Walls and Windows for Highly Insulated Buildings in the Pacific NorthwestRDH Building Science
Design objectives, Durability considerations and the Pros & Cons for using alternate highly insulated wall assemblies in the West Pacific Northwest. These include passive design strategies that require airtight and highly insulated walls with minimal thermal bridging to allow for energy efficiency, hygiene (mold/condensation) and thermal comfort. This is in response to a growing desire to apply passive house wall assemblies and windows for houses to taller and more exposed buildings including MURBs.
Also, the basic comparison of North American, European and Passivhaus Window rating standards and window selection guidelines. As windows from Europe are rated differently than in North America, passive house guidance from Germany uses European Standards and climate recommendations. The high performance windows provide high interior surface temperatures for thermal comfort and prevent condensation or surface mold growth. This forms an integral part of the strategy to achieve whole building energy targets (ie 4.75 kBtu/sf/y).

1.0. Introduction
The selected site is a 10m x 10m site situated towards the north-east of Taylor's University Lakeside
Campus. Located on next to the CODA gallery of the commercial and residential block of the campus,
the selected site is mostly bare and the floor is covered with concrete pavement. Surrounding the site
are some hedges, roads, walkways and the CODA gallery.
This 10m x 10m site is selected because it is not properly used and developed. Therefore, by
improving by this area, the landscape of the area will be improved dramatically.
4. 4
2.0. Site Analysis
The selected site which is located north of CODA gallery experiences many elements. The sun
orientation is from the east to the west of the site. During the noon, it is slightly towards the north of
the site. Hence, the 10m x 10m site is always exposed to sunlight during the day because there are no
surrounding tall buildings or trees that are able to block the sunlight.
The main problem which can be found around the selected site is a traffic congestion located in
between CODA gallery and Starbucks Cafe. This problem causes a massive problem to pedestrians as it
is tough to move about the area. The traffic congestion is due to a few problems:
I. It is a main walkway for pedestrians to move around the area
II. it is a main spot for pedestrians to gather in front and next to Starbucks Cafe
III. Stalls are setup along the main walkway
The site also experiences dusty air with smoke coming from the northeast and east of the site. The
dusty air is caused by moving vehicles and waiting/parked vehicles from the nearby roads which
surrounds the site and smoky air is caused by smokers that smoke around Starbucks Cafe. Hence, the
site experiences unhealthy air mostly from the east side of the site.
5. 5
3.0. Concept
The idea of this concept is to mainly solve the problem which exists around the site. This concept is to
provide a waiting area with benches as the students are able to wait around this area for their
transport during the evening. With this, the traffic congestion will be solved as the pedestrians'
walkways will not be blocked by those waiting around.
To solve the problems at site, the concept is to have a place with benches for people to wait, green
spaces to create a healthy landscape a provide better air, has a glass roof with vines growing on top of
it to block of some of the sunlight.
A radial series of benches surrounds a small garden in the middle of the radial benches. The area has
two entry points with a main pathway in the middle. The small garden in the middle provides a green
area to improve the landscape as well.
The glass roof is a continuous structure from the existing glass roof near the selected site. The top of it
is covered by vines but not covered densely as sunlight is needed by the plants underneath the roof. It
is also meant to be a
6. 6
On the outer wall of both sides of the free standing wall, two water features are installed to solve the
problem of dusty and smoky air. With it, water is able to reduce the amount of dust and smoke
particles in the air, creating a healthier environment within the site. Apart from that, the water
features are installed to reduce the temperature at the site as the site is constantly heated by the sun
during the day. With water features, water is able to reduce the temperature within the site, creating
a more comfortable place to be as it a waiting area.
7. 7
4.0. Master Plan
This area is intended to be a waiting area for those that are waiting for their transport or even as a
place where people can meet up. With a round garden surrounded by benches, the area creates a
small sense of enclosure and it improves the area from just being an empty area to green waiting area.
4.1. SoftScape
8. 8
Softscape is the living part of the landscape. Softscape refers to the elements of a landscape such as
plants, shrub, trees and flower. Due to design program of the landscaping, softscaping can be
experimented with implementing the subtlest of ideas of the landscaping area. Softscaping is trees
and shrub that lend their colour and character to brighten the pathway and driveway. Planning the
arrangement of the plants is to create reflect of sensibilities of the inhabitants and create character to
the landscape.
In the proposed site, there are a few types of softscapes such as evergreen shrubs, vines,
groundcovers and grass. They are the main things that allow a green space to exist within the site.
4.2. Hard Scape
Hardscape are the business of creating visionary urban space and being a source of creativity and
inspiration for landscape. Hardscape is refers to the built environment including paved area like streets
and sidewalk, structure, wall and also large structure where upper soil is no longer exposed to the air
but is covered in durable material. Hardscape can offer a part of their professional by advising the
cost, samples and ensuring each scheme complete the customer satisfaction.
In the proposed site, one of the main hardscape is the glass roof which provides shelter from rain and
sunlight. Thus a space is created where people are able to gather.

7.0. Construction Details
7.1. Construction Details of Water Feature
A simple water fountain wall can add beauty to an area. Additionally, many people are relaxed by the
sound of water, and they use water fountain walls to help them rest and meditate.
All water fountain walls have a few basic components. First, it requires a reservoir that can hold
enough water to make a beautiful waterfall. Also, a recirculating pump is required to pump the water
from the reservoir to the top of the wall. Another necessary component is a pipe or tube delivery
systemthat the water is pumped through, in addition to a head at the top of the wall. There are
several types of heads, including spray heads that shoot the water through holes in a pipe and free-
flow heads that simply let the water flow freely. Also, of course, the structure requires a wall or other
surface to create the desired effect.
15. 15
The reservoir must be adequately sized for the water wall unit and its pump. The reservoir must be at
least three times bigger than the minimum expected flow per minute. Reservoir length and width
should be at least twice the design drop unless measures are taken to contain and collect splash.
Factors requiring consideration include splash, wind, sunlight and noise.
16. 16
7.2. Construction Detail of Bench
Benches are places for pedestrians to rest after walking. The basic requirements are that the height of
the seat should be low enough for the person’s feet to be on the ground giving no pressure to the
thighs. Fixed benches must be able to withstand all climatic conditions and therefore must be made
much more durable than movable types which can be easily stored in a shed.
Benches should be approximately 425/450mm high. The height is limited so they will be comfortable
for the average person.
The basic materials are wood and metal. Wood is the most versatile of all materials – teak being the
most durable and weather resistant of all woods.
