ABSTRACT
Recently, the architectural thought interested in high performance buildings to reduce the phenomenonof sick buildings,
consuming all resources, depletion energy, and global warming.Hence, theresearchimportance of alternatives about traditional
building materials that adverseeffecton the environmentand users, these alternatives raisesbuildings efficiencyin Egypt.
The papersfollowthe methodology of theoretical, analytical and deductive through five chapters, the first oneincludesevaluation
criteria formaterials and buildings in international organizations such as the (LEED, BREEAM. etc.), discuss
respondingfactors whichreducing energy consumption and embodied energy.The second chapter explained smart
materialsconcept in past, present and future, bystudying the life cycle of materials and its development. The third chapter
analyzed various types of these materials, such as (Thermo-Bimetal, Hemp Fiber, Mycelium, Bioluminescence), to clarify their
conformity withstandard criteria mentionedin the first chapter, and their impact on reducing both types of energy and the
amount of carbon dioxide. To carry out the objectives of this study, a questionnaire was designed to collect data in chapter four.
The questionnaire showed the opinion of specialists in this field, Data has been analyzed using "Statistical package for social
Science" (SPSS) software.Last chapter analyzed international and local case study, such as (The Gate, Enel Pavilion, The
Technical Faculty, Decorative Facade Removes Air Pollution), this chapter also comparesamong thesecases in terms of
materials and their impact in raising the efficiency of buildings.Results, finally this paperfocused on some materials, such as
(Titanium Dioxide TiO2, Smart Bamboo, Hemp Fiber, Mycelium, Aerogels), as a Second Skinin building facades reducing
(temperature, humidity in buildings, the dust and harmful emissions). The paper recommends that H.P.B design process in
Egypt required teamwork for any project includes several scientificdisciplines, also Egypt must constructspecial laboratory for
producing high-efficiency materials, also being careful when dealing with nanotechnology, because the small molecules may
seep to the skin of humans and kill.

1. INTRODUCTION
The paper presents an idea on using smart materials in raising the efficiency of buildings if used properly can make a
revolution in Egypt.
Everything except nature is based on a material, by choosing the right material, Smart materials will allow designs to
interact better with the human senses, and this type of materials is closer to nature and less forced than many of the
materials we are experiencing today. By merging both smart materials and architecture, it will be the answer for
technological needs, using smart materials in architecture moreover dramatically reduce the energy and CO2, enables
the human to design of direct and discrete environments that providing better conditions in space for human occupants.
1.1 Problem Statement
Using materials in buildings Responsible for Increase the required energy in each of the (energy consumption in the
building) (embodied energy in materials). The previous researchers in the field of smart materials focused on applying
it to reduce energy in buildings. A few researches mentioned life cycle energy in materials and how can we control of
the effective factors in Building materials to reduce energy and CO2 and reach for a long life and high performance
building.
In fact, Egyptian, there was an absence of applied research, despite previous research efforts on aspects of the advanced
research and innovative technologies, including smart materials methodology for the evaluation and analysis of
performance appraisal.

the running costs.

2. HIGH PERFORMANCE BUILDING AND ENERGY


This chapter focuses on defining High performance buildings, materials used in it and what characteristics make a
Building high Performance, involves consideration of Environmental and health issues in addition to more traditional
criteria such as cost, durability, Performance and aesthetics, paper Compare Measurement Systems of (HPB) To
access the most important criteria in materials building and the highest efficiency in buildings then find the
relationship between them, The paper will also focus on the energy used both in building and materials and how can
we reduce it.
2.1Definition of Building Performance
Sustainability Committee definite Building performance as a sustainable building with better environmental, economic,
and socio-cultural features and performance, It should be aesthetically attractive, safe, healthy, and comfortable,
building systems (HVAC, lighting, cost, etc.) as well as operations and maintenance (O&M) and should operate with a
high level of life cycle environments, resource, and economically efficient, (HPB) is also referred to as an energy
saving or green building.ACEEE [1]

2.2 Measurement System of Performance Building
Many countries have developed their own standards of energy efficiency for buildings; Next table shows some examples
of building Environmental assessment (BEA) tools currently in use:[2]

2.3 Energy
Buildings are the main contributors to the degradation of the natural environment, buildings account for 2040 percent
of industrialized countries total energy utilization. Juan, Y.K. [3]
2.3.1 Embodied Energy of Building Material
The embodied energy of a material represents the energy expended in its production, such as the energy for extraction
of the raw material, and energy used in transportation and manufacturing.

3. MATERIALS RESOURCES
Natural resources are usually defined as renewable or non-renewable, the first are resources that can be renewed or
harvested regularly, such as timber for construction or linseed for linseed oil, They are only renewable as long as the
right conditions for production are maintained, depletion of the ozone layer is an example of how condition for many
renewable resources can be drastically changed
Non renewable resources are those that can only be harvested once these are often referred to as 'stocks' (iron ore is an
example); or else resources that are formed extremely slowly,such as crude oil.Bjorn. [4]
3.1 Life Cycle Materials
The building industry is,after food production, the largest consumer of raw materials in the world today .This is most
important for the scarce non-renewable resources, but also for the others; partly because it is the throughput of
materials in the economy that is linked to major energy and environmental loads.Bjorn. [5]

3.4 Definition of Smart


The terms smart, functional, multifunctional and intelligent are often used interchangeably. This is reasonable, if
confusing, for the first three terms, but the last almost certainly suggests a degree of consciousness that does not exist in
any non-biological system.Carlton[8]
Table 3: Smart are Classified in Three Groups (RESEARCHER)
Non- Smart

Dont have any special characteristic

Semi-Smart

Able to change their form in response to environment effect, for once or


short time

Smart

These changes will be repeatable and reversible, known as "flexible" and


"adaptive", and this is due to their particular feature in adjusting to
environmental conditions

3.5 Smart Materials Classification


Smart materials and systems are divided into two classes. D. Michelle [9]

Figure6 Smart Materials Classification (Researcher)

Type 1

Type 2

Materials undergo changes in one or more


of their properties (chemical, electrical,
magnetic, mechanical, or thermal) in direct
response to a change in external stimuli in
the surrounding environment.

Smart material transforms energy from


one form to another. The energy input to
a material changes the energy state of the
material composition, but does not alter
the material, it stays the same, but the
energy undergoes a change.

4. QUESTIONER
4.1. Method of Data Collection
This study used a questionnaire to accomplish the aim of this research. The questionnaire should be designed to help
the researcher to analyze data quickly and accurately. Close-ended questions and Likert scale can strongly achieve
thatgoal. In Likert questions, the respondent will be asked to express his agreement or disagreement, according to a
scale as shown in the following table no. (6).

The questionnaire consists of three main parts. Section (A) included information about the respondent company like
experience, classification, the number of employees and number of projects implemented by the company in the last
five years.
Section (B) included criteria for evaluating the HPB.
Section (C) included factors that affecton materials in HPB and measure the Awareness degree foe Egyptian engineers.
4.2 Pilot Test
The purpose of the pilot test was to make sure that the respondent understands the questionnaire and to find out the
shortcomings and ambiguities. The questionnaire was translated into Arabic to help the respondent to understand it.
Ten specialists were asked to fulfill the questionnaire and to add any other factors that may high rise the efficiency
building or materials from their point of view. The questionnaire was reliable as the respondent answers don't include
indecisiveness responses.
4.3 Research Sample
The research sample has represented the opinion of the companies working in the building (Integrated) field. Great
care was taken in choosing the sample to ensure that it represents the actual population. According to the Egyptian
Federation of Construction and Building Contractors, the numbers of construction companies working in the building
(Integrated) field are as shown in the following table (7).

Table 8Sample Size(Researcher)

For accurate results companies from fifth, sixth, and seventh class were excluded because these companies have less
experience and efficiency. This study focused on companies classified as first, second, third and fourth.
In previous studies, the researchers faced a problem when many companies refused to fulfill the questionnaire. Some
companies don't trust that these data will be used for research purpose only. They fear that these data could be used to
impose taxes or something else. This result due to the lack of confidence for many years with the governmental
authorities. In this study, the same problem had been forced; out of 195 questioners, only 70 responded.
4.4 Data Analysis
After collecting data, the answers to the questionnaire were coded to enable them to be computer processed. The
questionnaire is analyzed using statistical package for social science (SPSS). This program provides important data
such as mean, median, mode and other statistical methods which are suitable in achieving the objectives of the study.

6.4 Recommendations
The paper recommends that H.P.B design process in Egypt required a teamwork for any project includes several
Scientific disciplines, also Egypt must construct special laboratory for producing high-efficiency materials, also
being careful when dealing with nanotechnology, because the small molecules may seep to the skin of humans and
kill.
Increasing the focus on applying technical researchers and solutions for reducing energy consumption and embodied
energy.
Increasing the awareness of the scientific solutions to the students and designers to be up to date with the
architectural techniques.
Establishment of an embodied energy and energy consumption management system for buildings where there area
large number of occupants is recommended. So that, there will be personnel responsible for managing the lighting
systems.
Establishment of motivational institutions such as the reducing taxes for any building lower carbon emissions.
Study the cost of building high performance for long terms.
Establishing a specialized laboratory for smart materials.
Using day lighting techniques in buildings is recommended due to the high use of energy for artificial lighting in
these types of buildings that accounts as much as 40 to 50 % of the energy consumption.
Make sufficient awareness for the importance of the use of non-renewable resources of energy from the early stages
in the educational society together with the actual practice, in order to grow the early minds towards this trend to
coop with the world directions.
