Abstract

The eco-design approach was developed in the field of design and architecture in the second half of the twentieth century, with the aim of considering and reducing the environmental impact of products throughout their whole life cycle. The purpose of this study is to reveal how and the extent to which the carbon footprints of small houses that were designed with industrial construction techniques have been reduced during the production phase of the life cycle. For this purpose, the small houses and their materials were reconsidered to reduce their carbon footprints under the guidance of eco-design strategies according to the life cycle assessment method. The study focuses on 7 small houses, a reflective design process in which designs are reconsidered and the reconsidered small house designs in which carbon footprints are reduced as a result of the process within the scope of the Ecological Architecture course conducted by the Department of Architecture at Ataturk University. The CCaLC program was used in the study to calculate and compare the carbon footprints of the first small house designs and the small house designs reconsidered under the guidance of eco-design strategies. Small houses stand out due to their lower use of natural resources and low environmental impact at all stages of their life cycle. Using such houses as examples, this study reveals that the carbon footprints of buildings can be significantly reduced based on their materials by reflective design processes under the guidance of eco-design strategies.

在生态设计策略指导下基于建筑材料减少建筑碳足迹的研究

摘要

生态设计方法是在20世纪下半叶在设计和建筑领域开发的，目的是考虑并减少产品在其整个生命周期中对环境的影响。这项研究的目的是揭示在生命周期的生产阶段中，如何减少和减少使用工业建筑技术设计的小型房屋的碳足迹。为此，根据生命周期评估方法，在生态设计策略的指导下，重新考虑了小型房屋及其材料，以减少其碳足迹。这项研究主要针对7座小房子，在阿塔图尔克大学建筑学系举办的生态建筑课程范围内，通过反思性设计过程重新考虑设计，并重新考虑减少房屋碳足迹的过程。该研究使用CCaLC程序来计算和比较第一个小型房屋设计的碳足迹，以及在生态设计策略指导下重新考虑的小型房屋设计的碳足迹。小型房屋之所以脱颖而出，是因为它们在其生命周期的各个阶段都减少了对自然资源的利用，并且对环境的影响也很小。以此类房屋为例，本研究表明，在生态设计策略的指导下，通过反思性设计过程，可以根据建筑物的材料显着减少建筑物的碳足迹。
