4 CRC for Construction Innovation Program B: Sustainable Built Assets Director: Dr. Peter Newton Program Objective: To enhance the sustainability of built assets via their design and operation through: sound conceptual basis for economic, social and environmental representation and accounting of the built environment; new virtual building tools capable of examining design performance prior to construction and use; regenerating the built environment to deliver higher levels of TBL performance, and assessing human health and productivity benefits associated with the creation of smart, high quality indoor environments. 4

5 STREAMS Sustainable Subdivisions Sustainability Frameworks Regenerating Construction Indoor Environments PROGRAM B: SUSTAINABLE BUILT ASSETS Sustainable Commercial Buildings Virtual Prototyping of Built Assets (for TBL assessment) 5

6 STREAM 1 Sustainability Framework Objective: To advance our theoretical and practical understanding of sustainability in the context of built environments and their occupants Sustainability and the Future BCA B Ashe Standards, Regulations Theory, Concept, Frameworks Sustainability Indicators for the Built Environment B Newton Triple Bottom Line Benchmarks and Appraisal Processes for Commercial Property B Boyd Indicators CRC CI Green Space initiative, Australian Sustainable Build Environment Council Practice SUSTAINABILITY FRAMEWORK Methods for TBL Accounting Multi-Hazard Risk Assessment B Ashe 6

7 STREAM 2 Virtual Prototyping of Built Assets Objective: To enable a virtual prototyping of whole buildings or parts of structures prior to their construction, including an ability to facilitate assessments of their TBL performance against established benchmarks. The ICT toolkit for AEC applications include: inter-operability, visualisation, automation, collaboration and integration, real time design experimentation, etc. Code Checking B Drogemuller Code Checking - Phase B Ding Design, Cost and Work Methods B Drogemuller Parametric Building Design B Crawford Design Automation Building Design VIRTUAL PROTOTYPING OF BUILT ASSETS Information Flows in Virtual Environments Collaborative Design Stage 2 - Managing Information Flows with 3D models C Drogemuller Managing Information Flows C Drogemuller Life Cycle Modelling B Gero Team Collaboration in High Bandwidths B Maher Telecollaboration in the iroom for Design and Construction B Drogemuller 7

9 STREAM 4 Indoor Environment Objective: To deliver new knowledge in relation to: Indoor ecology and design of high performing physical indoor environments: understanding and modelling the complex inter-relationships of facades, lighting, thermal performance, acoustics, ventilation and air quality. Indoor environments, epidemiology and productivity: quantifying the linkages between indoor environment, health and productivity. Intelligent rooms: smart spaces that incorporate sensor technologies for a wide spectrum of operations, ranging from management of indoor environment to humancomputer interfacing and distributed collaborative working. 9
