Industrial Building

This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of construction design and management, as presented by researchers and engineers at the International Conference Industrial and Civil Construction 2021, held in Belgorod, Russia, on January 18-19, 2021.

This book is based on several decades of authors’ research and practical experience in the areas of industrial and commercial buildings ventilation and energy efficiency as well as in process optimization in different types of industrial facilities. The Book discusses different types of air curtains used around the world and describes design, applications, pros and cons and examples for each type of air curtain. The book is illustrated with schematics of air curtains and pictures from their real-life implementation from around-the -world. To compare various design of air curtains, authors propose several indicators/efficiency criteria, which address effectiveness of air curtains, their energy and performance efficiency.
