Thermal bridging can greatly impact the thermal performance of building envelopes. This presentation discusses research from ASHRAE RP-1365 that quantified thermal bridging in common construction details using 3D modeling. It found that accounting for thermal bridges can decrease a wall's effective R-value by over 30%. The presentation also showed that improving details like slab edges and balcony connections through methods like insulation and thermal breaks provided significant energy savings compared to simply adding clear wall insulation. Overall, the research demonstrates the importance of considering thermal bridging when assessing building envelope performance and codes.
The document provides energy usage and portfolio information for the Prescott Service Center building.

The document discusses India's Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC). It aims to set minimum energy efficiency standards for building design and construction. The ECBC encourages energy efficient practices that do not compromise occupant comfort or economic considerations. It provides the central and state governments powers to enforce compliance. The ECBC is estimated to reduce building energy use by 25-40% through requirements for the building envelope, lighting, HVAC, and other systems. Widespread adoption could yield annual national energy savings of over 1.7 billion kWh. Implementation faces barriers around first costs, product availability, and testing/certification.
Life Cycle Analysis and Optimization of a Steel Building George Be
The document describes a study that uses life cycle cost analysis and optimization to determine the most cost-effective design for a steel building in Chania, Crete. It analyzes variables like insulation levels, window areas and coatings, HVAC systems, and structural components. The optimization considers three scenarios over 10 and 30 year periods. The results found that double glazed windows, appropriately sized windows on orientations, and an A-class HVAC system provided the lowest overall costs while meeting energy codes. Floor insulation had less impact than walls and roof. The study provides a framework for optimizing building designs and subsystems to minimize life cycle costs.

12. Walls Defined
metal building wall: a wall whose structure consists of
metal spanning members supported by steel structural
members (i.e., does not include spandrel glass or metal
panels in curtain wall systems).
mass wall: a wall with an HC exceeding (1) 7 Btu/ft2·°F
or (2) 5 Btu/ft2·°F, provided that the wall has a material
unit weight not greater than 120 lb/ft3.
steel-framed wall: a wall with a cavity (insulated
or otherwise) whose exterior surfaces are separated by
steel framing members (i.e., typical steel stud walls and
curtain wall systems).
wood-framed and other walls: all other wall
types, including wood stud walls.
15. Fenestration Assemblies
• Assembly is a weighted factor between
• Center of Glass
• Edge of Glass
• Frame
• Typical glass manufacturers list “center of glass” only
• With Curtain Wall manufacturers
• Request calculated assembly U-Values
• Request calculated assembly SHGC
• Request calculated/test infiltration rate
• Engineer requires “assembly u-value” for load & energy models
• Engineer can calculate these values

27. What is Conceptual Modeling?
Big Picture Comparisons Between Different
Building Forms & Orientations
Determine Optimal Site Specific
Synergies Between Building Systems
Optimize Orientation for Daylighting, Wind,
Thermal Massing etc.
28. What is Parametric Modeling?
Identify the Most Promising Energy-Reduction Strategies.
Compare Envelope Options
Massing Insulation Fenestration
Compare Building Systems Options
HVAC Lighting Controls Strategies
Conduct a Life Cycle Value Assessment & Reduce, Reduce, Reduce!
29. Communicate & Collaborate
• Charrettes Facilitate Collaboration
• Share information early in the design process
• Collaboration Eliminates Assumptions
30. Don’t Assume High-Performance
• MEP’s Will Make Conservative “Rule-of-Thumb”
Assumptions Unless Provided With Actual Performance
Information
• MEP’s Will Apply Safety Factors to Those Assumptions
• Conservative Assumptions and Safety Factors Lead to
Under-Performing and Over-Priced Buildings
31. Tools for High-Performance Design
• Building Information Modeling (BIM)
• Good For Coordination
• Increases Information Flow
• Does Not Reduce Design Time
• Requires Integrated Project Delivery To Be Of Real Value
• Energy Modeling
• Most Valuable When Performed Early
• Tool for Making Important Design Decisions
• Commissioning
• Necessary from Concept to Completion
33. Learning Objectives
