Hawaii Preparatory Academy achieved LEED Platinum and secured a Living Building Challenge certication for its Energy Laboratory.
The Energy Lab is dedicated to the study of alternative energy systems and is a net-zero energy building. Energy demand is reduced through passive and active systems integrated in the project, including passive solar design strategies, natural ventilation, natural daylighting, optimization strategies and high eciency systems. Clean energy is generated by integrating various renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power. The project is also water neutral and integrates systems for capturing, treating and reuse so all its water needs are provided from rain.

SENSORY DESIGN

ENGINEERING
THE BUILDING EXPERIENCE
Buildings are designed in units of feet, fahrenheit and foot candles but the experience they create is something personal, requiring descriptive terms such as alertness level, comfort and meaning. Buro Happolds work bridges the gap between occupant and technology. Our investment in sensory design research is an examination of how the combination of lighting, thermal environment, acoustics and aromas combine to produce a building experience that leads to increased satisfaction and more productive occupants.

25

Facts 10 15
percent lifetime cost of building construction percent lifetime cost of facilities management

Sensory design research studies how an individuals sensory experience is understood in terms of physical parameters and the human experience, and what the relationship between these two are. It asks how the ambience of the building contributes to the user experience. In practice this means understanding why some buildings are easy to control, have plenty of fresh air, daylight, good acoustics and are the right temperature at the right time while others are not. It also means understanding what the clients needs are so that spaces are correctly specied. In understanding the research that underpins building codes, we can also excel where it is appropriate to the project. At Buro Happold we think beyond how our design aects the construction and maintenance costs, taking into consideration the wellbeing and productivity of future occupants as well.

At Buro Happold we have been working on high performance building design for over 30 years. In our experience, the way forward has always been exemplied by focused and integrated leadership, working within a regulatory system that is continually tightening design codes and incentivizing new technologies; and framed by a central energy policy that is reducing the carbon foot print of the electrical supply. The challenges faced present huge opportunity for our profession to not only respond with respect to the architecture but also to continue to raise awareness of the issue of global warming to our political leaders for only if fresh direction can be achieved at this level can the ultimate goal be achieved.

The supermodel...
A partnership between three national laboratories, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and Pacic Northwest National Laboratory, as well as the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA), funded the Commercial Building Partnership (CBP) program. A technical expert team consisting of Buro Happold and HOK has been created to design and develop a set of energy ecient, market-ready building solutions for the Oregon Sustainability Center (OSC) and the Clark Atlanta University Center (CAUC). The idea was to develop net carbon zero building design solutions that could be widely deployed throughout the US commercial building sector.

Facade optimization analysis was conducted to nd the optimal balance between solar control and daylight ingress.

Shallow plan oor plates maximize potential for natural ventilation and daylight harvesting.

As part of the collaboration, we developed and determined practical and cost eective design measures to achieve energy reduction goals and targets. In the case of the Oregon Sustainability Center, our team set out to design a building with the target of achieving net zero energy use. With these targets in mind, we deployed our vast experience in the design and delivery of trend setting low energy buildings, including application of state of the art daylight, thermal, and computational uid dynamics modeling. Our ongoing role will extend not only through the design development phase of the project but also through construction oversight and critical post occupancy evaluations.

The Morphosis Studio uses Monodraught Windcatchers, the rst ever installation in the United States.
The new 11,600 square foot building is a two story open plan oce space with meeting rooms, a mezzanine level, and a workshop. Sustainability features include maximized natural ventilation combined with night purge cooling utilizing the building thermal mass and an expandable photovoltaic system. During hot summer days, the building can be conditioned through a low velocity displacement ventilation system bringing cooled air through a raised oor plenum. The open plan workspace and mezzanine are naturally ventilated, while the shop, conference room, kitchen and ancillary spaces are mechanically ventilated. Natural daylight is maximized through the open plan workspace and with the use of 23 skylights with integrated light xtures and daylight sensors. A 62.4 mega watt hour photovoltaic array osets about half of the projects gross energy consumption. Further improvements in energy savings, along with the possibility of additional PV panels will get Morphosis closer to their goal of net-zero energy.

The Perot Museum of Nature and Science achieved LEED Gold certication and fullls the museums mission to inspire minds through nature and science.
Formed by the merger of three museums, the 5 story 180,000 square foot Morphosisdesigned building serves as the new home for the Perot Museum of Nature and Science. A comprehensive water recycling strategy was incorporated into the building design, allowing storm water run-o from the site and condensate from mechanical equipment to be diverted into two cisterns, which in turn treat water to varying levels and degrees depending on the use and nature. These cisterns are interlocked to allow intelligent water sharing, allowing the use and re-distribution of water throughout the site. A building dash port using BMS trending and metering data is used to educate visitors on the various uses of the recycled water; while visually, using two distinctive water features, visitors will be able to see the movement of storm water from the building to the cisterns. This recycling strategy met 100% of the buildings irrigation needs and generated 70% potable water savings for sewage conveyance.

The Transbay Transit Center is our largest commission undertaken in the bay area.
As a multi-modal transit hub the Transbay Transit Center, situated in downtown San Francisco, will serve as the terminus for the future California High Speed Rail Link, providing bus, rail, and light rail systems throughout California. Alongside transportation facilities, the Transbay Transit Center will house retail and entertainment functions as well as a 5.4 acre rooftop park.

...invaluable in creating and evaluating innovative and cost eective solutions for comfort ventilation, natural day lighting, energy optimization, and solar impacts...their eorts have been instrumental in exceeding the clients goal of a LEED Silver rating for the facility...
Randolph J. Volenec Senior Project Manager, Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects

The rst phase of the project is to create a new 5 story Transit Center with one above grade bus level, ground oor concourse and two below grade rail levels. To regulate temperature and achieve comfort conditions for 95% of the year, natural ventilation combined with night-time cooling of the building thermal mass and automatic motorized windows is utilized in the grand hall, along with a peak lopping radiant oor which provides relief for extreme temperature periods. Through design of the roof deck, 100% daylighting was achieved in the Grand Hall, while on the Bus Deck level, 100% daylighting was achieved using solar tubes that directed sunlight down from the roof park. Fixed openings on the facade, along with 14 de-stratication fans, provide natural ventilation along with regulating carbon monoxide from bus exhaust. To address all aspects of water conservation, a holistic water management system was incorporated to store and reuse storm water, as well as reduce total potable water use in the Transit Center by half. The Transbay Transit Center project will strive to achieve LEED Gold certication.

DAVID HERD BEng (Hons) CEng MIEE Principal

David Herd leads the MEP design teams in the West Coast region. His design philosophy is that successful environmental design is achieved through inuencing the architectural language, form, function and fabric of a building, master plan or landscape to minimize the environmental impact of energy, water, material, and waste.

David believes buildings should respond to the environmental context of the site to optimize the passive design of the building; integrate hybrid HVAC systems that harness natural ventilation; and be supplied with electricity and hot water from renewable sources. Our response to the iconic Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center demonstrates this very concept, through 100% passive heating and natural ventilation for over 75% of the year 100% naturally day lit and powered by a 120kW PV array.
