Investigation of the Compliance of Architectural Principles of Sustainable Architecture in the Traditional Context of Tabriz: A Case Study of Tabriz Municipality Hall. Kazemi E., Darskhan R., Kazemian P. J. Civil Eng. Urban., 5(3): 116-122, 2015; pii:S225204301500020-5 Abstract Paying attention to human life and the preservation of its present and future, using materials in the manufacture or use or even destruction that are homogeneous and stable with their environment, minimum use of fuel energy and maximum utilization of natural energies, minimal environmental degradation, improving physical and mental lives of humans and all living things in a healthy environment is a priority for the use of the vernacular architecture can be observed clearly. This paper examines the applicability of the principles of sustainable architecture in the traditional context of an architectural monument (Case Study: Tabriz Municipality Hall). In this study library method was used to check the contents. The results showed that this architecture is often consistent with sustainable architecture. Local buildings are considered dynamic, because they supply their needs with respect to energy on their site and they are compatible with the site and its climate.

Ecological Design Process, the Way Toward Improve Modern Sustainable Architectural Design. Feizi M., Ahmadi J., Ahmadi M. J. Civil Eng. Urban., 5(2): 77-82, 2015; pii:S225204301500014-5 Abstract Nowadays the main question of designers is about the consequences of their activities on the natural environment that how should be designed the built environment which not to destroy nature. Due to energy and environmental crisis conditions of present age, it is essential that instead of imitating the techniques of sustainable architecture, to be dealt with a more radical and looked for answer not in the design itself but in the point of view to that. The reason of existing architecture instability Can be connected to the lack of designer’s sufficient knowledge of the current situation, inability to categorize and organize their vast architectural information and field of design with the principles of sustainability. The problem could be related to deficiency of a specific design process and lock of holistic and sustainable design approach by the designers. The appropriate design in educational or in commercial architecture requires accurate and systematic process from beginning to the end. The main question of this research that is a logical argument with qualitative- interpretation approach using by library is how could specify the path of the design and promote the theoretical foundation step by step in order to develop suitable architecture. The main assumption in this research is how the design principles is more accurate and predetermined consequently the results is more desirable. Such principles could be found in ecological design. The objective of this work is the present a procedure of modern sustainable architectural design with the title of ecological design which has been introduced by Malaysian architecture Ken-Yeang. Based on the mentioned method, the process of design was presented in form of a table to make the designer to be capable to the accurate and classified design.

Architecture Building Sustainability Regarding Smart Materials Original Article, D69 Malekizadeh B, Nili HR, and Piri S. J. Civil Eng. Urban. 4(4): 461-466. 2014 ABSTRACT: In contrast with the arrival of machine and abundant industrial production that leads to reduction of energy resources supply, the world around us is looking for modern systems to be able to not only improve technologies for welfare of human, but to conserve nature and restore resource. As an important branch of modern architecture dealing with adverse effects of technological progress and industrialization, sustainable architecture offers strategies to reduce demanding building industry on natural environment and conveyed modern buildings compatible with nature. What is important to have these buildings, is to reuse technology in smart studding and new material that can improve ecologic behavior of building in smart management; that is, using materials that can adapt itself with environmental changes in the best way. By reducing energy resources it is necessary to use the materials that lead to reduction of energy consumption in buildings. In this paper, first consistent architecture conceptions and materials in Iran are discussed and then with introduction of smart materials, there will be some solutions in order to achieve the goals of constant architecture by using these materials.

The Influence of Material Properties and the Geometrical Parameters of the Operating Arch on the Stability of Vaults Original Article, D31 Valibeig N, Esmaeili M, Ansar A Journal. Civil Eng. Urban. 4(2): 199-205. 2014 ABSTRACT: One of the key elements in architecture is vault. Because timbers are locally available only in certain parts of Iran, the vaults used to be built in various arched forms especially in traditional buildings. Identifying the structural characteristics of such vaults may reveal the innovative approaches adopted by the Persian architects who tried to design and build the vaults in based on a sustainable architecture; a kind of architecture that was, from one hand, adaptable to climate, location and local materials, and capable, from the other hand, to meet the users' needs. The materials used in and the geometric characteristics of the arches are two determining factors in vault stability. The major part of the past research has focused on examining the strength of the arches statically. The present study, however, aimed to analyze the impact of materials and geometric characteristics on the vault resistance. To this end, the behavior of geometric arches in different forms and sizes along with various materials were studied. The identified generate arches were drawn by design soft wares and then analyzed by resistance analyzers. The results clearly revealed the effective role of geometric parameters, materials and thickness of arch base in vault stability.

Essay on Characteristics of the Quadruplet Elements and Strategic Analysis of the Performance of It in Traditional and Modern Architecture Original Article, D22 Alimoradi M., Mohebikia A. Journal. Civil Eng. Urban. 4(2): 137-142. 2014 ABSTRACT: Our ancestors were attention to nature and to preserve the purity and sanctity of it. This is particularly has been true in the four main elements (water, wind, soil, fire) that commonly referred to as material prima. The way that culture and literature is also very expressed. This is also evident in their architecture and the build. That can lead to environment from architecture and design of building. The importance of the issue to be determined by that time, that we face with the lake of energy resources and environmental pollution with the progress of technology, industrialization and increased fossil fuel use. The idea of Strategic analysis in this article to what methods can help to resume the relationship of man and nature elements. In line with the aim, with the Swot method we will examine the strength, weaknesses, opportunities, threats about employing the above elements and the approach the maximum exploitation of the dominant element in any area or in other words ecology.

Optimization of Energy Consumption in Buildings with Architectural Design Compatible with Environment and Climate Original Article, C58 Karkeh Abadi Z and Mesgarian H. Journal. Civil Eng. Urban. 3(6):392-397. 2013 ABSTRACT:Extremely valuable fossil fuels and huge national investment in the recovery of fuel costs highlight the need to improve the structure and patterns, energy efficiency necessary to use. Damaging effects of fossil fuels on the environment and the nature have created risks in the lives of citizens, especially in today's metropolises. Thus, considering the use of native and adaptive knowledge in today architecture is crucial. Therefore, the present paper aims to investigate the environmental and climate effects on sustainable construction and constrains with the environments in hot and dry regions and its effect on optimization of energy consumption in the green architecture compatible with nature in city Damghan. Accordingly, besides use of library resources, required information was collected through field and descriptive –analytical methods in order to different aspects of climate effects on architecture and building in the studied region were considered. The obtained result indicate that traditional architecture consistent with Damghan climate, is totally in accordance with sustainable architecture principles and besides saving energy consumption, has a complete compatibility with the environment.
