This book provides a methodology for assessing structural building details in accordance with contemporary guidelines for earthquake-resistant and energy-efficient buildings. It highlights the importance of collaboration among architects, engineers, contractors, and investors in the early stage of building design to ensure optimal decision-making and selection of structural details. Over 20 examples of frequent details are described and analyzed to raise awareness of earthquake resistance, sustainability, energy-efficiency, and thermal comfort for users.

This open-access book offers a comprehensive methodology for evaluating structural building details, considering the latest guidelines for earthquake-resistant and energy-efficient buildings. A thorough review of structural elements for energy-efficient structures revealed that in certain instances, the structural system is disrupted, resulting in solutions that may not be suitable for earthquake-prone regions. Typical examples include the use of thermal insulation beneath the building foundation and the reduction of load-bearing element dimensions, particularly at the potential locations of plastic hinges, which are essential for dissipating seismic energy. The proposed assessment methodology fosters collaboration among architects, engineers, contractors, and investors at the early stages of building design. By doing so, the methodology enables efficient decision-making and contributes to selecting the optimal building structural details. The book begins by presenting the typical structural details of energy-efficient buildings' thermal envelopes, along with the scientific background necessary to understand the process of detail development from various relevant aspects. Over 20 examples of the most frequent details are described and analyzed to raise awareness of the importance of earthquake resistance, sustainability, energy efficiency, and thermal comfort for users.
