16 Interface : Partial solutions get in a tent (dry but poor acoustics)

17 Interface : Partial solutions light a campfire (warm but not protection against rain).

20 Fundamental difference bewteen environmental aids of the structural type and environmental aids of the power type

21 How does the idea of interface manifest itself in architecture?

22 Climate

23 Every climate has produced its own vernacular which provides a unique architectural interface to that that climate

26 Climate Cappadocia N, W

27 Climate very hot in summer during the day and cold at night. Strong sun and lots of dust.

32 Climate very hot in summer during the day and cold at night. Strong sun. Vernacular response

33 Climate very hot in summer during the day and cold at night. Strong sun and lots of dust. Vernacular response It s too hot during the day and cold at night > try and stabilise the internal temperature = DIG INTO THE GROUND PROFIT FROM THE MASSIVE THERMAL INERTIA

34 Climate Isfahan N E

41 Climate very hot in summer during the day and cold at night. Strong sun and lots of dust. Vernacular response It s too hot during the day and cold at night > try and stabilise the internal temperature = SHADE + USE THERMALLY MASSIVE MATERIALS The air is dusty and dry > Try and get rid of the dust, and cool the air = CONTAINMENT OF COOL AIR + EVAPORATIVE COOLING

42 Climate Sumatra S, E

43 Climate hot and humid, with intense sun

44 sketch 03

45

46 Climate hot and humid, with intense sun Vernacular response It s too hot > Try to minimise sources of heat = SOLAR CONTROL + INSULATION OF HIGHLY IRRADIATED SURFACES It s too humid > It really helps to have a breeze on your skin = MAXIMISE VENTILATION THROUGH PERMEABILITY OF FABRIC

47 vernacular architecture in cold climates

48 Climate OUTER HEBREDIES N 6 20 W

49 Climate mild temperatures, but very windy, lots of rain and not much sun

53

54 Climate mild temperatures, but very windy, with lots of rain and not much sun Vernacular response It s too cold > Try and preserve all the heat you have = REDUCE HEAT LOSS THROUGH DESIGN OF FORM AND FABRIC, + CONSIDER PREVAILING WIND Benefit from all heat sources > LAYOUT OF PLAN AND PROGRAMME

55 Can we say the same thing in terms of energy?

56

57 The flower pot lost heat energy because it was warmer than its surroundings

74 Climate mild temperatures, but very windy, with lots of rain and not much sun Vernacular response Analysis outside = 10ºC inside = 18ºC

75 Can we say the same thing in terms of energy? At a point where there is 8ºC temperature difference, the occupants of this lodge would need 3.5kW of energy to maintain comfortable temperatures.

77 Vernacular architecture does not go through fashion cycles. It is nearly immutable, indeed, unimprovable, since it serves its purpose to perfection. As a rule, the origin of indigenous building form and construction methods is lost in the distant past Rydifsky, B.

83 Dom-Ino House, Le Corbusier

84 Maison La Roche, Le Corbusier

85 La Cite de Refuge, Le Corbusier 1933

86 The core of Le Corbusier s design was the dormitory slab with a sheer glass curtain wall. Critical to the success of this southfacing glass wall was to have been a technologically ambitious system of double glazing and air conditioning ( respiration exacte ). These were never built as intended... La Cite de Refuge, Le Corbusier 1933

114 SITE PLAN _ 1:50 Looking at the solar radiation of my neighbourhood, I can make a conclusion that my bedroom,(under the roof, Is a warm place compare to the ground floor which is much more colder. WINDOW SURVEY - GROUND FLOOR

115 Window Construction Late Georgian 20mm single glazed windows LONDON Sunpath Sunlight on the window This is a single hung wood window. The frame encloses and holds the main parts of the window, sashes. Only the lower part of the window is movable and only in one direction,upwards

120 Exercise 1A Describe your home in London in terms of geometry and exposure to annual solar radiation. (i) 1:1250 site plan of your neighbourhood I usually purchase OS maps from here : I recommend you buy an OS Mastermap Vector (All CAD systems) 1.0 Hectare which will cost you (you will find your order under Order history ) The site plan should be overlaid with solar positions see attached file SUNPATH.dwg I would ask, in the view of privacy, that you do not disclose your addresses in the site plan / report. Example below : (ii) 3d model of your home and neighbourhood You will need to model your building and surrounding buildings. You do not need to go overboard with the detail, and don t worry about trees. See attached model Giles House.3ds. of my home and neighbourhood as a reference. Please model in Rhino. (iii) Analysis of irradiation on your building As mentioned in the lecture, solar gain is a significant factor in the energy balance of our buildings. The amount of energy that is incident on a surface is a function of which way it is oriented and what obstructions overshadow it. We can visualise this in a graphical way where red means most irradiated in a year, and blue means least irradiated in a year. See image below The tool I used to create images such as the image above is called DIVA. You will need to have Rhino 5 (64 bit version) on your computer, and down load a plug in called DIVA See the this link for a short tutorial on how to create this image your home : eature=youtu.be At the end of this tutorial, you should have a visualisation of a years worth of solar radiation on your building. You should visualise your building from all angles, and clearly mark which windows are yours. Can you establish the annual solar irradiation on your windows, relative to the maximum on any other surface in your model? How much less is it and why?
