Abstract: Outdoor tourism is a form of outdoor holiday that is growing rapidly today, and that stands out from other forms of tourism for its immediate relationship with the landscape which becomes for the tourist the main attraction of the holiday intended as a break from ordinary urban life. Outdoor tourism today represents a growing percentage in the tourism sector, in which mobile homes are the real players. Despite the considerable use of this product in open-air accommodations located in relevant landscapes, there is still no sensitivity in the constructive approach and in the choice of materials in terms of sustainability. In the open-air tourism sector, the lack of ecological sensitivity results from two levels of application: one regarding the whole settlement and the public spaces of outdoor accommodations and one regarding the mobile unit from the design to the production process. This paper will provide some practical strategies to introduce the ecological theme in the mobile home for the tourism sector. The research aims to analyze the production system of mobile Citation: Berizzi, C.; Nirta, S.; homes in order to introduce alternative materials within the existing assembly line. The research Terlicher, G.N.; Trabattoni, L. demonstrates the possibility of a product being sustainable both economically and environmentally, Sustainable and Affordable healthy, and well-integrated with landscape by adopting an approach that makes it possible to use Prefabricated Construction: the same assembly line currently in use.

Introduction The global impact of the entire construction sector today is estimated at around 30% [1]. Received: 17 June 2021 This impact is due not only to the energy and consumption cost of CO related to handling Accepted: 19 July 2021 2 Published: 25 July 2021 and transportation, but also to the enormous consumption of material, often not renewable. Furthermore, the construction industry is responsible for over 30% of global greenhouse gas Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral emissions (GHGE) and 36% of global waste production that can be quantified as 3.8 billion with regard to jurisdictional claims in per year [1]. published maps and institutional affil- It is not only the construction system that includes building is responsible for nega- iations. tively affecting the environment, but also the process of demolition which generates waste that cannot be reused. Nevertheless, the most used materials in construction are cement and concrete, which in terms of carbon dioxide emissions and depletion of fossil energy resources represent the worst materials [2].

Even the 2019 Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction promotes the reduction of demolition and the de- velopment of a circular economy in the building sector in order to reduce emissions that have increased from 2017 to 2018 [5]. The use of alternative materials, such as natural, recycled, and recyclable materials, represents the new frontier for the building sector to contribute significantly to sustain- ability. Using recycled and recyclable materials means selecting them according to their life cycle, preventing the exploitation of resources and reducing the production of waste generating a “closed circulation of components” [3]. Recycling and reusing strategies can avoid producing more energy for new buildings’ construction by earning energy from existing building materials [6]. In this way, waste material becomes a resource contributing to a good circular economy practice in which the concept is to work on the building sector such as nature does: using natural materials and recycling materials in a cyclic optic that does not know the meaning of waste [7]. The conscious use of materials in construction is also one of the prerogatives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which aims to make human settlements sustainable by guaranteeing sustainable production and consumption models, trying to protect and promote sustainable use of the terrestrial ecosystem. Using sustainable materials means using resources consciously, and positively affect- ing, as the report “Our Common Future” states, the world’s balance by providing natural environmental, economic, and social benefits [8]. Natural, recycled, and recyclable materials can all be considered eco-friendly even if they are of different origin and nature: naturals derive directly from raw materials which of course do not cause CO2 emissions and add to air pollution, consequently creating a healthy environment for humans; recycled materials derive from waste materials reducing them and can be natural or artificial; recyclable materials provide an opportunity for the future and can include natural or artificial materials that can be reused again in another process. One of the most spectacular forms of the present is tourism, which is a mirror of con- temporary society [9]. Sustainability in the field of tourism finds an immediate comparison with outdoor tourism where there is a strong relationship with nature and the surrounding landscape. However, the reflection on sustainability in this field needs to be analyzed on different levels including taking into account the sustainability value of the individual accommodation unit. The placement of accommodation facilities in particularly sensitive areas of the territory and of particular landscape interest requires greater sensitivity to sustainability issues both in terms of composition at an architectural level and in a technical key through the use of properly selected materials with respect to the environment. Thus, the need for improvement on a sustainable level does not only concern ordinary buildings today. The theme of outdoor tourism still has deep gaps and it needs more sensitivity in terms of ecology. In Italy alone, there are more than 2600 outdoor accommodations and that can accommodate together up to 1,000,000 tourists at the same time, considering that the arrivals in the outdoor accommodations have increased by about 15% since 2010 [10]. The number of tourists in Italy was more than 131,000,000 in 2019, of which more than 10,000,000 were arrivals in outdoor accommodations [9]. These numbers combined with a failed sustainability approach have a strong environmental and landscape impact. Within these structures, mobile homes represent the real actors of these contexts, being the most widespread typology, thus defining their landscape. The production of mobile homes operates independently of the context in which they are placed, creating environmental disconnections in which, at most, “façade operations” are activated which do not solve the environmental problem. Mobile homes are housing units on wheels for seasonal occupation produced on an industrial level and placed within the outdoor accommodation facilities. They have a usual dimension of 8 × 4 m, can accommodate up to six people, and consist of a kitchen-living room, bedrooms, and toilet and are usually connected to a veranda. They are designed to be easily transported usually by truck or by tow. The main characteristic of Sustainability 2021, 13, 8296 3 of 16 mobile home is that they do not need any permanent foundations, therefore they are easily removable. This last feature gives it a privileged position in the current European debate on the issue of land use. In fact, soil sealing is one of the main causes of soil degradation in the European Union, and to this end the European Commission is committed since 2011 to promoting a more sustainable use of land and soil, an objective made explicit with the “Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe”

But as we approach the question of re-using buildings very different issues and challenges come up when compared to other discussions about recycling. In contrast to the recycling of consumer goods, the built environment involves questions of planning, urban development, legislation and an unclear disaggregation of who are the customers, producers and end users. As such then there are very different ideas of responsibility involved. The majority of recycling debates typically focus on the present or recent past, but in buildings we are faced with the ideas, visions, politics and failures of previous years, decades or centuries. To ask the question about recycling buildings is thus a consideration of the possibilities and limitations of recycling the past, in all its material, concrete, earthy and immovable forms.

  • Natural Materials These Are Materials That Are ‘Naturally’ Found Around Us
    Natural Materials These are materials that are ‘naturally’ found around us. We may have to dig them out of the ground, grow them, or take them from living things. Wood It is used for burning, building houses, benches, fences and lots of other things. It isn’t chemically processed so it is natural. Wood comes from stems and roots of trees and other woody plants. Cotton Cotton is a soft, fluffy material that grows around the seed of the cotton plant. There are no chemical processes used to make cotton so it is a natural material. The cotton is spun into yarn to make a soft breathable fabric. Cotton is used to make clothes and furnishings. Gold Gold is a metal found as nuggets in rocks. It is not chemically processed so it is a natural material. Gold is melted down to make jewellery, gold teeth and used in industry. Gold is also used for investment. It is kept in bars which are worth lots of money. Iron Iron is a metal. There is lots and lots of iron on earth. It is found in the earth’s crust and core. It is not chemically processed therefore it is a natural material. It is used to make gates, buildings, tools, fireplaces, piping and many more. Leather Leather is a material created by the tanning of animal hide and skins. Usually from cattle. It is not chemically processed therefore it is a natural material. It is used for shoes, jackets, other clothing, upholstery and also used in industry. Sand Sand is made from ground up rock and mineral particles.

Among them, sustainable acoustic materials have helped to improve acoustical comfort in built environments, and their use is rapidly growing in the architecture, automotive, aerospace and construction industries. These materials are manufactured through a responsible interaction with the environment in order to avoid a depletion or degradation of the natural resources, and to allow for long-term environmental quality. This Special Issue reports on some research studies on membrane absorbers and fibrous materials of natural origin that can be sustainable alternatives to traditional acoustic materials. Keywords: sustainable materials; sound-absorption; natural fibers; acoustic materials; recycled and recyclable materials; membrane absorbers; nanofibers 1. Introduction Although the term is complex, and several definitions of ‘sustainability’ can be found in the literature, the report presented by the World Commission on Environment and Development to the United Nations General Assembly in 1987 stated that the use of resources and the development of technologies should “meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” [1].

(604) 682-5477 | Fax (604) 681-5305 | Website: www.MineralsEd.ca Introduction As you look around your home, it is important to think of the many things that you have and what are they made from. It’s simple - everything is made from Earth’s natural resources: rocks, soil, plants, animals, and water. They can be used in their natural state, or processed, refined and manufactured by people into other useable things. The resources that grow and can be replaced when they die or are harvested, like plants and animals, are called renewable resources. Those that cannot be regrown and replaced, like rocks, soil and water, are called non-renewable resources. All natural resources are valuable and we must use them conservatively. Mineral resources are natural Earth materials that must be mined from the ground. We use them every day, and they are non- renewable. Some are changed very little before they are used, like the rock granite for example, that is commonly used to make kitchen countertops or tombstones. Other mineral resources, like those that contain useful metals, must be processed to extract the metal ingredient. The metal is then manufactured into different parts of a product, like a toaster or a smartphone. Whether you are practicing violin in your room, eating a meal in the kitchen, watching TV in the living room or brushing your teeth in the bathroom, your daily activities use things that come from mineral resources.

In recent years, especially with the emergence of sustainable design as an international trend, more attention has been directed towards the social and economic part of sustainable design for a building to be truly sustainable and able of fitting in any context, for the long run. This thesis explores into the different dimensions of sustainable design, studying what makes a building sustainable, and using that as a base to define sustainable design in the region of Palestine, a small country in the northern part of the Middle East and east of Mediterranean, to define a framework of sustainable design. The framework achieved at the end of this study uses the vernacular as a passively sustainable prototype of sustainable design, for its environmental, socio cultural and economic complexity of a building, integrated with modern active techniques, that helped define the framework and helps define the future of the vernacular as a sustainable structure in different regions of the world.

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), limited oxygen index (LOI), and the Underwriters Laboratories (UL)-94 horizontal and vertical tests were carried out for evaluating the effectiveness of these FR treatments. Flat-coupon tensile test was performed to evaluate the effects of FR treatment on the mechanical properties of the FFRP composites. For both fire retardants, the results showed that the temperature of the thermal decomposition and the LOI values of the composites increased as the FR content increases. Under the UL-94 vertical test, the FFRP composites with 20% and 30% APP (i.e., by mass content of epoxy polymer matrix) were self-extinguished within 30 and 10 s following the removal of the flame without any burning drops, respectively.

  • Hemp 101 for Construction a Sustainable Finishing Material HELLO
    Hemp 101 for Construction A Sustainable Finishing Material HELLO, Welcome to Hemp 101 for Construction: An introduction to one of the oldest and "newest" building materials on earth. For professionals in construction who are new to hemp... This is not a technical guide, it's an overview of a high performance, versatile, and resilient natural material that's going to flood the market in the coming years. We'll take a short look back at hemp's history, dive into technical and functional uses, then look forward to how it can help us collectively move towards a more sustainable earth. Through the lens of your professions, you can view this material from many perspectives, recognize its limitations and potential, as well as evaluate both short term benefits and long term returns. I created this guide because the reemergence of hemp is recent, and so naturally, many people have never heard of the plant, or think hemp is Marijuana. Education on the facts and science is our path to breaking the stigma, and to adding one of the strongest fibers on earth to our toolbox. I invite you to explore it, and consider it on your next project. Hebah Saddique, PMP Founder, Green Takeover October 2020 1 GREEN TAKEOVER Born to bridge the worlds of climate action and industrial hemp, Green Takeover symbolizes the union of these two movements. Our mission is to inspire action using hemp as a catalyst for a green economy. Hemp fits directly into conversations of a circular economy, regenerative design thinking and materials for a closed loop.
