Overview

Net zero carbon requires an understanding of the relationship of energy demand, the options for energy supply and how these will change over time. This lecture will discuss how building design can affect energy demand in different ways in different climactic zones. It will discuss how the energy supply solutions chosen might be different in different locations and for different building typologies, including:

  • Hospitals, airports and similar 24/7 critical processes
  • Campuses
  • Mixed-use precincts
  • Commercial office
  • Hotel/residential

The lecture will discuss the economics of carbon offsetting and how the changing carbon intensity of grid power might affect the design decisions we make today.

CPD

This presentation is equivalent to 1 hour/point of formal CPD and will deliver outcomes related to the following Competencies from the National Standard of Competency for Architects:

    DESIGN / DOCUMENTATION
    1.2 Establishment, analysis and evaluation of client project requirements and objectives.
    1.4 Identification of factors that may impact on client project requirements and objectives.Design: Pre-Design
    2.6 Preparation and analysis of project development options in response to project brief.Design: Conceptual Design
    3.3 Design response incorporates assessment of the physical location and relevant wider regional, contextual and environmental issues. 
    3.4 Design response incorporates assessment of relevant legislation, codes and industry standards.
    3.6 Assessment of the economic impact on the project of design strategies and options.
    3.7 Assessment and integration of construction systems and materials consistent with project brief. 
    4.2 Evaluation of design options against values of physical, environmental and cultural contexts.
    4.4 Inclusion of expertise relevant to specialists and consultants in developing the project design.
    4.6 Investigation and integration of appropriate material selection for the project design.
    4.7 Coordination and integration of appropriate environmental systems, including for thermal comfort, lighting and acoustics
    5.5 Integration of materials and components based upon an understanding of their physical properties.

STEPHEN LOGAN

GLOBAL CAPABILITY LEADER FOR MECHANICAL SERVICES AURECON

Stephen is the global Capability Leader for Mechanical Services at Aurecon and is also one of the firm's 8 Design Directors. Aurecon is a diverse consulting engineering practice with some 5500 employees worldwide. He has designed significant projects in the UK, Middle East, Asia and Australia. Highlights have been the multi-award winning Manchester Civil justice Centre, Wembley Stadium and Brookfield Place in Perth. He has recently led the design for the Tower at Dubai Creek Harbour, which will be the tallest structure in the world when complete. He designed the first 5 star Green Star building in WA (235 St Georges Terrace) and the unique mechanical system for Sunshine Coast University Hospital, which was the first ever 6 star Green Star hospital. He was named among Australia's most innovative engineers in 2017 by IEAust for his work on SCUH. 

 

Speaker

ROSS DONALDSON


Ross Donaldson was CEO and Chairman of Woods Bagot from 2006-2016, leading the practice to its dramatic growth internationally to become the world’s 6th largest practice in 2014 and in 2016 the 7th “Most Admired” firm (WA100), judged by its international peers. He is a champion of the imperative for sustainable development and has presented numerous lectures internationally on sustainable models for cities and their liveability. In 2008 he established a partnership with Buro Happold to develop software for designing for zero emissions. Prior to joining Woods Bagot in 2001 he had his own small practice and taught at UWA.

 

Learning Outcomes

At the end of this presentation you should be able to:

  1. Consider the interaction of building design with the choices made for energy supply to the building
  2. Determine how building design in one climactic zone or another might fundamentally alter how you approach the energy solution to it
  3. Differentiate the balance of grid, storage and renewable supply between different projects based on their climactic zone
  4. Connect appropriate design principles to climatic zone of a project
