How do I convince my clients?

How expensive is it to go green ?

Many skills and the desire is here

How do we get mass market focus?

Built Form

Built Form• Does the floor plan suit the use of daylighting and natural

ventilation?

• Can courtyards or atriums be used to increase natural light /ventilation?

• How does the built form affect services design?

• Can it be used to exploit prevailing site condit ions?

• Can the thermal mass of structural systems be used beneficially?

• Are green roofs viable?

Envelope• Is the building to be sealed tight or is the envelope to

breathe?

• What glazed area is desired: full height, strip or punched?How does this affect mechanical and electrical services?

• Is external shading suitable? Should this be fixed or

adjustable?• What is the whole-of-life cost of the façade system?

• What are comfort and daylight implications of different

facade options?• Does the building fabric meet or exceed code requirements

Conclusion


64/67

Design for the climate – STOP using energy to compensate for

lack of climate responsive design

Create positive visions – create and understand the value of

building green

New ways of thinking – think beyond the boundary of building

design

Collaborate with clients – leave the client knowing more

What’s needed?


65/67

Common goals for the industry – common reporting and benchmarks

Clear government direction & strong policy - we can’t rely on theindustry alone if we are to influence all buildings

Technology & skills exist for cost effective solutions

Time to complete design & focus on operation

Evaluation of buildings actual performance – The long term focus

needs to be on the results

How can we help ?


66/67

• Quantify and evaluate the design options

• Guide our clients towards cost effective solutions

• Identify the cost effective solutions specific to the climate and

building type

• Introduce the whole building design approach to building

services by designing the building to be energy efficient.

• Challenge the standard approach to engineering design.
