Comfort
• One way to achieve visual AND thermal
comfort is external shading
• What about internal shading?
• How do we optimize this?

• Which timeframe is shading necessary?
e.g. summer only? + some shoulder seasons?
• Solve for overhang depth, x
(or solve for h if you know what you want x to be)
• Think about your climate, program, what proportions
make sense, window head heights, etc.
• Remember: this is only for the South façade
• We use this as a starting point, and then move to
analysis to understand the daylight and glare
conditions inside

Maybe you have horizontal louvers
rather than an overhang -> shading masks

Building Shading
Remember these rules of thumb:
This is not just for visual comfort, but also
for thermal comfort. Remember – external
shading blocks solar gains from the façade.
We will talk more about thermal comfort
next class.

But what does this mean?
This is for you to figure out in your homework.
Remember to always include a legend with units / north arrow – it is meaningless without it !
Use an appropriate scale to show a gradient & differences between façades.

Façade design
Where do you want to place windows based on orientation, program, etc?
• Think about punched openings vs curtainwall
• Potential focused work: glass design, daylight simulations

![Page 34: High Performance Building Design CIV ENV 395… · High Performance Building Design CIV_ENV 395 Week 4: Comfort & Façade Design October 9, 2017](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071019/5fd389c12831ca718c683483/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• With better thermal insulation, it may be possible to have a higher glazing
percentage; U-value and WWR are tradeoffs that can be balanced to
achieve optimal overall energy performance.
• For cold climates: There are cases where triple glazing has eliminated the
need for perimeter heating. Better performing glass can also result in less
drafts.
• Think about how all of this comes together in low-E coatings, frit, glazing-
integrated PVs, and electrochromic glass.

Assignment #4:
Comfort / Façade Design
![Page 38: High Performance Building Design CIV ENV 395… · High Performance Building Design CIV_ENV 395 Week 4: Comfort & Façade Design October 9, 2017](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071019/5fd389c12831ca718c683483/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Assignment #4: Façade / ShadingOverall goal:
Begin thinking about your façade design & what shading strategies you will implement.
1. Shading cutoff calculation
Perform a shading cutoff calculation with the method of your choice. Document it fully.
• If you were to implement horizontal shading elements on the south façade, how deep
would you make them and why?
• Are you planning for overhangs, lightshelves, louvers, a combination, or none of these?
2. Solar radiation map
Given the solar radiation results, display your findings in whatever format you like.
You must explain the following:
• Do you think our building’s orientation is optimal?
• Note the differences by façade and begin thinking about corresponding strategies. Each
façade should be represented using graphics & text (you can use axonometric views).
e.g. The north façade has an average solar radiation of 500 kWh/m2, and should be the target.
The West has an average solar radiation of 1200 kWh/m2, and we plan to use automated
venetian blinds to reduce it down to the target.
3. Based on 1 & 2, begin mapping out where you plan to have windows and what shading strategy you
will use. You can use whatever medium you like e.g. Rhino model, sketches, etc.
