inTable 5.3. Obstacles 3, 4 and 9 are excluded in this section because none of the respondents consider them as obstacles encountered in green building project management. Only the top five obstacles (1, 2, 6, 10, and 12) mentioned in the previous section are analyzed in detail here. ...
The stanchion is formed by tubes (2) kept apart by distance pieces (1). The tubes having lip tops (3) bent towards each other to act as a support for a roof section with incorporated guttering. The flat distance pieces each have a centre hole for bolting further sections together....

Green Roof and Walls Green roofs and walls represent a blend of aesthetics and functionality in green buildings. They not only improve the visual appeal of a building but also offer numerous environmental benefits. Let’s delve into the world of green roofs and walls and their role in sustain...
In a building, this could mean flexible pipes moving a heated fluid to where it is needed: in a roof-mounted solar collector for heating water, geothermal floor heating, or in the walls to retain heat. This use of capillaries is common to both animals and plants, but Imani sees plants ...
Climate warming disproportionately impacts countries in the Global South by increasing extreme heat exposure. However, geographic disparities in adaptation capacity are unclear. Here, we assess global inequality in green spaces, which urban residents cri
