Research Project

Due to the nature of the project site, it was important that the project used sustainable methods of assessment to achieve the goals set out by authoritative bodies to help fight against greenhouse gas emissions, especially in cities. The research project looked to evaluate the way in which building energy simulation tools could aid early design decisions related to energy performance, the results of which have been applied to the project.
