  1. ALCOA: EAST HALLS RENOVATION EDSGN 100 Section 008 12/9/13 Eddie Taddei Daniel Guarracino Richard Hayward Nicholas Kappeler Brianna Haglan

  2. Table of Contents • The Opportunity • Background Information • Conditions & Objectives • Collective Creative Ideas • Evaluation • Analysis • Prototype • Conclusion

  3. ALCOA The company… The product… Infinitely recyclable Hall-Heroult Process • Leading producer of aluminum • Largest miner of bauxite • Largest refiner of alumina • Involved in multiple markets • *Properties of Aluminum • Light weight • Corrosion resistance • Conductivity • Reflectivity • Recyclability

  4. Why are we here today? • Penn State & Sustainability • Identify campus opportunities • Examine inputs & outputs • Take advantage of aluminum’s intrinsic properties • Increase efficiency or sustainability • Opportunity: to increase sustainability by using aluminum and taking advantage of the upcoming east halls renovation

  5. East Halls • Built over 60 years ago in the 1950s • Comprised of 15 buildings, ranging in size,layout, and energy usage • Last year’s East Halls energy usage data shows that all fifteen halls used a total of 5.1 million kWh of energy, with an average energy per building of 339,836 kWh • Hastings Hall (average building assumption) • A look at a recent energy consumption will give us an estimation as to how much energy our solution will need to save over the course of its lifetime

  6. The opportunity at hand… • Customer Needs • Students • Not enough natural lighting in dorms • North and south facing • OPP • Increase sustainability • Increase attractiveness of living area • Decrease energy consumption • Implement student ideas • Alcoa • Expand market and advertise products • “Mine” ideas

  7. Who does this project affect? • Stakeholders • Alcoa • Penn State OPP • Students/RAs • Construction contractors • Legal Departments • Researchers • Environmental groups • Waste Management • Local Centre County residents • Local businesses

  8. Project Guidelines • Efficiency/ Sustainability • Must use less energy than previous solutions • >60.8 kilowatt-hours • Marketability • Feasible implementation within 5 years • Cost-Effective • Cost of design < cost of electricity saved from design • Safety • Must meet OPP safety codes

  13. Brainstorm Ideas Option 1 Option 2 Option 3

  14. Brainstorm Ideas Option 4 Option 5 Option 6 Imagine...aluminum

  15. Brainstorm Ideas Option 7 Option 8 Similar to option 6 with filtration system

  16. Evaluate Ideas Table 2. Concept Screening

  17. Evaluate Ideas Table 3. Concept Scoring

  18. Analysis • The light reflectors were chosen due to their feasible implementation. • Their simplistic design makes them durable and sustainable • They had the highest rate of return on the investment • Light reflector maintenance is easy to learn • Design can be retrofitted to fit different sized areas • Available in depths up to a maximum projection of 30 inches (762mm) and a maximum span of 72 inches (1828mm) • LEEDs certified in three categories • Materials & Resources-Recycled Content • Energy & Atmosphere – Optimize Energy • Performance and Indoor Environmental Quality – Daylight and Views

  25. Design Solution • Energy efficient design • Implementation meets OPP deadlines for East Halls Renovations • Meets OPP safety Codes • LEEDs certification accredits sustainability of product • $14,000 to retrofit 1 building (140 rooms at $100 each) • Over 50 years: • $1.5 million spent at 9 cents kw-h (1 building average) • 6.1 ft width for avg. window (saves $10 per foot) • $427k saved over 50 years • Break-even point after 5 years
