TAILIEUCHUNG - Engineering a low carbon built environment

This report presents an overview of the field of building engineering physics and identifies opportunities for developments that will benefit society as a whole, as well as employers, universities, professional engineering institutions and in particular professionals who are following careers with building engineering physics as the basis. The report makes key recommendations for Government policy, academic and industry research directions and professional development in the field to achieve the skill levels necessary to deliver mass market low carbon buildings. This report for The Royal Academy of Engineering is a spin-off from an initiative by the Academy in association with The Ove Arup Foundation to raise the standards of education in. | The Royal Academy of Engineering Engineering a low carbon built environment The discipline of Building Engineering Physics The Royal Academy of Engineering Engineering a low carbon built environment The discipline of Building Engineering Physics The Royal Academy of Engineering ISBN 1-903496-51-9 January 2010 Published by The Royal Academy of Engineering 3 Carlton House Terrace London SW1Y 5DG Copies of this report are available online at Tel 020 7766 0600 Fax 020 7930 1549 Registered Charity Number 293074 Cover Illustration In order to reduce carbon emissions from energy use in buildings we must first understand the balance of energy demands. Energy associated with heating cooling lighting and ventilating commercial buildings typically accounts for two thirds of the carbon emissions. Building engineering physics is the science of optimising the physical characteristics of buildings and their systems to balance these energy demands exploit natural energy sources and minimise the reliance on artificial energy.
