This book explores energy consumption and thermal comfort in the social housing sector in the Eastern Mediterranean basin.

This book presents a novel methodological framework for the optimisation of post-war social housing developments in the Eastern Mediterranean climate. The authors draw on semi-structured interviews to present evidence on in situ thermal sensation and provide the results of walk-through and walk-in thermographic surveys to highlight building-fabric performance and highlight anomalies in the building envelopes. The authors go on to show how this data-informed retrofit design solution can be applied to reduce household energy consumption, increase awareness of domestic energy use and inform effective policymaking decisions in energy use in the Eastern Mediterranean basin, including the development of Energy Performance Certificate schemes.

This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy policy, energy efficiency and planning. It will also assist architects, building engineers and other practitioners in closing the gap between the current understanding and the actual performance of existing residential building stocks in the Eastern Mediterranean basin.

Über Autor(innen)

Bertug Ozarisoy is an architect and expert in building energy modelling both in the UK and Cyprus. His research focuses on understanding the theory between architecture and energy-policy design in conjunction with exploring the impact of passive-cooling systems on domestic energy use and households’ thermal comfort. Dr Ozarisoy has an intensive 10 years’ experience in teaching, research and architectural practice. He was initially involved in the BSc (Hons) in Construction Management programme at the University of East London (UEL) between September 2016–2018. He has developed teaching skills to demonstrate significant intellectual input to the students’ technical drawings and monitor their learning adaptability and integration to the ‘Construction Technology and Materials’ module. He authored over 35 journals and conference papers relevant to the building engineering field and assisted with research projects in the Sustainable Development of the Built Environment (SDBE) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Europe. Dr. Ozarisoy is a Lecturer in Technology in the School of Built Environment and Architecture, in London South Bank University (LSBU). He is a co-author of the book ‘Transgressive Design Strategies for Utopian Cities: Theories, Methodologies and Cases in Architecture and Urbanism which has been published in Routledge Research in Architecture series by Taylor & Francis. Currently, he continues his research on the development of neutral adaptive thermal comfort benchmarking to contribute to the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Global Thermal Comfort Database II with the team of international experts in thermal comfort studies.

Hasim Altan is Professor of Sustainable Design and Architectural Engineering in the College of Architecture and Design (COAD) at Prince Mohammad bin Fahd University (PMU), Khobar, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. He is a Chartered Architect (RIBA) and a Chartered Engineer (CIBSE) with over 20 years of academic and practice experience in the field of Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) in the Built Environment in the UK, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regions. Prof. Dr Altan sits on a number of editorial boards and reviews project proposals for the European Commission, UK Research Councils and Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF) by the Qatar Foundation. Since 2004, he has, singly or jointly, secured and directed 32 research grants worth over £21 million. He is a founding member of the International Network on Zero Energy Mass Custom Home (ZEMCH), which has so far organised nine international conferences, several design workshops and numerous technical visits. As well as having supervised 17 successful PhD theses (11 as first supervisor) and over 80 Masters dissertations (MSc, MArch and MEng), he has published over 300-refereed international journal and conference papers, technical reports, edited/authored books and chapters, and editorials in related fields.
