Façade Engineering Environmentally Sustainable Design
MEETS BUILDING CODES AND THE MINIMUM STANDARD OF CARE • Structurally sound • Fire-safe • Does not leak • Comfortable • Controlled Ventilation
DEFINITION OF A GREEN BUILDING A building that meets codes and saves ENERGY
Concept glass cube house to showcase furniture with extra clear glass by Santambrogiomilano
The biggest cost items in high-rise office buildings are typically SUPERSTRUCTURE,FACADESand MEP SERVICES
LIMIT THE GLAZING AREA TO 30 – 35% • USE HIGH PERFORMANCE GLASS
PROVIDE CORRECT VENTILATION • adopt ASHRAE Standard 62
architecture is the hidden polluter U.S. Energy Consumption by Sector. A reorganization of existing data - combining the energy required to run residential, commercial, and industrial buildings along with the embodied energy of industry-produced materials like carpet, tile, and hardware - exposes architecture as the hidden polluter Source : Architecture 2030
