Synopsis
1)        SMART Building Envelope
  1. Introduction to the ventilated façade system concept
  2. Benefits in terms of thermal efficiency and light shading (OTTV) and fire resistance
  3. Green building consideration when designing a smart building envelope
  4. How to design a smart building envelop in terms of materials, fixing systems, singular points (windows, corners, top and bottom of building façade)
  5. Consideration on installation
2)        Regulatory compliance to MS 1525
  1. Code of practice on energy efficiency and use of renewable energy for non-residential buildings.
  2. Mandatory for new buildings to achieve a U-value less than 0.4
  3. With the amended of Uniform Building By-Law (UBBL), the Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV) of a building is said in such a way that it should not exceed 50 W/m2. When the OTTV is higher, the thermal efficiency will become lower and the building will become hotter.
Take for example, all roofing system should be installed with insulation, or it would not comply with this standard.
  1. How the calculations of U-value will take place? What aspects do we need to take into consideration in obtaining the correct U-value? All of this will be explained during the seminar.
3)        Regulatory compliance to MS 2095
  1. Global warming is the crisis of our time
  2. The temperature on earth is constantly rising which causes massive climate disruptions
  3. Radiant barrier and reflective insulation on building materials
  4. Enforcement of MS2095 by CIDB.
  5. What is a radiant barrier? – layer of metallic foil, with low emittance, that significantly reduces the transfer of heat energy radiated from hotter surfaces to colder surfaces
  6. The radiant barrier works in such a way where it reduces radiated heat transfer rate by the combination of the low emittance/ high reflectance properties of the foil.
