Sustainable Development Principles into Building Design

Thomas Regan

The main aim of this research is to utilize the focus of sustainable design to compare the material and subsequent environmental impacts of multi‐story structures situated in Australia. The structure types under investigation were characterized by post‐tensioned and conventionally reinforced floor and roof flat plate slab systems [1]. The foundation designs are undertaken for isolated spread footings on 32 structural model types with constant external dimensions which were composed of floor and roof slabs of varying concrete strength, span length and construction method, with all footing designs providing equivalent structural performance.
