SUSTAINABLE HOUSING 2016 – International Conference on Sustainable Housing Planning, Management and Usability

Scope SUSTAINABLE HOUSING 2016 – International Conference on Sustainable Housing Planning, Management and Usability is an initiative of Green Lines Institute for Sustainable Development that aimed to go further on the discussion of the sustainable improvement of housing design and construction, including the user point of view. Currently, the issue of housing is shown as a major challenge within the latest Sustainable Development concept brought by the Post-2015 Development Agenda, which is based on 17 objectives called as Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Among the many goals that were settled, objectives 1 (No poverty), 3 (Good health), 6 (Clean water and sanitation), 7 (Renewable energy), 9 (Innovation and infrastructure), 10 (Reduced inequalities), 11 (Sustainable cities and communities), 12 (Responsible consumption), 13 (Climate action) and 17 (Partnerships for the goals) are of particular relevance to rethink how to build our homes, as well as establishing more participatory processes for communities. These objectives include economic, social, cultural and environmental issues that cross the participation of various actors as promoters, technicians and users. In this context, thinking sustainable housing lists a large group of heterogeneous matters and approaches involving: - The occupation of the territory so the cities will continue to expand due to population growth; - The management of public investment in social housing, including both the refurbishment and upgrading of existing units; - The means of financing and costs of housing units, promoting affordable housing solutions; - The promotion of equity and social inclusiveness, including the right to housing, as well as the appreciation of neighborhood conditions; - The consideration of cultural phenomena related to traditional ways of living and housing typologies; - The efficiency of the design and construction of housing units, promoting the proper management of the used resources, the assessment of embodied energy indicators and embodied carbon, the spatial adaptability and the management of the life cycle of buildings; - Operational efficiency of housing, with emphasis on energy and water efficiency; - Improvement of health, hygiene and safety in the use of housing, including indoor air quality (e.g. presence of volatile organic compounds and radon), quality of water supply, wastewater treatment, and the conditions of thermal, acoustic and visual comfort.

Keynote Speaker

PROF. MANUELA ALMEIDA Manuela Almeida is Associate Professor at the Civil Engineering Department of the University of Minho, Portugal, and coordinates the research group on Sustainable Construction. Her main research fields are Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Development. Prof. Manuela Almeida coordinates and participates on several national and international research projects on buildings thermal behavior, nZEB, conservation and rehabilitation of buildings and sustainable construction.

KEYNOTE SPEECH “Relevance of the embodied energy on building retrofit assessment” Many regulations and initiatives to promote the reduction of the energy consumption and carbon emissions have been implemented in the building sector. However, they are mostly targeted to new buildings. In order to have an effective impact and reach the goals that are being established, it is necessary to act in new but especially in the existing buildings, which correspond to the majority of the European building stock. Building renovation improves the buildings’ energy performance, reducing the carbon emissions related to the operation of the building but the renovation involves adding new materials and technical systems. The production process of these new materials uses energy (embodied energy) and releases carbon emissions. In this sense, after a certain level of energy efficiency, the materials added to the building may have more embodied energy than the energy savings they will lead to. To evaluate the relevance of the embodied energy in building renovation, a methodological framework developed under the IEA EBC project Annex 56 to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of building renovation solutions which include a life-cycle impact assessment is presented. Using a particular case study, different renovation solutions, with and without considering the embodied energy, are compared. The results show that the embodied energy do not have a major impact on the evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of the renovation solutions, but as the renovation approach gets closer to zero energy level, its relevance increases.

Social Programme Visit to Port wine cellars: “Caves Ramos Pinto”

Founded by Adriano Ramos Pinto in 1880, Casa Ramos Pinto rapidly became noted, at the time, for its innovative and enterprising strategy. Associated with quality bottled wines, it began operating on the Brazilian market in the early 20th century and quickly became responsible for half of the wine exported to South America, whilst it was still conquering generations of loyal customers in Portugal and Europe. These were the natural results of a forward thinking strategy, based on the modernisation of selection, batching and ageing circuits, the continuous wine research and the special care which Adriano Ramos Pinto devoted to the packaging and promotion of his wines. The Ramos Pinto wines have therefore become a reference of quality. From the very onset was born a unique collection of art objects, which are displayed today in the recently opened Museum Area - Casa Ramos Pinto.

SUSTAINABLE HOUSING 2016 – International Conference on Sustainable Housing Planning, Management and Usability

The taste for culture instilled by Adriano Ramos Pinto in the working philosophy of Casa Ramos Pinto, is still alive today. In 1997, Casa Ramos Pinto created the Ervamoira On-Site Museum, aimed at environmental, oenological, archaeological and anthropological research of the Vale do Côa. Researchers also have at their disposal the Historical Archives in Vila Nova de Gaia, with a precious collection of documents on the production and export of wines from the late 19th century. Aware that the quality of its wines were confined to the earth of the wine producing Douro, Casa Ramos Pinto meticulously studied this Demarcated Region, and eventually became the owners of a number of estates with very special characteristics. The objective was to ensure the control and quality of the whole production process. By perfecting its wines, Ramos Pinto created unique nectars with its own signature.

Social Dinner: Oporto Cricket & Lawn Tennis Club

The Oporto Cricket and Lawn Tennis Club was originally formed in 1855, the grounds at that time being situated at Candal in Vila Nova de Gaia. The land in Campo Alegre where the Club now stands was acquired in 1923. Meanwhile the Oporto British Club, a town club established in 1909 was flourishing in splendid premises in the centre of the city. In 1967 rationality prevailed and the two clubs amalgamated, the proceeds from the sale of the premises of the Oporto British Club being used to finance the new clubhouse offering a wider range of facilities. Since that time there have been a number of additions and improvements to cater for the needs of an increasing membership, of local, overseas and country members. Although the club is predominantly British, membership also extends to many Portuguese and non-British nationals. Location: Rua do Campo Alegre, 532, 4150-170 Porto Dress code: jacket and tie
