Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis delves into the exploration of sustainable design techniques in high-rise residential buildings, aiming to address the increasing importance of sustainability in the architecture field. High-rise residential buildings are prominent features of urban landscapes, and their design significantly impacts environmental, social, and economic aspects. The study focuses on integrating sustainable practices into the design process to enhance the overall performance and longevity of high-rise residential structures. The research begins with a comprehensive introduction that provides a background of the study, outlines the problem statement, states the objectives, discusses the limitations and scope of the study, emphasizes the significance of the research, and presents the structure of the thesis. Chapter Two consists of a detailed literature review that examines existing sustainable design techniques in high-rise residential buildings, covering aspects such as energy efficiency, material selection, passive design strategies, green technologies, and building certifications. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology employed in this study, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. The methodology section aims to provide a clear framework for conducting the research effectively and ensuring the reliability and validity of the findings. It includes content on case studies, interviews with industry experts, surveys, and simulations to gather relevant data on sustainable design practices in high-rise residential buildings. Chapter Four presents an in-depth discussion of the research findings, analyzing the effectiveness and feasibility of various sustainable design techniques in high-rise residential buildings. The discussion section delves into key themes such as energy performance, indoor environmental quality, water conservation, waste management, and occupant satisfaction. It explores the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing sustainable design strategies in high-rise residential projects, offering insights into best practices and innovative solutions. Finally, Chapter Five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, highlighting the significance of the research, and presenting recommendations for future studies and practical applications. The conclusion reflects on the impact of sustainable design techniques on high-rise residential buildings, emphasizing the need for continued research and collaboration to promote sustainable architecture practices in urban environments. Overall, this thesis contributes valuable insights to the field of architecture by advocating for sustainable design principles in high-rise residential development, paving the way for a more environmentally conscious and resilient built environment.
