SUMMARY:Next Generation Passive Solar
DESCRIPTION:Event Description \nWe all learned the principles of passive solar design in school – south facing orientation\, strategic windows\, thermal mass\, etc.\, but the old rules don’t apply in the same way. Modern buildings should still incorporate passive strategies\, including daylight and ventilation\, but they need a new spin on the implementation to account for improved insulation\, prevalence of high-performance glazing\, and efficient HVAC systems and lighting. \nLearning Objectives \n\nReview passive thermal design strategies including basic climate analysis and guidelines for orientation\, fenestration and thermal mass.\nUnderstand current science relating to the impacts of daylight and views on occupant health and learn best practices for right-sizing windows and skylights\, managing glare and selecting appropriate visible light transmittance.\nLearn strategies to develop an integrated system for ventilation\, optimizing passive systems (operable windows and skylights\, stack effect\, cross ventilation) with mechanical systems\nReview a case study to integrate passive thermal design with a high-performance envelope.\n\nLearning Units \n\n1 AIA HSW LUs pending for this course
