1 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February Amal Hashem Canada House Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? no Use of Passive Solar Strategies East and west glazing bring natural light into the home. Use of Sustainable strategies Use of Technology SIP- structurally insulated panels containing Magnesium oxide that resist fire and mold. Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

2 Use of materials Cedar and red oak wood Photovoltaic strategy Solar panels with Micro-inverters What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? Market appeal and cultural desire What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? Energy balance Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

3 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February Amal Hashem C-H-I-P Home Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? yes Use of Passive Solar Strategies Southern opening allow for natural light Use of Sustainable strategies Exterior skin help insulate the house from energy loss. Use of Technology Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

4 Use of materials Recycled Vinyl Photovoltaic strategy Net-zero energy achieved using Photovoltaic panels What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

5 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February Your name here First Light- New Zealand Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? yes Use of Passive Solar Strategies Concrete Floor stores solar heat and releases it at night. Use of Sustainable strategies Skylights for natural light Renewable wool insulation with a thermal insulation three times greater than regular insulation. Use of Technology Evacuated Tubes solar hot water collector Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

6 Use of materials Cedar wood Sheep wool insulation Concrete Glass Photovoltaic strategy 6.3kilowatt solar array with 28 polycrystalline photovoltaic panels What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? I think their greatest strength is that you re able to monitor the energy use of the house. What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? I think that their greatest weakness is that they didn t utilize much of the solar radiation as well as they didn t utilize any of the plant and rain water. Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

7 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February AMAL HASHEM INhome Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? yes Use of Passive Solar Strategies Natural light and ventilation achieved through clerestory windows. Use of Sustainable strategies self-watering biowall filter contaminant from the air. Use of Technology An air-to-air heat pump for heating and cooling Heat pump water heater Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

8 Use of materials 41% post-consumer recycled content 100% recycled wood Photovoltaic strategy 9.0 kw solar photovoltaic system What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? I think their greatest achievement is providing a sustainable and an affordable home and how they were able to achieve by utilizing recycled materials. What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? Additional comments? I like how the houses maintain the original style of homes but integrate new sustainable designs features and technologies. Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

9 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February Your name here Self-Reliance Middlebury College Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? yes Use of Passive Solar Strategies Southern orientation to take advantage of sunlight Skylight for natural light and act as a fan to withdraw hot air out. Use of Sustainable strategies Use of Technology 20 Solar array panels Air-to-air heat exchanger Evacuated tube Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

10 Use of materials White oak, Sugar maple, triple glazed insulated window, Cellulose insulation Photovoltaic strategy 20 Solar array panels What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? The open public space and the indoor garden. What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

11 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February Your name here ENJOY-Team New Jersey Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? no Use of Passive Solar Strategies Clerestory for natural light Use of concrete as a solar mass that stores heat Use of Sustainable strategies Collection of rain water Use of natural light Use of Technology Evacuated solar thermal tubes Fiberglass-framed windows 9-kW photovoltaic system Energy recovery ventilators and dehumidifiers Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

12 Use of materials Insulated precast concrete Photovoltaic strategy 9-kW photovoltaic system What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? The Hand accessible bath and kitchen is one thing I want to take on What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? One weakness is that the layout of the house is fixed and that you can t arrange it based on the need. Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2

13 ARCH Your Name: Name of Project: Preference: Advanced Design and Building Information Modeling February AMAL HASHEM Tidewater Virginia Would you like to develop a BIM model of this project? Use of Passive Solar Strategies Floor to ceiling southern glazing for natural light Tiled floor that stores solar heat Use of Sustainable strategies reuse stored solar heat within sunspace tiles to heat the house through the winter. Use of Technology Remote controlled HVAC system with sensors Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 1

14 Use of materials MDO plywood rainscreen Photovoltaic strategy Solar panels and solar collector What strategy would you copy? What is the greatest strength? What is the greatest weakness of the entry? What would you avoid? Additional comments? Prof. King Spring 2013 Page 2
