In resi<strong>de</strong>ntialenvir<strong>on</strong>ment the lift presence is totally necessary in or<strong>de</strong>r to accomplish with accessibility regulati<strong>on</strong>sfor disabled people. This means that not <strong>on</strong>ly the amount of worldwi<strong>de</strong> existing lifts but also thenumber of yearly manufactured units must be taken in c<strong>on</strong>si<strong>de</strong>rati<strong>on</strong>. On the other hand, the liftoperati<strong>on</strong> represents a substantial percentage of the energy c<strong>on</strong>sumpti<strong>on</strong> in a building. Neverthelessthe opportunities for increasing Energy Efficiency in lifts, especially in existing <strong>on</strong>es, are enormous.The European Uni<strong>on</strong> is currently ruling with focus <strong>on</strong> Eco<strong>de</strong>sign and Envir<strong>on</strong>mental Protecti<strong>on</strong> bymeans of the Directive 2009/125/EC, applied to energy-related products, that supports the introducti<strong>on</strong>of product Life Cycle Assessment to value their Ecological Profile. The applicati<strong>on</strong> of LCAmethodologies to the lift proves that the biggest Envir<strong>on</strong>mental Impact c<strong>on</strong>cerns to the use-phase. Thisfact points directly to the improvement of energy efficiency. In new installati<strong>on</strong> lifts this objective hasalready been achieved through exhaustive use of brand new tracti<strong>on</strong> technologies, new materials forfricti<strong>on</strong> reducti<strong>on</strong> and c<strong>on</strong>trol systems upgrading. However this is not the same for existing lifts wherethese improvements are being very slowly and partially introduced.This paper proposes a set of measures to un<strong>de</strong>rtake the Full Refurbishment of lifts in existing buildingswith the main aim of improving the whole energy efficiency of the building. These measures can beadopted in different progressive phases or stages:1. Selecti<strong>on</strong> and <strong>de</strong>velopment of the most efficient lift arrangement2. Use of new materials (high performance, recyclability, high strength-weight ratio)3. Applicati<strong>on</strong> of New Technologies (tracti<strong>on</strong> and lighting)4. Substantial reducti<strong>on</strong> of stand-by energy c<strong>on</strong>sumpti<strong>on</strong>5. Use of electric energy recovering systems in cases where lift motor works as generatorFinally <strong>on</strong>-site verified results of the respective energy savings are presented.37º <str<strong>on</strong>g>IAHS</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>World</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>gress</str<strong>on</strong>g> On <strong>Housing</strong> Science 163

Pulido 1 , MD; Gómez Hermoso J. 21University of San Pablo CEU (Madrid), 2 University Politécnica <strong>de</strong> Madrid1 e-mail: oliebana@ceu.es,Key words: in-situ c<strong>on</strong>crete, sustainability, flat slab, minimum reinforcing ratios, CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>AbstractIn the current office building c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> practice, flat plate is the most comm<strong>on</strong> floorstructural system due to its ec<strong>on</strong>omic and practical advantages. Traditi<strong>on</strong>ally, high materialcosts have had a great impact <strong>on</strong> total c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> cost, so voi<strong>de</strong>d opti<strong>on</strong>s as ribbed or waffleslab have been used extensively. However, recently there is a ten<strong>de</strong>ncy to <strong>de</strong>sign solid slabsopti<strong>on</strong>s, especially due to rising labor costs, simpler and quicker c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong>, which reducesexecuti<strong>on</strong> timeframe and increases c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> safety.The use of post-tensi<strong>on</strong>ed (PT) floors in building structures has been growing in recent years.This type of c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> allows thinner slabs and thus, it creates lighter structures, produces alarge reducti<strong>on</strong> in rebar t<strong>on</strong>nage, with the subsequent advantages in transportati<strong>on</strong>, storage orlabor. Also, these slabs have other advantages as reduced cracking and <strong>de</strong>flecti<strong>on</strong>s, reducedfloor to floor height or quick c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong>. In most countries these <strong>de</strong>sign mechanical an<strong>de</strong>c<strong>on</strong>omical features have enabled the system to compete ec<strong>on</strong>omically with traditi<strong>on</strong>al in-situc<strong>on</strong>crete floor slabs; however, this is not the case in some other countries like Spain.Introducti<strong>on</strong> of sustainability criteria and specializati<strong>on</strong> in c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> can allow for thissystem to be introduced in the market, which can also mean lower costs, improvedperformance and focusing <strong>on</strong> sustainability in c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong>.Different soluti<strong>on</strong>s have been studied for an actual project, in terms of material quantities,minimum structural thickness and it has also been checked the impact of costs an<strong>de</strong>nvir<strong>on</strong>mental criteria based <strong>on</strong> CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>. With these data, we could assess that thecurrent status of low producti<strong>on</strong> of flat slabs in Spain it is not related to real ec<strong>on</strong>omicreas<strong>on</strong>s; it is actually related to a combinati<strong>on</strong> of reas<strong>on</strong>s as lack of technical knowledge of<strong>de</strong>signers or buil<strong>de</strong>rs, inc<strong>on</strong>sistencies or <strong>de</strong>ficiencies in current nati<strong>on</strong>al co<strong>de</strong>s in each country.The c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> industry is following an inertial period that resists changing known systems,apparently satisfactory, and that especially shows an unsustainable view of the c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong>.Post-tensi<strong>on</strong>ed c<strong>on</strong>crete slabs will not always be the most suitable and sustainable opti<strong>on</strong>, butit should be evaluated while c<strong>on</strong>si<strong>de</strong>ring other more familiar techniques of c<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> withupdated c<strong>on</strong>si<strong>de</strong>rati<strong>on</strong>s.37º <str<strong>on</strong>g>IAHS</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>World</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>gress</str<strong>on</strong>g> On <strong>Housing</strong> Science 164
