Membrana divisória adaptável

Publicado em "Ciclo de wokshops fibrenamics 2012 : livro de atas", ISBN 978-989-98468-2-1 ; O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar as potencialidades das soluções de paredes divisórias interiores em membrana, nomeadamente em termos de flexibilidade de uso e adaptabilidade. A redução de peso nos elementos construtivos permite uma economia significativa de recursos materiais e energéticos, constituindo resposta re...

(Archi)textiles partitions : design specifications for reuse after deconstruction

The use of membranes in the interior of buildings, particularly on their wide application possibilities as lightweight and innovative partitions systems, is not a major architectural concern. But membranes can contribute to different types of space partitioning in: housing, offices, hospitals, sports facilities, etc., in other words, in all occasions where spatial flexibility and reversibility are essential. Th...

Textile membrane design : case-study of a membrane house prototype in Portugal

The increasing speed in which technology is developing, as well as the social and economical changes are quickly turning buildings constructive systems and building design methodologies obsolete. The research on faster, cheaper and environmentally more respectfull building technologies are growing concerns in buildings design. These are some of the advantages of textile membranes. In a few millimeters membrane ...

Textile membranes in housing – adaptation to tropical climates

Acknowledgements : the authors wish to thank FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia – Portugal) and COMPETE (Programa Operacional de Fatores de Competitividade - Portugal) for supporting the ADjustMEMBRANE project with the reference PTDC/AUR-AQI/102321/2008. ; Construction industry is responsible for great environmental impacts in the world, some authors refer that these can be as high as 50% of the global ...

Potentialities of interior textile membrane partition walls

The research of new architectural textile membrane materials allows extending its possibilities to interior partitions in order to fulfil contemporary demands of comfort. This paper pretends to present the state of the art of textile membranes application in interior partition walls and the potentialities of Polymers and natural fibres used in these building elements

Life-cycle assessment of lightweight textile membrane partition walls

This paper analyze the environmental, functional and economical performances of some conceptual lightweights textiles membranes partitions walls and to compare one of them with two technologies present in Portuguese market: i) the heavyweight conventional hollow brick partition wall; and ii) the lightweight reference plasterboard partition wall. Advantages of use textile/ fibrous/ membrane based materials in pa...

Lightweight dividing walls : adaptation to temperate climates

This paper intends to prove that it is possible to use lightweight membranes on interior partition walls and on external façades, even in housing buildings at temperate climate regions, if their properties are well explored. The few material used, even less than conventional lightweight solutions - the most common is plasterboard with light steel frame structure - allow a lower specific embodied energy and othe...

Lightweight membranes with fibre materials in interior dividing walls

Characterization of porous acoustic materials applied to lightweight partition ...

The increased need to save material and energetic resources, allied with a growing concern on the environmental issues and incertitude on the evolution of the economy, has impelled minimalist-approaches to Architecture and Engineering, reducing to the minimum necessary expression the building elements. The development of new lightweight materials, most of them composites with fibrous reinforcement systems, has ...
