lightweight composite paper honeycomb core wallboard as green building materials and low carbon product of modern life, its lightweight and energy saving, environmental protection, easy construction which other wallboards can't reach, but in actual use, the residents reflects its sound insulation performance is not very well, The lightweight composite paper honeycomb core wallboardand is composite with two rigid panel and paper honeycomb core which is in the middle of the wallboard. However, at present, people rarely Study on Sound Insulation Property of lightweight composite paper honeycomb core wallboard, so take the lightweight composite paper honeycomb core wallboard as the research object, through several sets of Different Specifications wallboard of experiment test,, the results showed that:The sound isolation property of calcium silicate panel is better than Gesso panel’s. The thick panel’s sound isolation property is better than the thin one. At the same thickness, the more layers of paper honeycomb core, the better sound isolation effect. Increase the layer number of paper honeycomb core has remarkable effect on sound isolation property.

As green building programs (GBPs) are introduced in Asian countries, the question of how GBPs evaluate the “greenness” of construction practice becomes one of the most critical uncertainties for the building material industry. To better understand construction professionals’ perception of greenness and the greenness of different building materials in Japan and China, surveys were conducted in both countries in 2009 and 2010. The surveys were designed to evaluate professionals’ perceptions of the relative importance of the major environmental attributes of resource efficiency. Chinese and Japanese professionals ranked the environmental attributes similarly even though their construction practices are very different. They perceive that saving energy and saving water are substantially more important environmental attributes than using renewable materials, having a low carbon footprint and using recycled materials. Second, the survey was designed to gain insights into the respondents’ perceptions of the relative environmental performance of the three major structural building materials (wood, concrete and steel). In both countries, construction professionals perceive lumber as having the best environmental performance relative to concrete and steel. However, Chinese and Japanese professionals have different perceptions of lumber in terms of its environmental friendliness. In Japan, energy efficiency of houses, the level of pollution generated during the manufacturing process, and CO2 emissions contribute to the evaluation of the environmental friendliness of lumber. In China, the sustainability of the resource is the main factor perceived as promoting the environmental friendliness of lumber.

Low carbon building is one of the important goals of constructing ecological city, which aims at energetically developing green building resources with high technology and low energy consumption on the basis of reducing carbon dioxide emissions within building materials and construction cycle. Firstly, this paper analyzes the connotation of low carbon buildings. And then, on the basis of life cycle and materials selection of low carbon building, this paper makes a correlation analysis on the ecological city construction and low carbon building. Next, based on this, the model of analyzing the effect of low carbon building on ecological urban construction has been built by using the grey correlation degree. Thus it provides theoretical basis and practice guidance for the application of low carbon building in the ecological city construction in China and other developing countries.

The choice of materials is crucial in responding to the increasing embodied carbon (EC) impacts of buildings. Building professionals involved in material selection for construction projects have a vital role to play in this regard. This paper aimed to explore the extent to which building professionals in Sri Lanka considered EC as a material selection criterion. A questionnaire survey was conducted among a sample of building professionals in Sri Lanka. The results indicated that the consideration of EC as a material selection criterion remained low among key professionals, such as architects, engineers, and sustainability managers, despite their reasonable influencing powers and knowledge of EC. Those respondents who had considered EC as a selection criterion said they had been primarily driven by green building rating systems and previous experience. Those respondents who had not considered EC during material selection commonly reported that they had been prevented from doing so by the lack of regulations and the lack of alternative low carbon materials. Respondents believed that the involvement of actors, such as the government, professional bodies, environmental organizations, activist groups, and the public, may be significant in promoting the greater consideration of EC during material selection.
