SIA D 0167 Planning and<br />

Short description<br />

The SIA 112/1 provides guidance that enables principal and<br />

planner to communicate possible tasks and objectives in<br />

sustainable building. It covers social, economic and ecological<br />

aspects of sustainability in building through defined criteria and<br />

objectives. Propositions and recommendations for the choice of<br />

appropriate construction materials are made:<br />

- Use of available primary resources and a maximum use of<br />

secondary (reused or recycled) resources<br />

- Use of materials with low embodied energy and low<br />

environmental impacts<br />

- Avoiding materials which emit harmful substances<br />

- Use of assemblies, techniques and devices that facilitate<br />

easy separation for reuse or recycling<br />

(Translation taken out of [CIB 2008])<br />

This is a tool for assessing a project during an architecture<br />

competition. It is a systematic approach aimed at facilitating an<br />

impartial assessment of a project’s fulfilment of environmental<br />

objectives. The evaluation criteria cover important aspects like<br />

resource demand and embodied energy in construction and<br />

flexibility for later refurbishment. (Translation taken out of<br />

[CIB 2008])<br />

This is a compilation of Swiss and other instruments concerning<br />

ecological construction engineering. A big part of the standard<br />

consists out of case studies. The planner shall be supported in<br />

the choice of appropriate instruments. The disadvantage of this<br />

documentation is its age.<br />

This is a clear guide for basics, decisions and education for<br />

sustainable house building. With the help of a criteria catalogue,<br />

buildings can be checked on their sustainability by principals<br />

and planners. Equal strengths are put on the three pillars<br />

economy, ecology and society.<br />

This standard covers important aspects on the following points:<br />

- Residential estate, surrounding, traffic<br />

- Energy, water, air<br />

- Construction materials<br />

- Domestic engineering<br />

- Economy<br />

This documentation shall contribute to an integral view on a<br />

buildings energy use. The calculation method is standardised so<br />

that everybody will use the same data basis in order to ensure<br />

comparability. As second point, the documentation wants to<br />

make planners aware of the issue of grey energy.<br />

This documentation shows in which phase of construction<br />
