Criterion 1 summary PASS kg.co /m /yr As-designed Part L documentation is required by Building Control to confirm that the proposed design meets the requirements of Approved Document Part L prior to construction. Upon building completion or the first fit-out, the Part L calculation must be revised to represent the as-built and as-installed specification. Please refer to the appendix of this report for details of the as-built evidence requirements... Criterion Limits on Design Flexibility Design limits are outlined within Approved Document Part La and Non-domestic Building Services Compliance Guide. The appended BRUKL document outlines the building performance against each of the respective design limits. No parameters exceed the recommended design limits;.3. Criterion 3 Limiting the Effects of Solar Gain in Summer The cumulative solar gain for all applicable zones has been calculated and compared against the recommended limits. The appended BRUKL document outlines all results. All applicable zones comply with the requirements of Criterion STROMA Stroma Tech, Unit 6, Silkwood Business Park, Fryers Way, Wakefield, WF5 9TJ 4

5 .4. EPC Asset Rating A preliminary EPC has been produced at this stage based upon the details outlined within this report. Metric Asset Rating 34 Band Table. EPC result Result B Upon practical completion, a final EPC must be produced representing the as-built and as-installed specification and lodged onto the central Landmark register. EPCs must be generated within the most recently Government approved software version irrespective of the version used for the Part L compliance assessment. Therefore, Stroma Technology cannot be held responsible for any variations within the EPC rating as a result of specification, software or, regulatory changes. 17 STROMA Stroma Tech, Unit 6, Silkwood Business Park, Fryers Way, Wakefield, WF5 9TJ 5

6 3. Building Regulations Summary Part La: 1 (England & Wales) Approved Document Part La: 1 came into force on 1 st October, superseding the former Part La: 6. The 1 Part L largely follows the same methodology as before with a number of key changes intended to reduce energy consumption and promote a more holistic design approach. This assessment considers the first 3 of 5 criteria, the key objectives of which are unchanged. Criterion 1 achieving the BER Compliance is demonstrated where the Building Emission Rate (BER) is less than the Target Emission Rate (TER). Carbon Dioxide emissions of the building are calculated using Government approved software encompassing the Architectural form, fabric and building services specifications. Unlike 6, the TER is derived directly from the Notional building enabling a direct comparison between a compliant and the actual specification. Criterion limits on design flexibility In order to guide the building specification towards higher levels of energy efficiency and in recognition of technical development, the minimum performance limits for building services have been improved. These are all set out within the 1 Non-Domestic Building Services Compliance Guide. Backstop or, limiting U-values for building fabric and air permeability remain largely unchanged from 6. Criterion 3 limiting the effects of solar gain in summer Criterion 3 now considers the cumulative solar gain only, for all occupied or mechanically cooled spaces. The objective is to steer design towards a reduction for the need or, the installed capacity of air conditioning systems. In order to demonstrate compliance, the solar gain aggregated over the period April to September must not exceed a limit derived for a room of the same size with a pre-defined area of glazing and glass specification. The respective solar gain limit is dependent upon whether the room type is considered top lit or side lit. This development has been assessed by trained and accredited Energy Assessors using Government approved compliance software by Integrated Environmental Solutions (IES). This report details the basis of modelling and a summary of the results, including the BRUKL document included as an appendix. Energy Performance Certificates must always be generated using the most up to date software version, in accordance with European legislation. Therefore, Stroma Technology cannot be held responsible for any change in result owning to building specification, legislative or software revisions. 17 STROMA Stroma Tech, Unit 6, Silkwood Business Park, Fryers Way, Wakefield, WF5 9TJ 6
