Would you like to give a presentation at the Sustainable Built Environment Conference 2016 (SBE16)?
 
The Sustainable Built Environment (SBE) Conference 2016 Series is a significant global event focused on innovation in design, planning and management of high-performance built environments, as well as promoting education and collaboration in the field. The delivery of high-performance built environments aims to improve the environmental impact and public health of urban and building scale initiatives to achieve more sustainable, liveable, equitable and resilient cities. The conference is a full-paper peer reviewed international conference. Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings under an ISBN number and published by ELSEVIER Procedia Engineering.
