ESD: Summer- Passive Cooling

Summer 12:00pm
The eaves running along the north facade provide shade for the internal spaces while the timber louvers allow for natural ventilation and passive cooling.

ESD: Winter- Passive Heating

Winter 12:00pm
The north facade receives maximum winter sun for passive heating. The thermal mass walls also provide adequate heating for the cooler months.

Materials- Construction Process

The process for the construction of the admin building is exposed aggregate concrete flooring, with timber lvl beams making up the 'ribs', recycled timber batterns make up the secondary structure followed by zinc roof sheeting for the roof cladding system

Wall Section

The building is broken up into sectional 'ribs' that form a radiating curve around the northern facade. the wall consists of recycled concrete bricks that provide thermal mass to the internal spaces. low e glass is used and recycled timber louvers provide natural ventilation to the building while the eaves provide shading for the summer months. zinc sheeting is used for the roof.

Building form

\

The building will be north facing to receive the maximum amount of sunlight through the winter months. lvl beam ribs will divide the building up into sections and im thinking timber batterns and zinc sheet or colorbond will be used for the roof cladding system.
