A BIM-simulated annealing approach to optimize cost, size, and environmental impact of building water networks - Scientific Reports

|
By Pedro Cortez-Lara, Benjamin Sanchez, Héctor Barrios-Piña
| Nature Verified
Abstract Research aimed at mitigating the environmental impact (EI) of the building industry has been the subject of numerous studies. However, existing literature has primarily focused on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of building materials, with limited attention to building-level water networks (WN) and the link between pipe sizing and EI. Traditional sizing methods aim to minimize costs, but the extent to which optimal sizing influences EI remains underexplored.

Abstract : Groundwater is the main source of drinking water supply in most urban environments around the world. The content of potentially toxic elements is increasing in many groundwater systems owing to inadequate groundwater recharge, aquifer overexploitation, natural source release, or various anthropogenic activities that lead to groundwater quality degradation. The ingestion of groundwater contaminated with potentially toxic elements has been reported to have harmful health effects.
