Sustainable building design should consider durability, affordability, resource conservation, intra and intergenerational social equity aspects, and stakeholder’s perspective throughout its service life; this research has applied life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA) framework to estimate the sustainability performance in terms of a single score, and to identify avenues for sustainability improvement strategies of buildings.

This paper examines sustainable environmental solutions in domestic plumbing.

This report considers the research conducted previously on the current methods for sizing sanitary plumbing and drainage systems used within Australia and takes into account industry observations to propose improvements to these methods
