Chew, M Y L; Conejos, S and Law, J S L (2017) Green maintainability design criteria for nanostructured titanium dioxide (TiO2) façade coatings. International Journal of Building Pathology and Adaptation, 35(2), pp. 139-158.

Abstract

This paper establishes a list of green maintainability design criteria to help minimise future nanostructured TiO2 facade coating issues showing that TiO2 coatings help improve facade performance whilst offering environmental benefits to society.

Descriptive scope: 3 PCE

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
