A I N A B E REFURBISHMENT
L
- Working on existing buildings in ordernto improve their environmen-
tal performance using sustainable methods, materials and application DEFINITION

1. PHYSICAL CONDITION OF BUILDING


CONSIDERING FACTORS SUCH AS:
2. ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF BUILDING
3. IMPACT OF THE BUILDING TO THE COMMUNITY

CHALLENGES IN BUILDING REFURBISHMENTS

1. MINIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ( EG : THE REFURBISHMENT WORKS WILL NOT CAUSE ANY HAZ-
ARDS OR DANGEROUS TO THE ENVIRONMENT SUCH AS SOUND
2. CONSERVE THE HERITAGE BUILDING
3. PROVIDE MORE SAFE & SECURE
4. ABLE TO PRODUCE SPACES THAT ARE ADAPTABLE FOR THE CHANGE OF USE ( EG : REFURBISHMENT
OF HOUSE IN ORDER TO CHANGE IN USE FOR KINDERGARTEN )
5. CONTRIBUTE TO REGENERATING LOCAL COMMUNITIES
6. SHOWS BEST VALUE THOUGH PROCUREMENT & PARTNERING

BENEFITS OF SUSTAINABLE REFURBISHMENTS


PRESERVATION OF ABLE TO ADAPT LOWER RUNNING MARK OF QUALITY REDUCED ENVIRON-
BUILT HERITAGE WITH CLIMATES COST MENTAL FOOTPRINTS

RELATIONSHIP GANISATIONS THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTA-
BETWEEN SUSTAINABLE TION OF SUSTAINABLE POLICIES, WHICH INCLUDES THE STRATEGY
INTO ACTION AND DEMONSTRABLE EVIDENCE THROUGH PROGRESS
DEVELOPMENT & BUILDING

PROCESS OF SUSTAINABLE REFURBISHMENTS

PRE PROJECT Regarding how the project can be achieve successfully and the target .

PRE DESIGN Include site analysis, programming, construction cost analysis, and value engineering.

DESIGN Including how the building will be refurbish. Also involving sketches, diagram & chart.

CONSTRUCTION Contractor need to play it roles here by using quality materials to construct the builidng

OPERATION The stage where the buildings can be used or stay by the tenants.
SUSTAINABILITY IMPACTS AFFECTING BUILDING REFURBISHMENT BASED
ON CATAGEORY :

MANAGEMENT
- Review the role, and challenge the record, of the principal contractor and key parties of the project team

EMMISIONS TO AIR
- Use low emission of finishes, construction materials, carpets and furnishing

WORKFORCE OCCUPANTS
- Involves the people in giving their ideas and making decisions

LOCAL ENVIRONMENT & COMMUNITY


- Contribution will improve safety & provide opportunities for people become more healthy

LIFE CYCLE OF BUILDING OR PRODUCTS


- Eg : related to a building , this includes its design , construction , operation , and disposal .

ENERGY MANAGEMENT
- Use renewable energy ( wind turbines & solar panel ) instead of non-renewable energy .

EMISSIONS TO WATER
- Upgrade key areas of water use

USE OF RESOURCES
- Increase the use of renewable energy & recycled material.

WASTE MANAGEMENT
- Reduce waste of all kind and manage the waste in good ways . Prevent throwing it into the river and burning it.

EXAMPLE OF SUSTAINABILITY CONSTRUCTION

GREEN ROOF GLAZE OR DOUBLE PANED WINDOW

- Roof that covered by plants / vegetation - Good insulation from heat outside building

RECYCLED BUILDING MATERIALS ALTERNATIVE ENEGRGY

- Reduce pollution to environment - The use of solar panels reduce the uses of energy needed

LIGHT COLOURED FOR EXTERIOR WALLS LIGHT COLORED ROOF


- Reduce the absorbtion of heats compared to dark coloured - Good insulation of heat
