THE VISUAL AND ENERGETIC BENEFITS OF DAYLIGHT IN GLAZED BUILDINGS MASTER THESIS - MARCH 2017 BOLOGNA, BO

Study and analisys from a scientific point of view the daylight in relation with architecture, energy saving and new tecnology materials.

Analisys and simulation

Can we study the visual comfort in an ambience?

How do the daylight stimulate our biological cycle?

How can designer project with the daylight?

How the natural light can influence the energy saving?

From this questions I started my thesis.

The scientific studies from the decomposition of the light to circadian cycle pointed out the importance of the daylight in human life.

Infact the human being needs to stay many time in contact with the daylight everyday to stimulate the generation of melatonin and cortisol.

This ormons are very important for human life: they are responsible of the sleep cycle rhithm and, consequently, of human psychology, feelings, humor and productivity.

It was important how the Italian and European legislation dealt with this theme, which parameters should be studied to evaluate the ambience quality with daylight conditions and artificial light ones.

I have studied the innovations about the new solutions, like

special glasses and shading devices (fixed shading, mobile shading, roller blinds and curtains).

After this, I have tried to create a method that analyse the different parameters from a quantitative and qualitative point of view.

This method can be used from designers during the project concept. It use the daylight factor as a main parameter to calibrate the Relux model. After this, you can simulated all different case of sky (clear, overcast, ecc..), wall color, floor, glass, ecc‌ in every moment of the year and every time.

The case study of my thesis in the headquarters of the City of Bologna designed by the Arch. Mario Cuccinella.

The building is entirely glazed.

Users are therefore subjected to glare throughout the year, forcing them to lower the curtains.

This architectural approch caracterized most of the modern architecture and so it’s so interesting understand the potential and defects.

I have selected four different office for the orientation,

Lf dimensions and hours in which users lives this space. In this offices I used the previusly method that I created.

Whit a geometric survey , I have created each office in Relux software with the same dimensions, material, colour and light trasmittance.

In Relux I have simulated each office during the solstices and at the 9:00, 12:00, 15:00 hours.

I also survey lighting with luxmeter in each offices and, thanks to this strument, I can calibrate my Relux model by daylight factor.

The analyzes include the illuminance, daylight factor, glare and energy saving, infact, in Relux you can compare the hours in which the users lives the space and the sun hours.

It’s so interesting because you can understand how many times the users needs the artificial light to have the right illuminance in horizontal work plane.

With this analysis you can calculated the energy consumption.

The final capther talks about the different shading devices typologies that can adobt in the different offices.

The different soluctions were always not esthetic invasive for the strong identity of the architectural volumes.

With this simulaction it was evident how a good design can improved the quality of the project in terms of human comfort.

The method that I created can be used in all spaces and ambient, not only in glazed buildings.

Thanks to this, the designers can valutated the quality of the projects.

The aim of this thesis was to evaluate, from a qualitative and quantitative point of view, the relationship between daylight and artificial light.

DAYLIGHT & COMFORT STAGE - MARCH 2016 Bolzano, Italy

Relation beetween daylight, energy saving and human comfort. Study Active House theory. Creation of a processing to analyze this relation with easyer, but efficient software such as: Velux Daylight Visualizer and Relux.

Analisys and simulation

During my experince in Passive House Italy I can understand how the daylight influence the human being.

The Passive House Italy’s philosophy is more attempt about the human comfort and energy saving like in passive house concept. For this reasons, they support the concept behind the Active House’s phylosophy.

Infact, Active House create a concept radar in which analized three different aspects about the human and ambient like comfort, energy and environment; the radar can be use in all the project like renovation or new house.

All of these three arguments are in a graphic relationship.

Each of this aspect are caractherized from some different argument: •Indoor air quality; •Energy demand; •Energy supply; •Primary energy performance; •Environmental load; •Freshwater consumption; •Sustainable construction;

16

Guide and conceptual radar of the Active House philosophy.

17

DAYLIGHT & COMFORT Analisys and simulation

One of this argument is the Daylight.

Infact Active House gives some range values about daylight factor that caracterized a good lighting.

With this range, the designers can understand the quality of his project.

DF > 5% on average DF > 3% on average DF > 2% on average DF > 1% on average This approch tempt to create space for human comfort and well-being from the inside.

The strategic use of the natural daylighting defines the character of the project. So much illumination is provided that little to no artificial lighting is required during the day, even in the secondary living spaces where the skylights or suntunnels were installed.

During my stage I experimented some different software, such as, Velux Daylight Visualizer and Relux.

19

DAYLIGHT & COMFORT Analisys and simulation

This software i could use in my case study in Salò, Garda’s Lake, that i twill became the first house certificated by Active House.

This project is designed by the Arch. Eileen Mayer.

I studyed the most inhabited room, such as the living room.

I create some different model because I exploring this software and, after this, I could explain the different method that Velux Daylight Visualizer and Relux use.

The only software that I can use must be: •Free; •It can be use on both Windows and MacOS; •Easy to use I used also the Sketchup software to create the 3D model of some project with an architectural particular like double volume.

20

Simulation of the living-room by Relux software and Velux Daylight Visualizer. It was simulated with the same material, colour and orientation. With the comparison of the daylight factor (DF) it was possibile create the same study model.

HaND ACCADEMY PROJECT - MARCH 2016 BOLOGNA, BO

Design of a new bus station of Bologna: a LIVEABLE INFRASTRACTURE.

Architecture design

22

The city of Bologna has to renew its bus station, now abandoned and not very functional, but certainly rich in resources and potential. In addition to being located near the historic centre and bordering the train station (a shunting centre for all Italy), every day could accommodate thousands of students from across the city, directed to the prestigious University of Bologna.

The new bus station could then become a real place of passage, meeting, shunting, full of the new activities that will completely change the concept of â&#x20AC;&#x153;waitingâ&#x20AC;?.

NORTH ELEVATION

23

HaND Prospective views

Not just a bus station then, but a real liveable infrastructure.

According to this statement the purpose is to inter the bus station to create a permeable area at the floor livel.

The three gate caracterized the architecture and the flow of the all project.

The gates are located in strategy space with a direct access to the bus station and create a strong visual connectionsfor the users.

Bows and lines create the space and the final volume articulated with big glazed openings.

The sunblids helps the control of the daylight and the conseguent human comfort.

The new activity in the project are studys to increase the users that lives this new space.

These new services meet the needs of users coming to the bus station and Bolognaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s city.

Have a Nice Day!

CORPUS DOMINI CHURCH’S ELEVATION ACCADEMY PROJECT - DECEMBER 2015 BOLOGNA, BO

Historical study and thecnical analisys of the Corpus Domini Church’s. A summary of Bologna’s history and it’s pubblic figure.

Search and Analysis

In this Academy project I analyzed the Corpus Domini elevation.

Corpus Domini, infact, is one of the most famous church in Bologna.

It’s in Tagliapietre road, where, in II century a.C., flowed Aposa river, a sourch of supply.

Subsequently it was buried and replaced by streets.

During a excavations from 2006 to 2009 it was found that the area was very important for the comunity, infact, it was a venue of religious and productive activity.

Since the Napoleonic period, the area was used as a barracks and for this reason, on October 5, 1943, it was bombarded.

The main historic buildings of Bologna were destroyed.

It was Sir. Alfredo Barbacci to deal with the restructuring of the Corpus Domini Church.

Thanks to Barbacci the Church recover its beauty with a selective architectural operation.

During this work I have studied the different layer of the elevation and proposed some different operation to improve the facade.

A special operation had proposed in main entrance because it’s in faience and it’s more decorative.

RESIDENTIAL HOUSE ACCADEMY PROJECT - DECEMBER 2012 MODENA, ITALY

A tipical gotich site of Emilia-Romagna with two blind sides. A wooden house with high energy efficient and comfort. Xlam tecnology.

Architecture design and details

Gotich site are so tipical in Emilia-Romagna.

This architecture system is form by two blind sides, a commercial ground floor in one side and in other side there’s the access of the residential house (first and second floor).

So, there are two different point access, one for commercial activities and one for residential.

The project is situated in “Villaggio Artigiano”, Modena, Italy.

The new house is caractherized from a commercial ground floor (lawyer’s studio) and residential first and second floor.

The technology choose is Xlam. With this structural chooise it’s possibile create a efficient system from a sismic and energetic point of view.

Emilia-Romagna is often hit by earthquake and so it was important found a opportunity tecnology system.

The sheed roof has got a opportunity orientation to massimize the solar energy, infact, some solar pannels are distribute over the roof.

This wooden house has got an efficient thermal system by wooden fiber coat, good shading system and optimization of architecture space (living-room and beedroom).
