ZERO 06 [ARCHIVE]

ZERO 06 [ARCHIVE]

Overview

This module explores:

  • A recap of the climate change challenge and the urgent need for improving the energy efficiency of buildings.
  • The current status of the built environment and its current contribution to carbon emissions.
  • What does a zero energy building look like, with a focus on energy consumption and targeting net zero energy.
  • Two case studies demonstrating the principles and how these targets have been achieved within Australia (“living building” challenge certified?).

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

    Design: Project Briefing
    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.
