Development of Clay Tile Coatings for Steep-Sloped Cool Roofs
Most of the pitched roofs of existing buildings in Europe are covered by non-white roofing products, e.g., clay tiles. Typical, cost effective, cool roof solutions are not applicable to these buildings due to important constraints deriving from: (i) the owners of homes with roofs visible from the ground level; (ii) the regulation about the preservation of the historic architecture and the minim...
متن کاملThermal-energy analysis of roof cool clay tiles for application in historic buildings and cities
More than 90% of historic buildings have traditional clay tiles as roof covering exposed to solar radiation, largely impacting buildings’ thermal-energy performance and urban climate, since most of historic buildings are located in dense urban contexts. In this view, the optimization of these traditional elements could represent a key research issue, with the purpose of building energy retrofit...

متن کاملThe effect of roofing material on the quality of harvested rainwater.
Due to decreases in the availability and quality of traditional water resources, harvested rainwater is increasingly used for potable and non-potable purposes. In this study, we examined the effect of conventional roofing materials (i.e., asphalt fiberglass shingle, Galvalume(®) metal, and concrete tile) and alternative roofing materials (i.e., cool and green) on the quality of harvested rainwa...
متن کاملEvaluation of cool roof and vegetations in mitigating urban heat island in a tropical city, Singapore
A numerical study with a weather research and forecasting (WRF) model at 300-m resolution shows that Singapore’s canopy-layer UHI intensity has a strong diurnal cycle, peaking in early morning and keeping almost constant during late night and early morning. The modeled ensemble peak UHI intensity is 2.2 C and it can reach 2.4 C during early morning in the intensive industrial region in west Sin...
