Dreams come true
It was our dream to create a magazine
that would be different from the best
traditional narrow-profile professional
magazines which would be interesting
to all of those who influence decision-
making process in construction indus-
try, all those who are involved in the
design, construction, operation, as well
as end using of the building. Finally we
are publishing our first issue which is
directed to an architect and an engi-
neer, an energy modeller and environ-
ment specialist, an investor and other
professionals responsible for the cre-
ation and development of the indus-
try of modern high-tech buildings. Only
in high-tech buildings there is a unify-
ing framework for all professionals of
modern construction industry.
The whole experience of the con-
struction industry of the twentieth
century suggested that the building it-
self is a fairly conservative industry,
poor in use of modern scientific and
technology discoveries. High technol-
ogy trend has forced necessity of de-
veloping modern construction indus-
try. High technology is a breakthrough
in the twenty-first century construc-
tion industry.
It is obvious that to master high tech
trends in construction profession-
als from market from different realms
should learn about the features and ben-
efits of high technology in construc-
tion. To discuss the trends profession-
als need to speak the same language and
understand each other, all participants
of the construction process. That is why
sion of the magazine is to attract atten-
tion and to explain the benefits of high
technology to improve the quality of life
and the environment. High technology is
a trend with such main priorities as en-
ergy efficient, smart, and environmental-
ly friendly and comfort solutions which
care for the future generations.
Today, the world’s as well as Russia’s
construction industry is experiencing
an interesting stage in its development,
which is focused in the use of high tech-
nology and alternative energy sourc-
es. To ensure the task to reduce ener-
gy consumption up to 40 % by 2020 can
be reached neither by increasing ther-
mal performance of the building enve-
lope nor by improving the conventional
air-conditioning systems. Greatest im-
pact in energy savings can only be only
achieved through a combination of ac-
tivities, option ranging of optimal archi-
tectural solutions with regards to the di-
rection of the energy impact of climate
on the building exterior, the use of al-
ternative energy, as well as the use of
high technology to manage all types of
building services. This idea sounds at all
levels but we all need examples of com-
pleted projects, procedures and regula-
tions that help professionals implement
these technologies in the construc-
tion industry of the XXI century. High-
tech and high ecological security trends
should be the hallmark of modern con-
struction industry. That is the main mis-
sion of the magazine.
High-tech is not a new architectural
trend in the global construction indus-
try, such as energy-efficient buildings,
zero-energy buildings or bio-architec-
ture. In each of these areas architec-
tural elements of high technology are
always presented. A number of green
building rating systems are developed
