This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the carbon footprint produced by the energy improvement of the building envelope, assumed as the technological component that most affects the over-all energy performance of the building, and that embedded in the materials of which it is assembled. The purpose of this research is to observe the relationship between the reduction of impacts due to the operational phase and the variation of impacts incorporated in the materials and components used to obtain these benefits, including the effects induced in the overall environmental performance of the entire process.
Lo studio si propone di valutare la relazione che intercorre tra l’impron- ta di carbonio prodotta dal miglioramento energetico dell’involucro edilizio, as- sunto come l’unità tecnologica che incide maggiormente nella definizione della performance energetica globale dell’edificio, e quella inglobata nei materiali che lo compongono. La finalità della ricerca è di osservare la relazione che intercorre tra la riduzione degli impatti dovuti alla fase operativa e la variazione degli impatti incorporati nei materiali e componenti impiegati per ottenere tali benefici, inclusi gli effetti indotti nella prestazione ambientale globale dell’intero processo

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the carbon footprint produced by the energy improvement of the building envelope, assumed as the technological component that most affects the over-all energy performance of the building, and that embedded in the materials of which it is assembled. The purpose of this research is to observe the relationship between the reduction of impacts due to the operational phase and the variation of impacts incorporated in the materials and components used to obtain these benefits, including the effects induced in the overall environmental performance of the entire process.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
