vertical surfaces of the urban fabric, have a significant effect on the wellbeing of the population and on the environmental impact of buildings. Facade geometries and materials interact with the diversity of sounds in the city composing soundscapes that influence the health, comfort, and productivity of people inside and outside of buildings. This study gives an overview of the elements involved in the composition of the urban soundscape and revises the potential effects of sound-reflective and sound-absorptive facades. With the purpose of exemplifying the integration of acoustic data into facade design processes, a parametric design workflow is developed to experiment with acoustic simulations of a street environment, alternating between sound-reflective and sound-absorptive facades.","lang":"eng"}]}]
