| description abstract | Recycled plastics (high-density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polypropylene) were used as coarse aggregates in concrete mixtures to alter and improve the thermal properties of buildings. Two similar retail buildings were designed and constructed in Lansing, Mich., one with normal concrete (control) and the other with high content of recycled mixed plastics. The thermal and energy performance of the two buildings were investigated and analyzed. Short-term (air tightness and infiltration, co-heating, lighting) and long-term monitoring were performed. The building simulation program | |
