Construction/renovation of these runways to keep them active for flying in all seasons is a major challenge especially during prolong heavy rainy seasons, floods, scarcity/non-availability of construction materials, skilled man power, etc. Apart from these problems, the other challenges faced are ...
and implemented energy efficiency measures. The results indicate that second homes are occupied for extended periods during the summer season and intermittently throughout the year. Over half of the second homes are heated even when unoccupied, with 12% maintaining a temperature above 16 °C. The ...

Large windows on the southern facade are a local tradition in this region, which ensures sunlight availability and increases solar heat gains in winter. Even if changing window size has a significant effect on heat demands, using the same window areas in a renovation project would be easier ...
As the world’s third-largest oil and natural gas producer, Iran consumed enormous amounts of non-renewable energy during the last twenty years. There are many obsolete buildings in the Iranian building stock, which required energy renovation. Many studies in the literature proposed energy retrofitt...
