5 What? Building performance - a definition High Performance Building:, the term "high performance building" means a building that integrates and optimizes all major high-performance building attributes, including energy efficiency, durability, life-cycle performance, and occupant productivity... NICB. Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Public Law ) Section 914. Building Standardshttps:// 5 Quality indoor environment PAGE 5
6 Why? Built Environment consumes ~30-40% world primary energy use is where we spend ~90% of our time (i.e. indoors) combines a complex system of requirements PAGE 6

11 Performance What to assess? How to assess? Comfort & Energy [from: presentation Monica Melhado 2008, TU/e] PAGE 11
12 Conflicting requirements optimization Comfort complaints Theoretical optimum Comfort & Energy Required: - Performance indicators - Performance assessment methods Design solutions Pareto front Yearly energy use PAGE 12
13 Performance Based Building Performance approach work with the end result in mind, not the means. Performance is about what a building has to do, not how it is built. A building needs to be assessed on its performance in an objective manner. Design Construction Use Demolition Alternative: prescriptive approach PAGE 13
14 Performance based building Prescriptive versus performance Turn left at the next traffic lights, then take the fourth street to the right, go right ahead at the first roundabout, turn to the right at the second rondabout and keep the left lane, then turn.. 7S815 Jan Hensen / Marcel Loomans 14 [from: key note presentation on PeBBu, Dik Spekkink, CIB Conference, Helsinki, 2005] PAGE 14

16 Performance Based Building A (simple) example Have meetings with max. 25 attendants in different settings (theatre/round table) Performance requirements Air quality near persons: high (e.g. CO 2 <1000 ppm) Thermal comfort: high (e.g < PMV < 0.2) Speech intelligibility: Illuminance: high (e.g reverberation time: sec; back ground noise (external sources): max.35 db(a)) high (e.g. table illuminance level: min.500 lux) Yearly energy use: Peak cooling load: medium (e.g. <60 W/m 2 ) low (e.g. <100 kwh/m 2.a) [based on key note presentation on PeBBu, Dik Spekkink, CIB Conference, Helsinki, 2005] PAGE 16

19 Performance indicator (PI) Performance indicator Property of a product, building part of building that represents the performance of it in relation to the performance requirement set. The indicator should be a quantitative, qualitative or descriptive parameter that can be assessed in a relative straightforward manner. Example: Thermal comfort PPD e.g. <10% T air, T mrt, v, RH (M, I clo ) (PI) (target value) (parameters) PAGE 19
20 Prestatie indicatoren Performance indicators Some examples Energy related: Heating energy demand; Cooling energy demand; Primary energy use Load related: Maximum heating load, Maximum cooling load Thermal comfort related: PMV, Operative temperature, Overheating hours PAGE 20
